We've been waiting for you...even if the nursery isn't quite finished.

I've been meaning to do this for a while. Ryan introduced me to this great website that makes slide shows out of your pics. These are some pics from the first month of Tobi's life. The song is one I heard a while ago. (If you want to watch the slide show I would recommend pausing the song player...it's painful to listen to both). I had to laugh listening to the lyrics because she specifically mentions several times something about taking home the baby and showing her her finished room. It's a good thing that Tobi won't know that we still don't have her room done. It's actually worked out quite well to keep her in our room. She sleeps so well and it means less travel for me in the mornings...so we really haven't felt the pressure to finish the nursery yet. The walls are painted, the furniture is assembled and she evens naps in her crib...but we still have several things to do before we can really say it is finished. Today would have been the day, but instead it was consumed with snow removal. Oh well, I don't think she feels any less loved or safe even though she is still without a finished room. We were waiting for her and we are so very glad she is here.

Shauna-

That came out SO great! It's awesome! I love it!!!! :) Neither one of my kids had a nursery, so don't sweat it! If she's sleeping then you've won the lottery as far as I'm concerned!!!! :)
