Baby Project #1 - Finished

I've set myself up to do nine projects for baby boy.  With a four week countdown (!!!) and all project started (and making a giant mess), I've got to get in finishing mode and wrap these up!

I tried to explain to Gavin the nature of nesting as being a real, true need.  More than an urge, more than a funny label to put on kooky pregnant behavior, much more than a whim.  I need to have my entire house in order to feel ready to give birth.  Down to the tops of closets, which I will soon be obnoxiously obsessed with.  All the tops of all the closets in my whole house.

Project #1: Paint Dresser.  Sari and I got this dresser when we were little.  I'm having a memory of a tape line down the middle of the top, front, then zig-zagging across the rest of the room to divide mine and hers.  She often put me in a conundrum with the door on her side and me having to go to the bathroom real bad.  Sisters rule.
