Levi’s nursery is pretty much done! I’m sure we’ll still do some organizing as we adjust to life with a newborn but it’s a good start. Now we just need a little baby boy to fill the room. 🙂 The chair is currently covered with a sheet. It will have a proper slipcover in the near future – Grandma is making one! {She also made his bedding!} Picture frames will get pictures as soon as Levi makes his debut and mommy can take his picture. 🙂 The closet organizer was built by Mike. Didn’t he do a great job?!?!

Baby Kicks!
Baby Levi is starting to kick! This morning, I finally felt his kick from the outside. I was sitting with my arm resting on my belly and he totally made my arm move! So sweet. Now we just need Levi to cooperate so Daddy can feel him. 🙂
A Name for Baby Camp
Mike and I have come to a decision on a name for our little one. And since we are not keeping it a secret we thought we would let everyone know what it is. 🙂 Our little boy will be Levi Michael. We are very excited to have a name for him and to call him this instead of “the baby”. Now to get the nursery decorated!
