Landon's Room is finished!

Landon will be arriving soon and Jennifer has been working really hard on completing his room with all of her craft projects. She finished it yesterday and it could not be any more perfect for our little man. Today marks exactly 1 month left until Landon's due date, which is July 14th. This pregnancy has seemed to fly by even faster than with Brinley and it is mostly because we have been kept super busy with taking care of our little lady. I know that this pregnancy has been difficult and tiring for Jennifer because it is hard to take care of a infant who is turning into a toddler all while being pregnant and feeling miserable at times. Not until talking with a friend the other day did it really hit home for me, but I just happened to figure out that Jennifer has been pregnant for 18 of the last 24 months. It makes Landon's room even more amazing that she was able to make almost all of the decorations. Here are the pictures of Landon's jungle themed room, with a little touch of sports for our little guy.
Door leading into Landon's room. Hand painted by Jennifer. This is the only sports that I could get in the room for now.
Back of the door painting by Jennifer.
Jennifer loves her cricut machine and all the projects that it allows her to do and how quickly she can cut out her different creations.
Doors to Landon's balcony.
Hand painted letters by Jennifer with the giraffe print.
Landon's wall decals with some jungle animals.

Mobile that Jennifer made to be above the rocker.
Nook bedroom area with chevron wall painted by Jennifer. This was done one night after I went to sleep and she didn't tell me she was going to do it. When she gets her mind set on something she doesn't want to stop until she is done.
Painting done by Jennifer that is similar to Landon's bedding. 
See You Later Alligator
Owl Always Love You
Don't Worry Bee Happy

Closet and changing area.

This adequately will describe our house in a few weeks.

As you can see from all the pictures that Jennifer has been a very busy lady. We can't wait until little Landon Michael Heflin makes his arrival. A lot of people have asked me lately what Brinley thinks about having a little brother. I find this funny when they ask because she is clueless to all of it. She is just happy to play, eat and walk around all day long. So we are very interested to see what will happen when she actually gets to meet Landon and what her reaction will be in the following weeks when she isn't always the center of attention. I am very lucky to have a job in which I am allowed time off to spend with my family. Jennifer will be taking off about 8 weeks and I will be spending 4 weeks at home in order to bond as a family of 4. We are extremely excited and scared/nervous all at the same time about what our future will hold once Landon arrives. Although it hasn't been that long ago since we brought Brinley home, I don't remember all the sleepless nights, crying and all the feeding and changing diapers that is involved with a newborn. I just know that Brinley was a pretty good child and we can only hope that Landon is too. We would appreciate all your prayers as we finish all the last minute preparation and after our son arrives. Thanks for reading and God Bless!
