countdown to baby

Well it is indeed been quite a while since I have posted anything here. The reason is simple, I'm an expecting father and have been spending most of my free time with completing the nursery and other little home improvement jobs to prepare of the coming baby. Right now I have a little time to breath and think, "Where did the summer go?"

The nursery is for the most part completed. The room has had a complete makeover. New carpet, new paint, new molding, new baseboard, the entry door to the room rehung to swing into the room instead of out, there is a door the leads into a closet with steps leading up to the attic that I've sanded and repainted and now needs to be rehung, the crib is completely assembled and ready for baby to sleep in, the new dresser is assembled and filled with baby clothes, the old armoire closet has been completely sanded and repainted white and is reassembled and filled with baby clothes and other things...WHEW! I'm whipped! I do have to say this room is the best looking room in the house.

The due date for baby has been set at Sept. 8th. Realistically the baby could be born any day now. According to my wife, when you hit 37 weeks you have come full term. Well we are certainly there now. All I can do now is wait.

The anticipation is going to drive me nuts LOL!
