Bunk Beds

We have moved the girls into the same room.
Ryan took Haylee's old bed, bought another bed of the same model
and then made them into bunk beds. He added the railings,
and ladder.
He will also be making some type of door that guards the ladder
to ensure that Soph can't climb up, but Haylee can get down.
We have found Soph up there a couple of times now, and so far she hasn't
attempted to get down by herself, but I am fearful it will only be a
matter of time.

Micah's room is ready with clothes and decor.
I have washed and assembled all the baby stuff like car seats, swing, etc.
I have all the bottles, and the pump ready.
We may have found our new car, which I'm really excited about. I'll post more about that
when it's a sure thing!
Ryan still has to put together the new bassinet that my mom got us.
It's a bed-side sleeper. I'm excited to see how it helps with all those late night
feedings.
I am currently 37 weeks, 1cm dialated, 50% effaced. I have been having consistent braxton hicks, to the point that they have become regular and painful. However when they put me on the monitor they were not active labor contractions. Because the consistency and the pain doc gave me a medication, "Procardia," that stops my contractions/Braxton Hicks. After taking it for two days I really didn't like the way it made me feel: lightheaded, headache, etc. And though it did stop the uncomfortable/painful feeling I got when having the contractions, I was still having them frequently. So it's a toss up between which symptoms are more annoying.
It's just a number of days now before we meet our little guy!

Isn't Ryan handy?!? The beds look amazing, and so cute!

It sounds like your little guy might be making an appearance soon- I'm sure you're ready :) I will be praying for a smooth delivery and healthy mama and baby!
