We finally rearranged our bedroom to make space for the cradle. Stewart and I switched sides of the bed so I'd be closer to the cradle, and it feels so weird to sleep on the "wrong" side. This morning when the alarm went off I almost smacked Stewart's head, because it was right about where my alarm clock used to be when I slept on the other side. It's going to take a little getting used to.
The cradle is so beautiful....my grandparents had it made for me when I was born, and both my brother and I slept in it as infants. I have ordered a cradle mattress which should be here soon. Look how pretty!
We did a little after-Christmas shopping, and I splurged on a couple things for the baby. I've been very good about not spending money on baby clothes, especially since we still have one more shower coming up this weekend. I think this was actually only the third time I've bought anything since finding out I was pregnant. The little sleeper was only $3.99....yay for post-holiday sales!
We've also gotten some super cute outfits from friends lately...
I go back to school tomorrow, hopefully for four full weeks. Surprisingly, I hadn't been dreading going back like I thought I would. BUT then I woke up with a sore throat this morning that has gotten progressively worse, so now I'm wishing I could just stay bundled up on the couch tomorrow. It's going to be a rough month at work, because they are expecting me to do about four months worth of paperwork in the next four weeks. Of course I wasn't informed about this until the week before Christmas break (and I refused to do any work over the holiday.) So I have quite a daunting task ahead of me, but I'm going to try my best not to get too stressed about it.
Here's the weekly picture. We're not sure why there's such a weird shadow....
The cradle is beautiful!
