I am going to make her another one with the pink yarn that I had delivered from AC Moore (thank goodness for online shopping). I am excited to use something other than a solid color yarn for a project! This new yarn is various shades of pink, purple, and white (variegated). Here is another project I have been working on her for about 5 months...it is taking a lot longer than I anticipated! It is hard to work on this lying down :) The first picture is the completed cross-stitch pattern (obviously ours will have a different name, date, and weight). The second picture is how much I have completed. I am getting there :) 
This next weekend, Alexis' room is getting painted and I am super excited! We have the paint and supplies...now it just needs to go on to the walls! It will be so nice to get that room put together. We do still need to buy a dresser and a mattress...especially since she now has a ton of clothes that people have given her. I have found the mattress I want, now I just need to send John out to buy it. Maybe in a couple of weeks I will send him out there to do that :) I also need to wash the clothes that we bought for her still.
My good friend from high school, Tammy, was in town late last week and brought her tons of clothes that her daughters used. She also went to Babies R Us and bought Alexis a TON of stuff!! I can't believe all the stuff she bought her. She now has rattles, a sippy cup with her name on it, some books, teethers, waterproof pads for her crib, wall appliques for her wall, and some other stuff! Tammy spoiled her!
I am sure Alexis is bound to get spoiled again here in 2 weeks. My shower is coming up and I am getting really excited. I can't wait to see all the family and friends who are able to make it. It is going to be a lot of fun :)
