Oh, baby, we're ready!! (38 weeks and counting)

Last night I figured it was probably time to set up the bassinet (nesting instinct kicking in, perhaps?), which involved moving my dresser into the living room, so now John and I both have to get dressed in the "dining room." Ahhh...the joys of living in a tiny cabin.

Bassinet tucked into a corner of our bedroom.

Other than that, now we have a diaper station set up and lots of pajamas and blankets ready to go. Not exactly a "nursery" but it will work for now.

Thanks, Jill for sending the dipes from Germany!


Bookshelf is now a baby shelf...except for the big red thing. That's my microscope.


Get ready, Nora. Change is coming!

On the list of predictions, no one has guessed that the baby will come this week, but that got me to thinking about the weekly probability that the baby will arrive. This figure comes from odds my sister posted on her website, so I can't vouch for their accuracy, however. :)

P.S. Nice graph. Good to see that you're using all those skills you developed in grad school.

We bought the bassinet (bedding came with it) secondhand for $35 off craigslist. Yay, craigslist!!

Maybe if you're really lucky you'll go two weeks late like I did :)
