This winter my great aunt Doe has become what's known as a Snow Bird, spending time in our tropical state while it's cold and gray at home in Georgia. This is great news for me, because she can visit more often! Last week she stopped by for a couple of days to color with me and eat dinner with my parents.
She was amazed at how grown up I have become since her last visit. We introduced her to my new favorite music (Mama Mia is out, Glee is in). She brought me a beautiful doll that is just like a real baby! I was relieved when she told me the doll is a girl (all this talk about baby boys is making me tired).
She also went shopping with Mom to advise on my big girl bedding. Mom says Doe is a decorating expert, so her opinion has been valuable. My new bed arrived, and my big girl room preparations are really taking shape. Dad only asks that we avoid hot pink and anything neon, but otherwise has given me permission to make it totally princess-y.
Luckily, I am more than happy to offer my strong opinion about everything, even down to the curtain rod finials and paint color!
Mom says planning for my brother's nursery has been a breeze with Dad's help, because he has a keen interest in all things boy. They are getting more and more excited, now that the baby is past the halfway mark (the 20 week ultrasound showed that he was developing right on track!). Stay tuned for the big reveal in a couple of months, once we get everything finished. Mom hopes to have our rooms ready before my brother arrives!
