My due date is exactly 2 months away. I know that sounds kind of far away still, but this pregnancy has flown by and I think it will continue to do so up until 36 weeks. And then, I’ll keep waiting and expecting labor to arrive, but that’ll just make the time slow. It also doesn’t seem like enough time to get my “to-do” list done. Thankfully we are generally prepared since we have so much left over from Savannah, and we definitely have everything we need if he arrived even if my to-list wasn’t completed. But, I still want his room to look nice and finished, to have my stock of cloth diapers ready and a diaper pail to put them in, to shampoo these nasty carpets, and to pack our bags and have them ready to go just in case. The urge to prepare has started to take over…

However, I can’t do a lot of that preparing myself…or at least without going on a shopping spree (which is a no-no to Daddy O!) so I have to find cheap ways to entertain myself. Especially now that I have these lists going on in my head 24/7 and it’s hard to sleep at night. So, I do some crafting! Not only is it something I love, but it helps satisfy that urge to do something for this baby.

Most recently, I made a custom onsie. Who needs to pay $20 for one now? Ha! I found some transfer paper at the craft store, Savannah’s old onsie, created a design in my trusty photoshop, ironed it on, and boom:

Custom, cheap, and easy. This was my first so it isn’t perfect but it’s still wearable and cute. I should buy a pack of onsies and make a whole collection, like with this cool font. And I think a burp cloth or two is next in line.

Also, I seriously cannot wait to show you my other latest project for the nursery. I just need Mark to hang it (and…um…I need to decide the most perfect place) so that I can take pictures in all it’s fun-colored glory!
