Ready or Not.....

....here she comes! We can't believe that we've got LESS THAN TWO WEEKS before we meet the Wee'est Weber. This pregnancy has most definitely flown by, and Mommy & Daddy are in full prep-mode washing sheets, buying diapers and hunting down car-seat bases. All in all, though, we've done a pretty good job prepping for baby #2.

One of the main benefits of having another girl is the recycling/hand-me-down aspect of everything. Mommy saved everything (and I do mean EVER-Y-THING) from Norah's days as an infant and baby. From floral boppy covers to hand made receiving blankets to cute, ballerina-themed onesies, the Newest Weber has got it all. Plus, Norah will learn the ever-so-important trait of sharing, and Mommy and Daddy get to save a TON of money. Besides, we really don't think Little One will give two hoots where she gets all of her goodies.

Of course, Baby Weber does need and deserve SOME uniqueness, so we took great care to give her nursery, and new clothing, a new theme. As you know, we gave Norah's nursery etc.. a lamb theme; a beautiful fit for a beautiful girl. This next beautiful girl will have her own wonderful theme of...flowers and butterflies! And, changing the theme of the nursery from lambs to butterflies led us to move Norah into a brand new room with Big-Girl furniture.

As we have not yet sold the current Weber Inn to new owners (more on that in later posts), we were faced with transforming our guest room into a room fit for a toddler. We don't really anticipate being here too long after the new baby arrives, so we didn't spend too much time on a theme for Norah's new room, but we did go all out when picking her Big-Girl bedroom suite. It will,after all, hopefully last Ms. Big Sister well into her teens (And, perhaps, be passed down to a daughter of her own one day?)

(A quick side note on Norah's first experiences out of the crib and into a bed: She did really well. She did fall out of bed the first night, but has not done so since. We still routinely check on her only to find that she's turned around in her sleep, but she has really taken to the bed)

All in all, Mommy and Daddy are very happy with the girl's new rooms. We hope that they will one day look back on these pictures and feel the same way.
