We are getting in baby mode around here! We finished up the nursery over the weekend and have gotten all of the baby stuff clean and ready to go. Our little man should be here in about 3 weeks (or less if he decides to come early :) I had Ellie at 36 weeks so it feels a little weird (but good) to be making it closer to the end. Hello, huge belly!
We are going to name our baby boy, Mayes McCarter Jones, after Carter's great uncle, John Mayes McCarter. He passed away last summer and was always such a big part of Carter's life. He was one of the greatest Christian men we have ever known and lived his life to serve the Lord. He and aunt Anita were never able to have children, and I know they would have been so honored that we chose to name our baby after him. If our little Mayes turns out to be half the man that uncle John was, then I think we will have raised him right :)
Here are some pics of the nursery. We used all of Ellie's old furniture, and I repainted the green chest gray. My mom made the new bedding for us, and I just added in some new "boyish" accessories. We really like how it turned out and can't wait for Mayes to get here!
