Well we've now pretty much got everything in order for the moment at which our little bundle of joy decides it's his/her time to make an entrance (or, should I say exit). The nursery is ready, we've got a bag packed with the essentials, and I even put the carseat base in the car. Now with the official due date a week and a half away, what do we choose to do? Why get the carpets cleaned, of course! It was something we had wanted to do prior to the baby coming along, cause the day will be coming soon when the little tyke will be burying his/her face into the carpet, and I'd just rather have it be clean. To save a buck, we moved all the furniture ourselves (well, myself. And I got a bit of help from our friend Benjamin on a couple things). So this is now what our living room looks like.
And this, of course, is what our dining room looks like.
So, the carpet is now drying, and I plan to move the furniture back tomorrow. We also had them do the stairs, upstairs hallway, and the baby's room. Alas, the nursery no longer looks like Meagan's previously posted pictures, but it will again soon. Now the big hope is that the baby doesn't come tonight or tomorrow. Are we crazy? Probably. What do you think?

i know what you mean about having clean carpet! when I was pregnant with Ada and we were living at our old house we decided to just buy new carpet because the carpet was soooo old (and really gross we found out when we ripped it up). We lived in a very small, one bedroom house (with the bedroom being half the size of the house, literallly), and had to put EVERYTHING in our little little living room and even sleep there for a night! it was rough.
HA! i love the comment about the baby "exiting" instead of "entering" hehe...
at first I thought Meagan had moved the furniture and I was shocked that we hadn't gotten a call saying she'd gone into labor ;) Glad to hear that you're the one doing the heavy lifting bud! Love you both! Enjoy the last few days of just being a young married couple!
