Officially NESTING!

So i think i am officially "nesting." This mama is counting down her weeks till baby arrives and has a long list of things I want to do before he/she comes!! AND, if he/she is early at all, it's Christmas! So, we were wanting to make a quick trip to Dallas to see friends, which we did last week - very fun! I was very OCD and for no reason (this wasn't on my list!) cleaned out my makeup drawer and the fridge in one day...they were both spotless and it made me feel so good = NESTING!!! We are prepping the nursery and did some major work in the garage and pulled out baby storage containers with baby clothes and toys...ahhh! got me so excited! We've cleaned the infant car seat and high chair (thanks mom!) and have done a load of newborn onesies, blankets etc...AND, we've gotten our house ready for Christmas! I know I know, many of you are most likely rolling your eyes, but honestly, it's been so fun! We love Christmas and can enjoy it longer. :) Whether it's practical or not, it's made me feel better to have things sorta ready....just in case. :) we still have lots to do, but it will get done. :) And who am i kidding? this baby is not coming early! Just like Jackson, it'll prolly be cookin' right up until my due date after New Year's. Of course!!! :)

Here is Jackson before school one day, couldn't help it, thought he looked like such a big brother!

He found the infant tub and likes it as a recliner in front of the television. :)

As we were going through our christmas decor, he got comfy under the christmas tree skirt. hee hee...
And here he is one morning he got up too early, and Josh and I were sitting around, drinking coffee wakind up, and reading and journaling...so he had to get out his Bible too...here he is deep in thought. Maybe praying too huh?? who knows! :)

Overall, we're getting super excited for Baby Crosby's upcoming arrival! And getting many things crossed off our LONG list. :)
The Crosby's come in for thankgiving next week. Cannot believe Thanksgiving is already here - ahhh! More soon...
