Baby stuff & Nesting Urges!

Today wasn't too eventful, apparently Raine feels the same way, hes been lazy today.. maybe hes giving me a break since hes usually kicking me all day and night! I've been getting the urge to "nest" lately, but since we aren't settled and are moving into a new place shortly, I can't do much nesting. I will be happy when I can start to work on the nursery. Right now I almost feel panicked that I haven't started on his room, even though I know I have plenty of time (God willing). I've picked out the bedding and the furniture already. Here are photos of the bedding and furniture:






Here are a couple of other of the more important items from my registry as well, all by Eddie Bauer:





I ordered a baby carrier, called a "Peanut Shell" sling, I had been looking at quite a few different ones and thought this one looked like it would be comfy and secure for the baby:

So far we've been getting a lot of odds and ends. We thought about looking for some good deals on bigger items on craigslist and such, but we're going to wait till we are in the new place. Heres a few of the cute little things that we have for Raine:








My mom and I are doing scrapbooks for the baby. I have also been keeping a written journal of my pregnancy for him as well. AC Moore has some really cute scrapbooks, once my mom and I get some of the pages done I'll post photos!

Rounding out today's entry, here is the 21 week update for Raine's growth!

21 Week Fetus Development: Your beautiful little miracle-gro baby will be putting on a full ounce and a half this week (and weighing up to 16.5 ounces), but that’s just the beginning! Within the next five weeks, they’ll really be packin’ it on! For now, we’re pleased to report the addition of rapid eye movement (REM) a key component to any healthy baby’s sleep schedule. While in the dermatology department: their thin soft skin is very red, rather translucent, and a bit wrinkled. Not to worry, it’s not a premature aging disease. It's just their clever little body setting them up with extra space that will smooth out once your little one starts packing on the baby-fat. That won’t be for a few more weeks, though. So for the time being, your munchkin is still a little lean mean growing machine! The beginnings of what is commonly called “brown fat” is just starting to fill in to help your baby retain some body heat, which is crucial as they’re not yet capable of regulating their own body temperature.
