The Nursery

We are still continuing to get things to go in Haley's nursery so that it is fully "stocked" and ready for her arrival. I thought I would share a few pictures taken recently in the nursery for those of you who wanted an additional "sneak peak" of our progress. Only a few more things left to go and it is done!

Mike put his artistic talents to work and created this adorable artwork for Haley's room. We now have it framed and on the wall. It looks so good!

Still so much to do...

There is still so much left to do before Haley gets here! I thought I was prepared at home, but as we keep getting gifts, I realize more and more how we don't have stuff as organized as it probably should be. We are getting close though so that is a relief. Now if I could just get close at work, I would be a happy girl!

Mike practiced putting together the pack n' play so that we know how to set it up for those first few nights when Haley is home. It was a lot harder than we thought it would be, but we finally figured it out!

Mike had a fun time folding all of her clothes and trying to figure out which type of outfit was a onesie, a footed sleeper, or a two piece. It was pretty funny.

It has been quite a challenge trying to figure out where to put all of her clothes! I have no idea how to organize the drawers so that it makes sense. We finally just decided to put them in there and when she gets here we know we will likely have to move things.

Mike's Work Surprise Shower

Everyone at Danker pulled a good one on the dad-to-be and threw a shower last week. They had a cute cake, balloons, and a ton of presents for us. Everyone chipped in and got something to donate to the basket. We got tons of stuff for Haley that we can't wait to use...homemade hair bows, bottles, car seat toys, clothes, a tummy play mat, safety products, you name it! We even got a pair of pink Georgia booties! It was really sweet of them to think of us.

Hometown Shower

It was so great to be around family and friends for the Bainbridge shower on October 25. We are so blessed to have such a loving family that was willing to put on an awesome shower for us! Mama and Becky did so much to make it special for us.
I was so happy Grandma Davis was there to share the special day.

My sister did the neatest thing!! She made a diaper wreath for us that has a sign in the center where you write the baby's birth weight, length, etc. She spent a lot of time working on it and it turned out so good! Her friend Jackie helped her on it too. I can't wait to get it hung on Haley's door and get to fill in the information when she is born! Aunt Becky Rocks!

We had a ton of food! It was pretty neat because the lady that did the food for our wedding was the one who did the food for the shower. It was yummy and we had a lot of leftovers. And look what a great job she did of displaying it!

Look at all the presents for our spoiled little girl! We got some really neat stuff. Lots of diapers which will be useful, some cute outfits, and a high chair. Mom Judy, Pops, and Lorie came early to deliver their gifts on their way to the FSU game. So we were glad to get to see them while we were home.

It was a great weekend but I was kind of sad to go because I don't plan on taking another trip South for several more weeks. One thing is for sure, it will definitely be a different holiday season this year for the Parsons household!
