Ready and Waiting...

Well, we feel like we are as ready as we can be for this little boy to come! I took some pics of his room. We have gotten everything we can think of, thanks to family mostly for letting us borrow so much. It's truly been a blessing!

This is the cutest thing ever!! We wanted scrubs for Dawson to wear home from the hospital and we finally found a site online where they make them newborn size. they are so tiny and so stinkin cute! They just got here yesterday and we are so excited!
The best part about the scrubs is that we got his name embroidered on them! He's going to be leaving the hospital in great style right?

Here is the changing table that we got from a co-worker of Jenny's. We had to nail it and fix it up and paint it... Jenny's mom made 3 changing pad covers! She is amazing! The chair goes with our living rm furniture, but we decided to put the glider in the living room and the chair in here.

You'd think he has enough clothes right? Well, to let you know we have bought 1 shirt and then his hospital outfit. The rest... yep, borrowed. Jenny's sister Jori had a baby boy last october, so all of his clothes are the right season and size for our baby. She was so sweet for letting us borrow so much of her stuff. (literally everything) Also, J.D.'s sister in law Molly had a baby boy 1 1/2 ago and she let us borrow chairs, toys, blankets and clothes as well.AND also, Jenny's sister in law Jamie had a little boy 2 1/2 years ago and she loaded us up with tons of clothes as well! We love family!
And this is the lovely stroller/carseat that J.D. was pushing around the house in the last blog. Thank you so much Grandma Shelley! It is so dang cute!
This is the highchair that we recieved at Jenny's baby shower up north. Before we moved, our work threw Jenny a baby shower and our boss got us this highchair! We wanted it so badly and thought it was so cute, AND it matches our table!! We could not believe that her and her husband actually got it for us. Thank you so much Jill & Scott!
also this summer, J.D. promised Jenn that he'd build a crib for the baby. so here are the workings of that.
2 sides done!
He is so amazing and talented! I am so blessed! Plus he is very good looking! :)
And here is the finished product. Thank you again Grandma Shelley for the crib set! It is the exact one we wanted and Dawson is going to love it!

We really are so blessed and thank you all of you who helped us out with so much stuff. We have plenty to last for years we feel like. Please pray that we have him soon because I'm soooo ready to not be pregnant for awhile. :)

Your crib turned out awesome- we love it! I can't believe you guys are already having your baby, we haven't even seen you pregnant yet! Hope your doing good. We also have that exact car seat/stroller-what are the odds:)! Hope to see you soon. Love,
Chet, Bobi Sue and Tayee

Looks like you guys are good to go with everything. I'm sure it's nice to get the hand-me-downs. I'm kinda hoping Sarah and Kim have a couple kids before I do so that I can be fortunate enough to do the same. I can't wait to see pics of Dawson on here. If he's anything like you two I'm sure he'll be very cute! Hope the last bit of the pregnancy goes well. You're almost there!

WOW, a personally hand made crib and name on his scrubs, What a STYLING boy. Wouldn't you just die if "she " comes? The bouncy chair thing in the bottom of he closet is the best thing ever invented!!!!!!!!!!!! Mik was the happiest girl in it. Steve and I leave tomorrow for Kass' Basic grad and don't get back until late Monday. Talk to Dawson and let him know he needs to wait a week!!!!!!!! I'm sure he wants to wait!;) Make sure Brie calls us if you decided not to wait. For the life of me I can't imagine why you want him out. Then you can hear him cry and life is not your own anymore!!
