36 Weeks!

Well we are now only 3.5 weeks away from meeting our new little bundle of joy! We have the room finished and our bags are packed for the hospital! When we went to the doctor on Monday she measured at 7lbs 3oz. The doctor said she could get to 9lbs if we go full term. ( I am hoping she comes earlier though.)

With extra fabric that I had left over from the curtains and wall decorations, I decided to make a quilt to go on the bed. I measured the quilt but not to fit in the crib and it was the exact size for the crib! I was so excited when it was finished and fit the bed perfectly. My mother in law came to help me finish it because it was my first quilt and I didn't know the best way to put the batting and back on. She taught me so much. This little girl is already so blessed with wonderful extended family that love her so much!
Here are pictures of the quilt and process.

All of the fabric is measured but not sewn together at this point. 

The quit before putting on the backing. 

This is after we measured the backing and before we sewed it on to have a border. 

Here is the finished quit. The gray and white polka-dots is the fabric I used on the back. 

Here is the quilt on the bed with the matching bumpers that I had made on Etsy. I think it turned out pretty good!

I am so excited to bring her home to her new room that we have worked so hard on. I know that people say that pregnant women normally nest the last few weeks of pregnancy. I feel that I have nested the entire pregnancy! Here are the most recent pictures of the nursery as it is now finished!

Not a very good picture, but this is standing in the door way. 

This is the dresser and changing table with reading table on the left. 

The crib finished. One of my favorite things in the room!

The wood we used for this hair bow holder is from my Grandparents barn. It was also used in our wedding for signs. 

Our bags are packed and ready to go!
