20 Weeks and Nursery Update

I'm falling behind on these weekly postings, probably because I realize I'm going to be pregnant forever, so I should pace myself.

But seriously, Brittany and my friend Christina are having babies this week. They will have their babies and all of their maternity leave, come back after 8-12 weeks, and I will still have 6-10 more weeks. ugh forever. :)

I guess its worth it for a healthy baby!

Anyways we had our 20 week check up last week. This is the appointment where they have the really long ultrasound and check that the baby has all his organs, arms and legs. Baby Ruddick passed with flying colors. He actually was moving around so much that the ultrasound lady was getting frustrated. Then she said he is 15 oz. Which a typical baby at that week is about 10-11 oz. So we have a big ol baby. The doctor said it wasn't a big deal and they may move up my due date at some point in the future if he keeps growing like this. Barry was almost 10 lbs, so I guess big babies are a Ruddick family thing. Yey for me :)

Here is a 20 week picture. I think baby was sitting up in this one, cause my belly doesn't seem as big as the week before.



Barry and I, mostly Barry have been working on the babies room. Here is the progress so far. I will try and find some before pics, but I'm pretty sure the room was green (or yellow), can't remember. Sorry for the horrible lighting. I'm going to buy a camera at some point before December.



You'll notice I have two different curtains up, I can't decide if I like the white (picture below) or yellow (picture above) better. I'm leaning towards white.


One wall is grey the other 3 are baby blue. Barry did a great job painting.



The rug is from Urban Outfitters and I love it. Barry hates it because its not cushy or soft, but I like it because it looks pretty. We might have to get another when baby is toddling.

Shelf is from Ikea. If you know anything about Ikea you have to self assemble everything. This was going to take me a long time, thankfully Barry was sure I would screw it up, so he finished for me!

I did a couple craft projects last week, that I will share at some point.
