Lots of Pics- Abigails Room Getting ready

It has been sooooo busy here... Baby Abigail is JUST ABOUT HERE!!!!! We have been painting and tearing out walls... and getting prepared for her arrival.

I want to start off with a finish that I have just Mailed out to The Stitch Store in Buford GA. This was SUCH a Cool stitch piece... I had a blast stitching it and it was easy to stitch. The fabric she sent had a hue of pink in it... and was stitch over 2 with 2 threads of Old Red Paint Floss.
Then we go to ABIGAIL's FIRST Cross Stitch piece... This was picked by Megz on the Girls Trip to Columbus. Debbie Stitched it , Megz picked the frame... I painted the frame... and then laced and framed the piece... WELCOME ABIGAIL! Even with Cross Stitch. I WONDER.... Could that toy group "Lamaze" have a Q-Snap and safe needle for infants... giggle!!!

AND DRUM ROLL PLEASE...

OK more drums... this is the big work!!!

ABIGAIL'S ROOM

(so far)

Her changing station... with Swing and Bouncer. We have been able to suite the bedroom with swing ... playpen and bouncer and then also the living room with all 3 so she has her basic care and entertainment needs in both areas...Her Bed... and playpen... and Megz Glider... Her Bed is one that has the conversion kit for a toddler bed.. then a youth bed... then a queen size bed adventually. It is a very nice bed.. and OH MY GOODNESS it is so heavy!!!!! But we wanted her to have a GOOD bed to rest safe and sound. Our precious lil Abz.

Jungle Jill is the theme that Megz picked out for Abigail... and you can sorta see here too the monitor that she was able to buy... It is a Motion monitor ... if there is any stop in movement while the baby is sleeping the alarm goes off to check on her... WOW that is so cool!

Look at the Mobile... it is a Giraffe Head that holds it... that is so adorable!!!

Look at her closet ALREADY... Clothes Galore!!!!!! and Toys Galore!!!!! Wow!

Thanks goes out to all that have given up precious time to help us get everything ready for our lil baby girl!

Meghan and Abigail had several friends that stopped by to help Meghan get the room painted and cleaned and ready for her baby furnature!!! Her is a few of them... These girls came over the evening after we painted and helped with mopping and cleaning everything up real nice and getting it all ready to move things into the room!

OK... so here we go... THIS IS THE BIG PAINT DAY!!!!

This is Stephy... she is Justin's mom and has been appointed by Meghan to be Abigail's other grandma. She has already spoiled Abigail so much... and think of so many nice things that have helped support Meghan through everything that she has gone through. Stephy We all love you dearly and THANK YOU so much for EVERYTHING!!!!!

While Stephy and I are painting away... we sent Justin out to start on the doorway trim... and we hear laughing and squealing... and giggles galore... OK so the laughing was Megz... the squealing and crying like a girl... was Justin. They had this HUGE paint fight... Stephy and I was cheering fromt he upstairs window.... It was so much fun to watch... they giggled and laughed... and she swatted him with paint... there was paint all over the place.

Here is the end result!

We vacationed over Memorial Day week... We went to London KY to stay at Levi Jackson State Park. One of our favorite state parks. We went to Gatlinburg for a day... shopped and ate too much... and then back to the campsite. We went to Cumberlin Falls for a day ... the water was seriously HIGH!!!! and then back and one day we went to the flea market there in London... we found ALL KINDS of goodies for Abigail... Here is some of Megz favorites!!!

Here is Jake and Meghan at Cumberlin Falls... You can sorta see that the water behind them is running fast, high, and muddy.

Here is Me and Meghan at the falls... and WOW look at that Water GO!!!!! It almost did not have any place to "fall" the two sections that are usually greatly divided were almost completely together. It was very strange to see.

MOTHER'S DAY 2011

Meghan's First Mother's day!

For this mothers day... Her dad and I gave Meghan the designer fabric to cover her glider to match her baby room. Then her Mamaw worked her sewing magic and covered the seat part of the rocker. This turned out just AMAZING!!!!!!

Happy Mothers day Sweet Baby Girl... and to many many more mothers day's to come!!!

See ... I think she liked it!!!!

At the End of April... My Best Friend(sister) Debby, Meghan and I took off for a weekend Road Trip!!!! We headed for Columbus... and had a blast!!!! Here we went out for Debs Birthday... RED LOBSTER!!! YUMMY!!!!!

Megz and Laughing at everything and then at nothing...
