Nesting Should Be Called Spending...

I am trying to rationalize that everything I'm spending money on has a purpose and will be useful. However, my nesting has turned into a bunch of baby stuff stacked up around my house. I read the other day that I should be compulsively cleaning, instead I feel like I'm hoarding!

On a lighter note, I have discovered my creative gene and made some really cute stuff for Curryn's room! (Okay... this might be the spending part that was more for fun than use) I subsided to putting her name on the wall. At first, I thought it was dumb because well... duh! I know what her name is and whose room it is! Alas, there was a 50% sale at Hobby Lobby (that store is the devil!) and I bought the letters for $1.50 each! The actual decorating wasn't that expensive either, used leftover fabric and only spent a couple of bucks on the accessories! I think they turned out pretty cute!

The painting in the nursery is almost done, I picked up the framed Dali butterfly poster from... you guessed it, Hobby Lobby (50% off framing) today and can't wait to put it all together and get her home. I'm guessing a lot of remaining decorating will happen after she is born. I have roughly 3 weeks to go, washing up the baby clothes I know she will be wearing home from the hospital and in the first week or so of her life! I also have my bags packed! Now... the fun part, waiting!

I have a doctor appointment tomorrow (weather pending) and will know more about when I might be able to expect her arrival! Which be awesome because the not knowing is driving me absolutely insane! More updates to come! :)
