House tour

So the nursery is officially done!  I am sure that we will be adding to it as we go, but we have all of the things in place that we need (minus a hamper) and I am so happy with how it came out.  Today we are 4 weeks away, 36 weeks!  I can hardly believe it.  I am going back to work on Monday which means summer is coming to an end, but I have had a great summer.  I have been busy but also able to relax when I needed to.  I was saying to Damien last night that I would love to plan to have our next baby around the same time (not anytime soon though) because even though it was hot, it really didn't bother me.  I have loved having these few months to get ready for Max to be here and I think it has really helped me keep my sanity. I am not sure I would feel as great if I were working full time through the entire 3rd trimester.  But who knows.  We didn't plan our first and I am thinking we may not plan our second.  Let's just see what happens.

I can honestly say that this whole experience has brought Damien and I so much closer.  I couldn't have imagined that we could get any closer, but then we spend nights laying around, his hand on my belly, watching our baby move around inside of me and I realize what we were missing.  I know you don't have to have a baby to be close to your partner, but I think the experience has been amazing for our relationship.  Now we can't wait for him to be here with us...

I am including pictures of our house.  Some are older pictures that I have posted before but I wanted to put them all together, more for me, to see what an wonderful home we have made for ourselves.  Hope you enjoy the house tour!
