29 weeks!

Well, since this week is the only time this month that chris is home for more than 3 days at a time so we had a few projects to try and cover. The main one was PAINT! Chris and I spend 2 days, 3 trips to Home depot and 5 paint samples trying to find the right shade of pink for the baby room. I didn't want to go too bright. I think we have finally made a decision and tomorrow chris will begin painting her room. Here is a pic of our paint tries:
The one we chose is the bottom right color. The far left was too bright. Middle one had a purple tint to it. Top right was also a little too bright. Middle right was almost white, didn't have much pink in it at all. The winner was bottom right and I can't wait to see how it turns out!

Our plan is to paint above the chair rail and then either leave the bottom the color it is now or paint an ebony/beige color. I will post more pics when we get it all done!

Our 2nd task for this week was to try and decide what to name her..... This is much easier said than done. Its a big decision and not one either of us want to rush. We have a few ideas but nothing concrete! For now we just call her Baby Jo (Jo will be her middle name, after Nanny, my grandma on my mom's side). I would have liked to have this decided before my Oklahoma shower, this saturday, but thats not looking very likely! I will definitely update if we do decide!

Today marks the beginning of week 29! that makes me 7 months 1 week. Hard to believe she could be here in 11 weeks (give or take a few). Here is my week 29 belly pic:

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the shower this weekend! Plus I get to go wedding dress shopping with my mom and sister! Hard to believe she will be getting married next year! June 12, 2010!!!!! What a busy year!
