Baby's Room

We finished the baby's room this past weekend and it turned out PERFECT!! I LOVE IT! :) My mom, sister, mother-in-law & grandma came for the weekend to help. It was so much fun!! I still did a lot of the painting since I always HAVE to be involved. ;) I found this tree online, scanned and copied it to a powerpoint and then we projected it on the wall... EASY! I love the colors... green & brown... can you tell?!

Just in case...

So... I have held back from going into baby clothing stores because I knew I wouldn't be able to resist the urge of buying!! Since we are not finding out the sex... I shouldn't be buying any gender specific clothing... cause it will be a waste of $$!! We had friends over for dinner last weekend... they have a 3 month old and she was wearing the CUTEST little pink monkey outfit! I love monkeys and I was happy to see that they have girl monkey stuff!! So... I went to Gymboree and bought the outfit. :) It's even cuter in person cause it's SO tiny....


The Baby Bump has arrived!

I'm so excited... the baby bump has officially arrived and I think it's growing by the hour! Thank goodness... cause I was just starting to feel like I was fat. :( Here it is...








I am now almost 22 weeks prego... that's 5 1/2 Months! I can't believe it! I feel the little bean kicking all day and I absolutely love it. I spend a lot of time at night saying.... "casey, come here... I think you can feel it!" and then he puts his hand on my lower stomach and we just sit there. Ok, so maybe it's not strong enough for him to feel yet... but I sure can feel it!!! In fact some times, I think the bean is kicking my bladder. I am sure this about to become much more of a problem as it grows! We had out 20 week ultrasound a couple weeks ago and the baby was completely curled up in a ball with it's hands & legs in front of it's face. The tech had me get up move around and cough all to try and make the little one move but the bean was fast asleep. The heart rate was a little lower than it normally is so now I officially think it's a boy.... ? Who knows. We are NOT finding out the sex of the baby and it's absolutely the most exciting thing ever! I've already decorated the room with green... the options are pretty limited when you're not finding out but I really LOVE the Petunia Pickle Botton bedding... it's beautiful!

Anyway... they weren't able to get all the proper measurments from the ultrasound so we have to have another one at our 24 week appointment! YAHOO!! The baby is approximetly 101/2 inches long and weighs around 12oz. :) I keep getting out my ruler at my desk and hold it to my stomach that's a lot of baby in there... and it's only going to get bigger! :)

We celebrated our 1st Anniversary last weekend. I can't believe it's been a year since we were in beautiful Mexico!! Lot's can happen in a year! Happy Anniversary Baby!
