Preparations

It has been an exiting couple of weeks. Emily went to a breastfeeding class, we toured one of the two hospitals we might deliver at, we had a doctor's appointment and got to meet another member of the practice, and we (Matt) painted the nursery. It's blue! We recently received the crib bedding and accessories which we used to pick the room color. Also Matt installed a ceiling fan to help keep the room cool. It's all coming together really well. We selected the baby furniture over the weekend which we'll order in the morning. Hopefully it will arrive before the baby.

Mom, Dad, and Steph visited over the weekend. It was great to see them. They brought down the car seat which is one more item off the baby to-do list.

Tomorrow we start a Childbirth Preparedness class which will last 6 weeks. We are looking forward to the class, but not the hours. It runs from 7-9:30pm which is late for a couple of early risers who work across the bay!

I can tell the baby's getting stronger because he moves all the time. He seems to especially like flailing about between 3 and 4 in the morning.

Lastly, keep your fingers crossed for good weather as today kicks off the start of hurricane season. We're hoping this year is as calm as last year in Pensacola.
Much love,
Matt and Emily
