The baby room is ready! We finished off the room with a cherry finished baby crib and changing table. We were fortunate to find the perfect brown comforter for the twin bed. Everything ties together very nicely.

The next item on our list for the room is a cherry finished dresser. Does Ikea sell cherry finished furnature?

If you haven’t herd the news yet, Heather and I are having a baby girl! We went in for our week 20 visit today and all is well. The due date is January 13, 2009.

Heather and I have been relatively quiet about the baby for a number of months now. It was suggested that we don’t share the news right away just in case something were to happen. We’re now more than 1/2 way through the pregnancy, we think it is now safe to let the world know of our good fortune.

We are just now looking at preparing the house for the baby. Last weekend we picked out a green paint for the baby’s room and purchased matching bedding. I’m pretty sure I’ll be spending a lot of time researching baby car seats and other important baby items. So as long as I have time, I’ll blog about my research as well as other baby happenings.

Thanks to everyone on-line, on messenger and on Twitter for the congratulations! Heather and I greatly appreciate it.
