we will know the gender of our baby!!! The nurse called today and the ultrasound is set up for next Tuesday at 11:00. The latest appointment they have is 3:00 which means I would have to leave school early. My plan is from 10-11 then I team teach a class from 11 - 12:30 with lunch in between. I am sure if I beg my partner teacher he will watch our 8 kids while we have the ultrasound, that way I can get back for class by 12:30 and not have to take any time off. I can not believe that I am far along enough to find out the gender! Knowing the sex of our baby is going to be such a turning point in the pregnancy. I can actually start looking at clothing, bedding, names etc. and know what I'm buying for. It will also make it a lot more real to me. I have hardly done anything to prepare for the baby. I keep thinking, oh its early on and I'll wait until I know the sex of the baby before I start preparing for that. Well now that time is here! It is so exciting, and overwhelming!!
In preparation for the baby coming, we spent our Labor Day cleaning out the baby room. The closet in the baby room has been our main storage so we actually cleaned out other closets in order to make room for the stuff in the closet currently in the baby room. So technically we haven't touched the baby room, but we are close! Clay made a couple of items to help with our organization.
He made this rack to put my shoes on. There is a huge space to the left of the closet that you can't see but I was able to stack some clothes in tubs that I won't be able to wear while I am pregnant.
This closet is in our living room. It only had a bar at the top and no shelf space so the floor was all that was used. He built shelves so we can stack stuff in there. This is what it looks like now after we cleaned it out on Monday. There is plenty of room for stuff from the baby room closet.
So within the next few weeks the baby room should be cleaned out and ready to start becoming a nursery! And next Tuesday we will know if that will be pink or blue! Can't wait!!
