Baby News!!

Well kids, I can't believe that I'm 20 weeks! Actually, 20 weeks and 3 days-on Friday I'll be 21 weeks. Anyway, last Wednesday we had our ultrasound. It was AMAZING. Seriously-so awesome. Most amazing was finding out the gender: IT'S A BOY!!!!!!  We couldn't be happier. He's looking good-measuring right where he's supposed to, and he was moving around like crazy in there!!


We got a disc full of pictures and even video. I'll post a couple pics and I'll try to insert the video too. Also, baby boy has a name! Nolan James. So far it's gotten some pretty good reviews, so that's good. We also started one of our registries too! So there has been a lot going on in the past week.






The first pic is a profile pic and the second one you can actually kinda see his face-which is crazy. I'm already so in love with him!




We have lots of other stuff going on as well-but I think this is enough info to cram into a post for now. Look for an update later on this week! I hope everyone had as wonderful of a holiday as I have. I definitely feel very blessed this holiday season!

I totally LOVE this

So, I have a handbag fetish. Always have. Always will. Something about a gorgeous bag that just makes me weak in the knees!

Keeping that in mind, I found a diaper bag that is so amazing...so gorgeous....Ohhh...Emmm...Geeee. I am a big fan of the idea that the diaper bag is ACTUALLY for the mom. It doesn't need to look like a diaper bag and it doesn't need to have puppies and flowers and crap on it. This bag of my dreams is the Skip Hop Studio Diaper Tote. Check it out:

Isn't it beautiful!! I like this one which I believe is Pewter Dots, and I also like the Black one. Features include:

  • 14 pockets & zip-top closure (big enough for most laptops)
  • Zip pocket protected by Agion® antimicrobial lining
  • Two roomy insulated side bottle pockets
  • Quilted cushioned changing pad
  • Water-resistant inside & out
  • PVC-free, eco-friendly materials
  • Snap-down front pocket lets you stash a blanket/bib underneath
  • Nickel feet keep STUDIO off the ground & scuff-free
  • Hangs neatly on a stroller & can be worn over the shoulder
  • Contrasting lining makes it easy to find what you need
  • Dimensions (inches): 17 wide x 12 tall x 6 deep (43.2 X 30.5 X 15.2 CM)


Drawback? There are none. Unless you consider price a drawback. It's $90. I've paid that for a handbag before-and this is so much more than that! Is that too expensive to put on my registry? Ehh...ya know, I can always put it on there, and when I don't get it, I will get a discount on what's left on my registry! I may have just figured out how to beat the system! It will be mine....oh yes...it will be mine.

Drive by post

Okay-just real quickly.

Lots going on-lots to update about. It's all good-don't worry. :)

Baby is good-we have an appointment Thursday and then the big ultrasound is fast approaching. Christmas will be in Cleveland-hooray!! We might be buying....and actually building a house (long story). If $1000 could just fall out of the sky for our earnest money that would be helpful so we could get going on this.

I'm super tired and ready for bed and I have no real updates on anything. So give me a few days to sort out details and I'll be back with a proper update. :)
 
Hope all is well out in blog land!
