Baby's Room!


Hello All!

I just wanted to give a little update. We just finished the baby's room yesterday afternoon after church. All I have to do is pack the bags for the hospital and get the car seat in the car. It is so exciting to see how the Lord has worked everything out and how everything has come together. All my worrying about getting everything done for nothing. God is good.

The baby's room is done. We ordered furniture a week ago from this past Thursday and were told 7 to 14 days till it came in. I was hoping it would be more on the 7 day end instead of 14. Well, Wednesday during the late afternoon I received a call from BabiesRUs telling me that our furniture was in. Most of it was in on Tuesday and the last piece came in on Wednesday. Needless to say I was very excited that it came in early. The one thing we have to figure out was how to get the furniture to our house. The only days you can pick up furniture is Tuesday through Thursday from 5 - 7 PM, or Saturday from 9:30 till 11:00 AM. Well, we didn't have it delivered because it cost over $100 to do that. So, we contacted one friend of ours who is finishing our basement to see if he could help us and he was busy. We contacted our neighbors to see about their help and they were busy. So, a little later our neighbors called up and worked somthing out and we were able to borrow their truck to go pick up our furniture Thursday night. We got home with the furniture and Stan and our neighbor unloaded everything and unpacked everything in the babies room. The fun thing was that every box had that white foam in it, so our house looked like Buffalo in the winter. Lots of white snow everywhere.

Anyway, on Friday night Stan, Emily and I put all the furniture together, dusted it and put it where we wanted it in the room. My dad is in Africa on a missions trip, so my mom came to spend the weekend with us here in Pasadena, MD. On Saturday my mom and I got all the clothes and everything washed, put away, and done. On Sunday afternoon after church before mom left to go home, we hung the wall hangings and now, the room is complete!!

Lastly, I just wanted to let you know I have posted more pictures of the completed room so you can see what our sons room looks like.

Thank you for all your prayers as we await the blessed arrival of our wonderful miracle.
