Update on the baby, baby's room, and allergies

First thing is first, no update. Cari is still very much pregnant and still scheduled for induction on Monday. My brother's birthday is today and he really wants the baby to born today (8/8/08). We are going over there for dinner and he is ordering the Cafe Trio Labor pizza in hopes it will help things along. :-)

Cari wanted me to post some pictures of the baby's room. We painted it and did a strip around the room that will match the crib set. We have done as much as we can at this point until the baby comes. Once the baby comes we can break out the baby stuff Cari has bought (crib & cradle set, vinyl saying for the wall, etc).

As you can see no crib set yet (would give away what the baby is). Also a vinyl saying will go on the wall in the window frame.

There is actually a poem in the picture frame on the wall that would give away what the baby is (don't worry I haven't read it). Good luck trying to read it :-) The other picture frame will have a picture of the baby in it.

Lastly, I just wanted to let everyone know about my great visit to the Allergist today. For those that don't know my eyes have been itching and burning for about a month. I have also been very congested, sneezing, and have had a runny nose during the entire time as well. I have never had any problems with allergies in the past. Cari sent me to the Allergist to find out what is going on. Anyway, they did the scratch test on my back and apparently I showed reactions to everything: trees, grass, weeds, mold, animals (he specifically mentioned cats, dogs, cows), and dust. I blame all of this on the baby, I have been having all sorts of sympathy problems this pregnancy: cravings, onset allergies, etc. I am so ready for this pregnancy to be over. :-) I am now on a strict regimen of 4 different medications and have to go back in a month. Cari thinks this is absolutely hilarious. Most unfortunate!!!!! ARRRGGHHH!!!!!
