It’s a new day. After my post yesterday, I feel like I need to reassure some of you that I have taken a step back from the ledge. The step was a small one, but it was a step nonetheless!

I thought, on a happier note, that today I would share something about the baby that I’m feeling pretty excited about and proud of. (Not that I’m not excited about the baby in general, but with the labor and delivery discussion very fresh in mind, you understand why I might focus on something special, right?)

Jeff and I looked online at a number of mobiles, trying to pick the perfect one for Baby Lorow. I stewed over the colors and what would look nice in the nursery/guest room. We didn’t want one that attached to the crib because we planned to hang the mobile over the changing table instead. There were many cute ones out there, but we just couldn’t decide. So, I got the big idea to make my own! I found a place where I was able to order the frame for the mobile, rather inexpensively by the way, so that all I had to do was think about crafting something cute.

I purchased products from the Actopus to Zelephant line at Michaels with an idea of doing a mix of alphabet and animals. On Monday, I finally settled in and started piecing together some ideas. I finished last night, and I am thrilled with the outcome! I hope Baby Lorow will enjoy gazing up this mobile.
