Bored...

Hello all. Yes, it is me, pregnant Christi. You won't hear any complaining from me today though. I told Derek I won't be grumpy until July 1st (aka 6 days past the due date). PS- I'm not interested in being induced so please don't comment on how I should be. (Was that grumpy? Probably, but I've already heard that one hundred times. ) Anyway, I've been keeping myself busy with a whole lot of non-essential projects.

First I've got my traditional due-date picture below for all to enjoy:

I got this idea from Pottery Barn. Once baby comes I'll get some pics pinned up on these boards for each of the girls. I had a lot of fun making these and I really like them.
I made myself a nursing cover complete with a pocket that you can see if you look closely. I really love this fabric. All the fabric from these project are from the Quilt Shoppe, which is now my favorite store.


Here is the bird blanket I made for new baby that I wrote about a long time ago. I finished it a while ago, and Trudy reminded me to put a pic of it on here. I realized while taking it that it's hard to take a picture of a blanket.

So instead of being in labor, I've been busy with these things. If you want to hang out with me I will probably be at Jamba Juice. I've got this deal with Derek that once my due date hits I get to go to Jamba as often as I want. So we've pretty much kept them in business since Thursday. It's delicious.

Jamba's are the greatest!!! Hang in there girl. :) I'm glad you're sticking to your guns. I got a lot of crap for not getting epidurals, but really, people should try to mind their own business sometimes. ;) I'm so excited to see your new little one and I hope everything goes well. Let me know if there's anything I can do. Shurell and I could bring you a grilie movie to watch. :)

I love the way you tell us all to mind our own business! It's so true. She'll get here when she wants to!

You are so adorable pregnant. :) And yes, I'm still jealous, and yes, I'm going to come over and hold Gwen to get my baby fix.

You are so crafty. I had no idea! Everything is darling!

Keep us posted-you are a trooper. I don't know what I'd do if I went over my due date. Oh, yes I do. I would be grumpy and complain...a lot! :)

Just look at how productive you have been! Not many past due mommies can say that they have that much ambition!! I guess boredom does set in, but still, way to go Christi!!!

Hey this post is one of my favorites of yours! Look at how cute everything turned out! I am so proud of you! I see how well you are doing being overdue and I really look up to you! I will remember that with my next babies since they will all be overdue just like my first two. And No I don't think that is grumpy at all!! You are doing what you feel is best for you and Gwen (even though its hard) and it sounds like she is going to be like her mom...overdue and layed back. It sounds like she starts to come and then gets distracted. Who does that sound like?

Katie said...

Oh NO, being overdue is the worst! Are you having this baby natural? Good luck I hope she comes soon, you look beautiful!

Krystal said...
