Fisher's Room

Fisher's room is finally complete. The curtains are up, the rocking chair has been recovered and painted...all this room needs is a baby!

In other news, we have been quite busy preparing for Fisher's arrival. We went on the hospital tour, took a baby essentials class, picked a pediatrician and had a little practice playing with Preston and Miranda's adorable twins!

Fisher already has friends lined up for his arrival...

How sweet is that face?!

Nursery Sneak Peek!

I have had several requests to see the nursery, but I have been holding off becuase it is not complete. But, I guess I can show you what we have done so far...here you go! The walls are a tan color and the ceiling a light bluish green.

We found this chandelier from an antique store that we love and had it rewired. It is from the 20's! Not very manly, I know. But, what is more fabulous than a chandelier? I wish I had one in every room of our house!

This is another piece we bought from the antique store. Mimi replaced the fabric so that it matched the bedskirt and blanket. Thanks Mimi!

BEFORE

AFTER

As you can see, we still need drapes (Mimi's next project), art and I have a rocking chair that needs to be reupholstered...stay tuned!

Catching Up!

I know, I have been slacking in the blog department. Believe me, it is not because I don't have anything to write about...we have been BUSY!

First, I was thrown another fabulous shower by Blakely, Meghan and Jenna. They did such a wonderful job and Fisher got THE cutest stuff!

The girls had all kinds of games planned. Here is Cecie and Laura trying to guess baby food flavors...yuck!

Now for the yummy food....

Thank you girls, Fisher and I love you all!

Next, it was Christmas (four Christmases to be exact). Fisher racked up on the baby gear! Of course, I have no pictures from the holidays, except this one of Chris and Michael sporting their new Georgia shirts.

And last, but not least...my birthday dinner! A big group of us went to dinner at Eclipse Di Luna. It was all you can eat...I was in fatty heaven!

Hi, I'm Lindsey and I am a whale!

Welcome to the 3rd trimester! We are ONLY 2/3 of the way there and I feel and look like I might explode. Hurry up Fisher, mommy would like to see her feet again!

This weekend Chris and I attended our birthing class, 5 hours of what to expect followed by a video of an acutal birth. Poor Chris looked like he was the one giving birth by the end of it and I must say, I could have done without the video as well. I was suprised to see the mother in the video extremely calm, waving to the camera and even smiling between contractions. I was expecting a more dramatic show...but this mom did not deliver. I can almost guarantee this will not be my temperment when Fisher arrives. Now that I fully understand what goes down, the only person I will be waving to is the nurse to up my dosage on the meds!

What Happens At Grandma's Stays At Grandma's

Last weekend Chris and I went to stay at Grandma Cecie and Grandpa Mark's house to have dinner and watch the Georgia game. We knew that Cecie had been working hard on the nursery, but we had no idea how READY she was. We are 6 1/2 months along and Grandma Cecie and Grandpa Mark are ready to go! Fisher's room is jam packed with all of the toys, swings and baby gear a little boy could ask for.

Look at Fisher's precious bed, patiently awaiting his arrival.

And that's not all...this nursery is full. The only thing missing is the baby!

Thanks Cecie and Mark for a great weekend!

Showered With Love!

Last weekend, all of the Alabama girls threw me the most fabulous baby luncheon/weekend in Nashville. They put so much thought into everything! When I arrived I had this basket of goodies waiting on me. It was full of fun things like: belly butter, prenatal vitamins, a pregnancy magazine, the book "Belly Laughs," some snacks and more.  

That night, all of the girls brought in fun appetizers...I get hungry just thinking about it!

The next morning we woke up bright and early for the baby brunch at Puffy Muffin. The girls rented a private room and decorated it to perfection!

The table setting had hydrangeas and little bird accents, to match the theme in Fisher's room.

They hung little signs all over the room that said "Fisher" and "It's a Boy!"


Here is a picture of the delicious cake! I mean, how cute are those little booties?!

They showered me in the cutest gifts EVER and it is official...Fisher is already spoiled rotten...love it!

Thank you girls, for such a special weekend!!

This and That

We have been buuusy! Last week, Katie and Weston came to visit us for a day of shopping at the mart. Chris and I were thrilled to have a little boy around the house; we can only hope Fisher is as well behaved as Weston! We followed her around the whole time  and watched her every move to learn all we could. Babies are a lot of work! Katie bought Weston this hat..too cute for words!

For Halloween, Chris and I went up to Big Canoe and stayed at my parents place. It is the prettiest time of the year because of all of the leaves. Here is a view from the top!

While we were there we went to see the Atlanta Magazine Dream Home. It was amazing! The master suite was the size of our entire house!
