It Just Might be a BOY!




I went in for an ultrasound today and they were able to get some pretty good shots! One showed that it *might* be a boy, but the tech said not to go out and buy anything just yet. I should have the chance to find out for sure in about 6-8 more weeks! How exciting!!! I went to the library today to check out some baby name books since Jason and I aren't finding boy names we both like. I love Elias and Caleb but he doesn't. Don't you think it's the prefect year to pick a name that could use Eli as a nickname? GO GIANTS!!!

New Card

Forgive my horrible photography skills! Today I actually felt like making a card! I cleaned up my craft room and decided to try my hand at a new card. I wanted to use one of the sets I'd bought used and never tried. I found a card on Splitcoaster Stampers that I decided to CASE, but didn't really have all the supplies. Here's my version, and I think it looks okay. I wish the picture was better, but I'm not that good at taking photos of my paper crafts. I would love some hints if anyone has any!

Here's the recent ultrasound picture from my appointment on Friday. Everything is looking good according to the doctor! They sent me for a ton of bloodwork so let's hope that all comes back okay. Our next appt is Feb 18th!

I know its still really early, but...

how cute is this??? I love it! I have some good ideas for boy rooms too (Astros, of course!), but I really had not found any girl stuff that I was crazy over until this one. I LOVE it! http://www.babysupermall.com/main/products/kli/kli8501bed4.html

Finally....a card!

I finally felt like making a card over the weekend and here's what I came up with. It's not my favorite, but I was playing around with some old and new stuff. It was nice to do something besides sleep!

First Baby Present!


The little one received his/her first gift this week, a very cute stuffed horse! The picture is a little dark, but it is such an adorable animal! Thank to Ms. Juanita on my van pool!
I'm feeling a little better this week, but still really tired. It must take a lot of energy to grow a baby because I'm worn out! It's a struggle to stay awake past 8 o'clock now. Jason has been a sweetie and will sometimes go crash with me so I'm not all alone. We went out for Mexican food last night and it was YUM! I haven't had fajitas in a long time and boy were these good! I'm not sure what we'll get into this weekend. I need to actually plan out a menu for the week and go shopping! That's the next thing on my list for this morning, after breakfast of course! There's a garage sale with baby stuff going on across the street, but I still think it might be early to buy anything, so I'll hold off. I've been looking at bedding and cribs and all that fun stuff, but I keep finding more and more I like so it's hard to choose! If it's a boy, he will definitely have an Astros room. I just hope he'll like baseball as much as I do! I hate to do pink for a girl, so I'll probably either go with purple, or at least brown and pink together.
That's enough of my rambling. I need to go be productive while I'm actually awake!

First Baby Picture




















You can't really see anything on the image they printed out for us to bring home, but we did get to see the heartbeat at the office. Hopefully there will be more details on the next one!
