Nesting

I've nearly run out of things to do in preparation for the arrival of our kiddo.  Everything's clean.  Everything's packed.  Our car has functioning seat belts.  Most of my MFW jobs are as complete as they have a hope of being.  There's food in the freezer for lazy days to come.

Thanks to a well-placed phone call this morning, though, I have one project left.  Rolla-Mom and I took a break from work this morning to go to a yard sale where three ladies were unloading all of their baby stuff.  Unfortunately, their most recent babies were all girls.  If I knew I was having a girl, it would have been a problem.  All the clothes were SO cute and in SUCH good shape.  I would have had a hard time restraining myself.  As it was, I picked out all of the plain and yellow things and grabbed one or two especially cute girly things just in case.  I also got a Rubbermaid storage thing with three drawers, so now I actually have a place to put all the cute baby accessories we've been accumulating.  So now I can find logical, convenient places for things.

And also, I need to quilt my baby quilt, and I can't find a leather thimble anywhere in Rolla.  I have one last place to look, or I'll be going back to WalMart to get the next best thing.
