Patiently (or not) Waiting

Today is the DUE DATE!! But still no baby Vuong :(

Over the last week since my mom has been in town we have completed the following "nesting" activities (with Son's help too):

Moved all furniture & cleaned floors

Dusted - everything!

Re-organized and cleaned out pantry & fridge

Bought & hung wall & other decorative items in the house

Weeded front yard flower beds & planted new flowers

Re-organized cabinets in bathrooms & scrubbed every square inch of the bathrooms

Bought new throw pillows for our bedroom

5 million loads of laundry - Son & I have never had so many clean clothes in our lives!

Found laundry basket for baby room & sewed new lining out of matching nursery fabric

Painted, framed & hung wall decorations in baby room

Found & hung mirror in baby room over changing table

Covered nursing stool in baby room

Installed car seat base in both cars

Re-organized baby closet & assembled baby monitor & bath tub

Visited Collin's school so my mom could see where he will be staying

Gone shopping multiple times - at least 1x per day!

The only problem is that we have pretty much cleaned every inch of the house, bought/hung up every type of decorative item that I had been putting off getting for the house, and done anything we could possibly think of in the baby's room...so now that we are officially ready, Collin is still not cooperating.

I am thinking about even resorting to going to work for a little while tomorrow! Seriously - this is getting desperate!!

Here are some pictures of what we have been up to lately...

Our friends Jeff & Rachel stopped by on Easter Sunday! We were hoping that baby Collin would be here for them to meet, but they will be back in town again in May.

Yes, I realize that I look like total crap in this picture - but I had a terrible migrane the night before & only slept from about 8am until noon. I was super upset that I wasn't able to make it to church on Easter Sunday!

Here are Son & Beau relaxing after a hard day of work!

Son & De-de hanging the pictures that we painted for Collin's room - they did the hard work & I just sat on the floor saying "a little to the left, no, to the right".

Car seat installation - Son reading the directions (only because I asked him too - hey, Collin's life may depend on it!) & of course Beau had to help us. Then the finished installation in my car.

I have another doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon - so hopefully we will see more progress then! Big numbers, please!
