Starting to look a bit more put together

The watch dog...she decides who comes in and out of the baby room. She is too funny, she is in there all the time. Just checking out things, watching out the window and "helping" me while I put things away. Today she "helped" me put together a shelving unit. Her contribution was shredding the styrofoam packing material all over the living room and trying to put her baby and bone into the new shelf. Crazy mutt! She is sporting her new collar tonight. It is a training collar to help her when she is outside and not so focused on listening. I tested out the signal noise it makes and it caught her attention. Hoping that is all the reinforcement she will need.

I made a trip to the outlets yesterday hoping to pick up a few baby clothes, and a few more shirts for myself since I am officially out of scrub tops. Struck out with most of the baby stuff, but did get some shirts. And of course a trip to Williamsburg is not complete without stocking up on the Yankee Candles at the flagship store. I found this sign there.

I really wanted somethings to hang on the wall where we didn't paint. I love this quote and had this sign made. It came out even nicer than I thought it would. Can't wait to hang it up. I have a shelf, a small rug and one other picture on the way. Will post some more pics once they are here and in place. I think we are almost ready. Or as ready as we ever will be. Now if we can just get word if Brandon will make it home. We hope so, but we are still in the waiting game. It would be the best prize ever if he made it home. I will skip out on Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries etc if he gets to come home. Fingers crossed.

Hope all you Dads, Grandpas, Papas, Uncles and all our Dad Friends had a great day today!
