     Dang dude...your CRIB is phat YO! (Your house is very pleasing to the eye; Contemporary flare, yet structurally sound. May I have a look around my good man?)
 
All that to say, we have an assembled crib and changing table. 
 
Like a child's bed, not a cattle pen.  And our crib/home/domicile/dwelling?  Also still a work in progress.
 
After some minor cursing, some strong directions following, and some valiant efforts by me to sit two floors away and not "help", Shawn did an awesome job getting Robbie's crib ready to go.
 
We now have paint.  We have somewhere for baby to sleep.  We have a few outfits for him to wear. 
 
What else do we need other than baby??
 
Tomorrow marks 33 weeks pregnant
 
We're very much looking forward to the friends and family coming in town this weekend for the baby shower.  It's all becoming more and more real each day.
 
And a 33 week baby in utero?  The length of that 17 inch laptop screen you are looking at right now, and the weight of a large pineapple.  (Well, a pineapple is 4 pounds, and baby E was almost 4.5 last week.  He should be gaining up to 8 oz. per week for the rest of the pregnancy!)
