He Finished It!

I've talked to a lot of people about how talented Travis is. Well, here is the proof. Travis has finished making the crib for our little baby boy. It is beautiful. Even more beautiful in person. It is also sturdy with both sides having the option to lower.The main parts of the crib are made out of cherry wood. (Travis wanted a very specific stain so the color would be perfect). The inlaid, darker wood is called Paduk, it is from Africa. It really adds a nice accent. And it only has a natural stain on it so it is naturally that red.Isn't he handsome next to his beautiful work of art?I finally broke down and took a picture of myselft. Here is my little basketball. My brother and sister-in-law said I really look like I just stuck a ball under my shirt. That makes me feel better and not so fat. This is exactly two weeks to my due date.

WOW the crib looks amazing!! Travis did a great job. I think your belly is cute and you don't look fat, but I remember being uncomfortable so I hope he comes soon!! I wish you the best.
