Forced Nesting

I really don't feel like I've entered into the "nesting stage" of pregnancy yet, but with my dad in town for a week it was time to kick it into action! We were able to take a nice midweek trip to IKEA and basically had the store to ourselves. We got baby B his crib and a lot of cute and fun accessories. My glider also came in the mail, and I was very thankful my dad was in town to put that together. Shawn and my dad tackled the crib on Saturday and did a great job putting it together. Only 7 more weeks til the arrival of the little guy. We are so excited, and now that we have a crib and a car seat we can get him home from the hospital and he has a place to sleep!


In typical NYC style Baby B has a corner not a nursery, so there is still a lot of works that needs to be done.

Good Bye 2009

I think it's pretty much a fact that as the years go by they pick up in speed. I remember when I was little and my dad used to say how fast the year went, and I never really understood that. Well now I totally understand! This year, by far, was the fastest of my life. I would have to chalk part of that up to the crazy pace on New York City. This has also been a year of major changes. A new apartment and a baby on the way in two months. I know that 2010 holds a lot more major and exciting changes for Shawn and me.

Here's to a great 2009 and an even better 2010!


Christmas Day at the Knicks Game then a big Christmas dinner at our apartment!
New Year's Eve at my sister's place. My mom, cousin Aaron and his fiance Amy all celebrated with us. Baby B even got a special pomegranate soda water drink!
