Getting Ready for Baby

This baby is coming any day now : )  It is so exciting for me, I love the anticipation of a new sweetheart joining our family.  I decided a while ago that boys could be fun to create for too, and decided to make him these little things.  Here's what I have been working on the past few weeks.


 His car seat canopy, with an elastic top (to keep the cold wind out), and a peek-a-boo- flap to check on him easily. 


After making a diaper holder and wipes case for my sister, I had to make one for my little one.  I also did a changing pad (still need to do the binding though) complete with a mini pillow (the blue minky thing) for his comfort.

 I decided against making a diaper bag and found this one I liked.  I was so excited to find it more than half off it's regular price on Amazon.  Not bad for $22 : )

And here was another task brought about by the effects of nesting.  I finally cleaned out and organized Ka'imi's closet.  We found this perfect dresser on KSL to keep baby's clothes in.  Now I can actually find things : )

And here is my belly at 37 weeks - getting there : )

I have only a couple things left to do, but it wouldn't be the end of the world if I didn't get to it.  With having gotten through Kyle's defense and officially full-term, this darling can make his appearance whenever he wants.  I can't wait to meet him and cuddle him and serve him.
