Baby Room

Hey Guys, So we finally started the baby room! It actually took quite some work. We had already planned on painting the room a different color but when we inspected the walls, we noticed that there was wall paper on two of the walls. We thought about just painting over it but noticed some air bubbles and decided to take it all down. I spent one Saturday peeling it off and wiping off the adhesive and Chris spent one of his days off texturizing the walls. Now that it was done, it was finally time to start painting! This past weekend Chris and I primed and painted the room and set up the cribs. We still have more to do but now it's starting to get real.

The wallpaper is finally gone!

Assembling the cribs, isn't Chris so cute!?

Sorry this picture doesn't do justice, the wall color looks better in person. (In case you were
wondering why there are two cribs.... we put down that we would take up to 2 kids, so we had
to buy two beds to have ready) 

Last week we were told that a social worker was assigned to us and she called me to schedule another home inspection! She will be over on Monday and then next Thursday we will be going to our final training. From here, I believe it's only interviews and finishing getting the house ready. Chris and I have been trying really hard to stay on top of things. We ordered some stuff from amazon to make our house child proof and worked on that this last week.

I am filled with so much joy! I know the room isn't completely done but it just makes my heart so happy to go in that room and see those two cribs. Our friends and family have just been so supportive and I can't stop thinking about how lucky Chris and I are. Both of our families are just so great! Everyone is just so willing to help and we have already received gifts for the babies. Sorry I keep referring to babies, I'm just really hoping for babies (twins if possible). But our kids are already so lucky so be surrounded by so many loving people. I love them already and can't wait to meet them! Dear little ones, you are loved more than you will ever know.
