Warning to pregnant women

Don't even JOKE about going into labor early, cuz it will show up in your dreams. I made some joke, knock on wood, yesterday about going into labor early and last night I dreamt that I was feeling movement everywhere in my belly. I dreamt that I woke up to find that I could see Olivia through my belly, that she had somehow gotten out of my uterus and I could see her underneath my skin..her hands, her blue eyes. It was like that science fiction film where the creepy crawlers are crawling up someones body under their skin. Then, I go to my dad, who happens to be in the next room to see if I should go to the hospital, or if he could put Olivia back. He tries to put her back in my uterus, though my skin and O won't go back. So, we end up going to the hospital, but, as you can imagine, it's hard to dress while a baby is moving around loose in your belly. Then, I went for my white sweat pants, because they were the most comfortable, and I remember thinking that "John's going to hate this" (because he HATES my white sweatpants)(but they ARE comfortable). Then I wake up and realize that O is still safely secure in my belly... sigh of relief.
So, I decided to document our current stage of readiness as far as the nursery. We received some decorations from my mom with "O" or Olivia and then we have the crib (the infamous Ikea crib that goes with nothing) and the infamous-er expensive, but oh-so-comfortable glider. I'll keep updating as we get more stuff. I do have clothes, and burp cloths put away...so those are part of the evolution of the baby room too:
