Baby Furniture

We finally decided on baby furniture...yeah! We ordered it yesterday from B.F. Myers and it should arrive in about 4-6 weeks. It is the New Haven collection from Young America...we ordered the crib, the door chest, and the double dresser. I can't wait till it gets in and we can set up his room. My parents also ordered me an awesome glider chair (thank you!!!)...it feels like you are sitting in a cloud, I love it! I'll post pictures as soon as everything comes in.
Matt goes out of town on Wednesday for a few days. : ( This will be the first time he has been out of town since early in my pregnancy...I'm really going to miss him! I'm lucky that he hasn't had to travel much this summer- last summer it seems like we barely saw each other. At least Shanda & Matt are just a couple houses down if I need anything. Hopefully Shanda won't have Meredith while he's out of town...I don't want him to miss all the fun and excitement! : ) I can't wait till Miss Meredith comes though...she is going to be so precious and her aunt already adores her!
My next doctor's appointment will be on August 1st...that's when I have to take the glucose test, so hopefully everything will come back good. I'll keep you updated!

Update #3

Just wanted to post a quick update. I've been feeling great the last couple weeks- not really any morning sickness and more energy! My next doctor's appointment is on August 1st…it will just be a regular checkup, other than taking my glucose test. I feel our baby moving every day now…he is definitely getting stronger! Usually he moves a lot when I get hungry and when I lay down to go to sleep. I didn't go to bed till after midnight last night…Matt was painting in the nursery (all we have left is the trim now, so we should be finished painting tonight), and I was trying to clean our house for Shanda's scrapbook shower on Saturday. Well, apparently, midnight is when baby really wakes up…I've never felt him move so much and it took him a while to settle down (it even felt like he did a roundhouse in there!), so who knows what time I finally was able to get to bed! : ) Guess that's just a little glimpse of what's to come!
We're hoping to look at baby furniture this weekend and we're still trying to come up with a name. Everything we really like doesn't work with our last name. Once we decide on some favorites, I'll post them on the site.
Thanks for checking to see how we're doing!
