Grayson's Nursery + 38 Weeks

First, Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there and to my own special mama! She has definitely been a ROCK in my life and shaped me to be the woman I am today. I love you MOM (which I am pretty sure she does not read these - but hey she knows I love her!). 

Well, I am now 38 weeks and 1 day...I am really hoping he comes early, but if not then we will just induce late. Right now, she is telling me the earliest I can induce is 10 days POST due date (THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN)! I am not opposed to inducing late, I am just opposed to inducing this late for a few reasons: 1. Matt has finals from June 4th - June 9th (he can re-schedule them, but he would literally be able to only re-schedule the one the day of or after his birth - OR he could be taking a final and then get a call from me...ALL not great options...) 2. We have to go back to Texas for Matt to start his internship in the middle of June - the older he can be the better 3. I don't want to be pregnant that long and to be quite honest, I do not feel like it is that safe nor do I want this child to get any bigger than he already is going to be. 

However, with these things said I know that God has already picked out a BIRTHday for him, so I just pray that I have smooth delivery and a healthy baby boy. I just have to trust that everything will work out like it is supposed to and not worry. I have pretty much lived by Phillipians 4:6-7 my entire pregnancy. It is no surprise to those of you who know me that I am a VERY anxious person, but I have to just keep saying this verse over and over and it helps to get me to the next thought/day;)

Now, on to the FUN stuff. We have finally finished Grayson's room. There is still room to add things, because I want to make it personal to him, but the foundation of the room is finished. Plus, he really will not be in this room for another 4 months, since we will be in Houston from June to Sept. for Matt's internship. 

We wanted to keep everything soft and neutral for his room. 

A wreath from one of the showers is right at the doorway - I just love this wreath with sweet messages!


We got a painting from Grandma Silly (Matt's mom) 


The center of the room - the glider/recliner from Little Castle on the left and a chair and half sleeper sofa on the right from Pottery Barn, so that when we have guests come they will have somewhere to stay.


His crib with some antique frames hanging above - right now, there is a maternity picture and a scripture, but the other ones are empty for pictures after he is here


Jeremiah 29:11


Another angle - the TV is hidden behind the crib


A little cross on the night stand. The night stand was a fun and good find from HomeGoods


 Bookshelf - We have one more, but I am not sure we are going to put it up yet


I love this little nightlight!


This will be a pretty nice view reading/rocking him in his chair

For now, that is all we are going to do in his room. Hopefully, the next post will be ALL about Grayson! Any and all prayers are welcome for a safe delivery and healthy baby boy!
