We are thirty-eight weeks along now! LB is similar in size to a pumpkin this week. Alex and I are closer to being ready for the little baby, although I don't think we could ever be completely prepared :) The nursery is also almost finished, only missing the curtain finial pieces and maybe a picture frame or two. Our house has been taken over by baby things, but we have tried very hard to keep it organized. My nesting instinct has taken over full force... not really sure it was necessary to reorganize the kitchen pantry at three AM though! Here are the pictures of our Harper preparation:
Thirty-eight weeks!
Our pretty guest bathroom is now stocked full of baby goodies. We used the drawers for washcloths and bath towels.
Washcloths!
Harper's cute animal bath wraps and extra washcloths.
Hooded bath towels
Bathroom essentials: cleaning supplies on the top and baby supplies on the bottom.
Our baby medicine box is full of first aid supplies and infant medicines.
Basket of bath toys!
The humidifier, a bin full of baby lotions and shampoos, and a little bathtub for the little baby.
Harper's room! I am so excited we finally got the curtains up. We are just waiting for the end pieces for the curtain rods to arrive in the mail. We may eventually add more frames on this side of the room, but we are happy with it for now.
My favorite part of the room is the wall above the crib! The room seems a little dark because we have not yet put in a ceiling light.
Tessa made Harper the beautiful elephant painting to match her elephant themed room. We put the diaper caddy on the closet door handle near the changing table.
Harper's closet full of diapers, cutie baby clothes and shoes. I think she has more clothes than I do thanks to all our shower gifts and hand me downs from cousin Catherine! We used the bookshelf to store toys and baby books.
I used a jewelry organizer to store all of Harper's adorable hats and mittens.
We used white fabric containers from Ikea to organize the dresser. This drawer is full of baby socks and leg warmers! You can never have enough baby socks :)
This drawer holds pacifiers, teethers, Harper's cute wubbanubs, hair supplies, sunglasses, and extra bags for the diaper genie.
We are keeping Harper's burp cloths and plain washcloths in this drawer. We plan to use the washcloths during diaper changes to minimize the amount of times the changing pad needs to be changed.

This drawer is full of onesies and baby pants organized by size. The extra mattress pad is in this drawer as well.
This drawer is for all the little white Carter's bodysuits: long-sleeve, short-sleeve, tank top and side snap. We also keep Harper's sleep sacs, swaddle sacs, and pajamas in this drawer.
I love baby blankets!! We have Harper's receiving blankets and stroller blankets in here, as well as extra sheets for her pack and play.
This drawer is for swaddle blankets, extra changing pad covers and crib sheets.
Our bassinet!
We have stored the pack and play and baby bouncer in the downstairs closet for use on the first floor. Luckily the closet is deep!
Harper has her own shelf in the kitchen for her bottles and bottle warmer. We have plates, bowls and a Beaba maker ready for when she starts to eat solid foods.
She also has her own kitchen drawer for pretty burp cloths and bibs :)
