Chandeliers, Showers, and Giraffes!!

Well last week I went into full nesting mode and felt a huge urge to get the nursery organized!!  I think I sent Ryan an email of 30 things we needed to get done :)  Well I'm happy to say we got most things checked off our list.  Ryan spent a good portion of last weekend putting Hadleigh's chandelier up and it looks AMAZING!!  He did such a great job! We organized her closet, washed clothes, and got the room in order. 
I came down with the flu last weekend and I'm just now starting to feel human again, so Ryan has been a savior in helping get things put together. He even had a giant giraffe delivered to the house the other day for his little girl :)  I think it is about 4 feet tall!  So cute and looks great in the nursery.  I can already see that Hadleigh is going to be a daddy's girl!
Two weeks ago we were blessed by wonderful friends and family with a baby shower.  Hadleigh was one lucky girl and received some amazing gifts!!  It was a wonderful day :)  The hostesses went above and beyond and made the day so special. They even had M&M's with her name on them....so cute!  Thank you again to everyone who came, it was a great day of sweet memories. 
Well, we had a Dr apt on Monday and it looks like our little girl has done a flip or two in my tummy because she is now breech...yikes!  The Dr scheduled an ultrasound for next week just to make sure.  If that's the case they want to get me on the books for a c-section, but reassured us that she still has a few more weeks to get back to where we want her to be.  This Momma REALLY doesn't want to have a c-section, so we are hoping she flips again!  Everything else was right on target at the doctor.  Her heart rate was great and she is measuring perfectly :)  We are getting anxious and ready for her arrival, and feeling very blessed that we have a healthy little girl!
Here are a few fun pics of the nursery :)


The chandelier that daddy put together piece by piece....so pretty!

 Our last little project is to put up a couple shelves above her dresser.

  1. I honestly want to live in Hadleigh's room! It is just gorgeous. You should be very proud of yourselves for doing that. She is a lucky baby. I have been thinking about you a lot over the past weeks. I am sooo excited for you and what is to come. You will LOVE it. Oh..November 2nd is mine and Chad's anniversary. I did not realize that was your due date until your mom told me at bunco. Yes, I played bunco. Take care!

  2. Thanks Katie! We had a lot of fun decorating...even though I know it will be another month or so before she is even sleeping in there :) Looks like Hadleigh will be coming a little earlier than expected. We are checking into the hospital on Sunday for an induction...yikes!! Hope you guys are all doing well and Happy EARLY Anniversary!!
