Recently I've been thinking about changing tables (surprise, surprise) and how a lot of babies seem to need distraction while they're on them. And since I haven't been able to find a cute mobile to suspend over our little gal while she's being changed, I decided to go with a different form of visual stimulation to occupy her. My friend Kathryn was given a toy that has black and white images on it that she said her baby loved to stare at on the changing table. When I went searching online, the cheapest I could find them for was about $30 (like
this one). So I went to Michaels and found a styrofoam bifold on sale and some great black, white and red stationery and made my own! And I think it turned out pretty cute.
Here's one side, laid flat:

And the other side when it's folded.

I'll probably buy some ribbon to attach it to the wall next to her changing table if I can't get it to stay up just being propped.
And once again we skipped a week, but we are now officially at 36 weeks!

I can't believe how soon this little girl will be here. Look how excited I am!!

And one more picture for you, yesterday we went to a luau at our friend's the Church's house. We had a fantastic time. Joel found a fabulous hawaiian t-shirt for the occasion. I could not fit in to the grass skirt we had at home, but my old navy dress was just as festive.
