It's all coming together

After several months of looking at furniture, bedding, themes, and all sorts of decorations, we finally made decisions on what the nursery would look like (or at least what we "hoped" it would end up looking like)


We ended up getting the changing table and dresser early in the process, while we held off ordering the crib until the nervous anxiety that Erin was feeling b/c Hudson had no place to sleep finally got to be overwhelming


So far we've been very pleased w/ how our "Classic Coastal" theme has come through.....we wanted something unique but something that was also important to us.....what better than images/decor from the coast in a classy presentation?  The only thing missing is the salt spray and sand spurs


While we still have a little cleaning up to do and some additional decorations to hang, the nursery is coming together and we're pleased with how it's turned out......baby Hudson will have a nice, comfortable, peaceful place (at least we hope it's peaceful at 2 in the morning) to call his own

Multi-purpose chair

I can see this being a place where the boy can kick back and relax, he can sit and read, or it could be used when he needs to take some time off and learn the finer parts of discipline (he'll get that quality from his daddy I'm sure)

Who knew that a baby needed so much stuff!?!?!?!

A few pics of things Erin got at her shower.....(Abby just wanted to make sure she wasn't going to be forgotten)


The camo came from Aunt Francis....she said Hudson was gonna need something to wear while he helps hang stands, cut shooting lanes, plant food plots, and build duck blinds out at the farm......he might even wear this home from the hospital (not really....his mama has already squashed that idea)





Benefits.....

While being pregnant has it's drawbacks, there are some big (no pun intended) upsides
Gotta love that sheepish grin.....that pose w/ food in hand (and in mouth)
has been a common theme throughout.....baby Hudson needs lots
of nourishment!

Even Max recognized the fact that it helps to be able to rest your plate on your belly!!!
Now we won't need to go out and buy tv trays :-)

Something happens when you reach the 30 week mark


The first thought is....."Oh crap!  I'm about to be responsible for another human being in only 10 weeks!!!!"


However, you also get to the point where you become more and more exited and ready to see the thing that moves all around your wife's belly like an alien...


Erin asked me alot if I thought that people could tell she was pregnant....."Nope!  Looks like a torpedo hit you in the back and got stuck in your belly button!"
