Maternity Clothes: My favorites are my skinny black pants and tops from Gap Maternity.  And I got them all on clearance!


Names: My favorite middle names start with M, B, D, and E.

Gender: It's a surprise!



Baby Movement: There is something alien about having a baby move inside of you.  Don't you think?


Sleep:   I wish my dog would stay in her dog bed all night instead of jumping up on our bed.


Food Aversions: None.



THINGS/PROGRESS TO DO: The crib is all painted!  The dresser is painted with new knobs!  Next we will paint the trim in the baby's room white and hang up curtains/shades.  Then we get to decorate.



Best Moments of the Week: Spaghetti dinner at my parents' house, book club, cuddles with Tootsie.  Seeing photos of my new baby cousin Bristol.  I got my hair colored for the first time in over 2 years.

Here is our dresser painted with new knobs, the new light to put on the wall and a wet diaper bag handmade by Becca. I just love owls right now!

Here are a few more baby presents--a baby book from Betsy that I have been filling out, a picture frame from Lacey and thank you notes from my parents.

The walls are now officially "Friendly Yellow".  Next we paint the trim white.

And, Matthew installed two new windows in the baby's room.
