A Little Facelift

A couple of weeks ago my neighbor had a yard sale. We walked over and I spotted this sad looking chair and it was calling my name! I asked her how much she wanted for it and she said FREE! Woohoo! I'll take it! By the way, this neighbor is the neighbor of my dreams. She has brought us fresh baked pastries TWICE and coffee when we first moved in. She is lovely!

So we brought it home, took some steel wool to it, a can of spray paint and VIOLA! It also bounces a bit so I can only imagine sitting in it for crisp early morning feedings with my new baby boy. Recognize the fabric? It's from here.
I cut up the rest and covered the old patio cushions this weekend. Stay tuned for pics, I still need to finish the couch cushion.

I was 37 weeks on Saturday. I have been walking like crazy to get things moving. I have an appt on Weds to check progress. My last appt my midwife let me know that I tested positive for Group B Strep. Which means, if my water breaks I go straight to the hospital. And instead of following the 411 rule of contractions. I need to go to the hospital more like 711. I am slightly bummed because I REALLY wanted to labor at home as long as I could. This will give my midwife enough time to administer antibiotics to me twice before the baby is born. I find myself daydreaming of my little one all the time, I just can't wait for the moment that I first meet him.

By the way, I am beyond obsessed with the color of the chair, I want to spray paint everything this color! My husband is not as obsessed and would like me to refrain from spraying the whole house! =)
