and counting! God bless and Happy Monday!Additional comments: As of this morning Baby J's prep is complete. I washed and folded all of his little clothes yesterday and put them in drawers last night! How great is it that we already have everything we need?! Love it! I guess that's where 3 of one gender really pays off! I also washed the carseat cover and attached the head stablizer to the straps... and washed the Boppy pillow and blue soft cover! This kid is set!
One last remaining item I plan to fetch tomorrow is a SwaddleMe blanket. Many moms have lauded this miracle blanket as it wraps the baby so tightly (better than the receiving blankets from the hospital) and mimics the closeness of the womb. They also say it encourages more hours of sleep for the infant (and the mom!). Sign me up!! I'll buy 10 of these if they work... :) We'll have to let you know.
That's the latest from our little corner of the world on Monday afternoon! Hugs!

You are so beautiful!:) love the red top.
OH M
Little J is looking like he's almost ready to make an appearance. Can't wait...but I hope HE will until August!!
This is such an exciting time for the G's..new baby....new house....new job...the Virginia Bar Exam, etc. We admire how you are handling all this with such grace and faith!
We will have so much to celebrate.. AFTER the bar! :)
I loved that wrap as well. My oldest daughter stayed in the wrap for the first 6 months of her life....slept thru the entire night! She finally outgrew them but we have all the sizes!! My husband was worried we were always going to have to velcro her in to go to sleep. My baby emma never liked being swaddled and could undo the velcro....however, I just bought one of the Miracle Blankets and it is awesome becuase there is no velcro and it swaddles really tightly!! good luck!@
Wishing you lots of peaceful sleeping. I tried the wrap as I was terrible at swaddling but my sweet boy did not enjoy being swaddled or sleeping apparently...just crying:)
Beautiful as always!
(You look awesome! I hope you are feeling as good as you look.)
Lookin good hot mama! We also love Aiden + Anais muslin swaddling cloths. Big enough to really do the job right but v. breatheable so no risk of overheating, esp good for a summer arrival! Friend from LA sent them to us when Augustine was born and we loved them so much I bought a whole bunch more online. I'll send you a set. But here's the site: http://www.adenandanais.com/
you just get cuter and cuter!!
I have to agree on the SwaddleMe blanket...it's much easier to use in the middle of the night than a receiving blanket!
You look so great! I'm excited for you during this time...was there myself not to long ago and loved it! Great to be in touch! Thoughts and prayers are with you as you await his arrival!
You look great and Little J looks like he's getting ready. Hopefully he comes after his Daddy finishes the Bar. I hope you have as good of luck as we have had with your Swaddle Me wrap. It is great- thanks to Carolina Girl for suggesting it! It was great to talk to you the other day. I can't wait to get the call that your new little buddy has arrived! Hugs to all of you from the Bradleys.
You are looking so great and you're almost there! So excited for you!!!
So close B! You also need to go out and buy 6 yards of stretchy fabric to make a moby wrap!Baby J will love it and so will your back!
Keri, I am definitely going to try out the Moby, especially after seeing your girls love it so from pics!! Very cool--is there a trick to wrapping it?
You look great!!! Glad to hear baby is facing south!! Praying he chooses a good time to say hello!
