I'll give you one guess who chose this shirt...I drew the line at the 'math league' one. Give the kid a chance!

Nice people

I love nice people. There's a girl in my water aerobics class who is due in 2 weeks. Last week she told me that her sister had given her a bunch of fall/winter maternity clothes. Since this girl's baby is due in Sept, she wouldn't need the clothes and asked if I would like them. Free clothes?! Heck yeah! She brought them today and I just went through them. There are some lounge pants, long sleeved shirts, and nice pants. I was a little nervous because you never know what other people like to wear. So today I scored some new fall clothes. Now if only the weather would get cooler so I could wear them!

Have a great Friday!

Baby Will

Here are a few pictures from the ultrasound.

Oh BOY!!

We had our big ultrasound today! I was really nervous that Peanut was going to be shy and not share with us. At first the ultrasound tech said that he/she had his/her feet crossed at the ankle and tucked underneath his/her bottom so she couldn't see the gender. But then she pushed a little bit and Peanut uncrossed his/her legs. Then we saw that Peanut is a boy!! We are going to name him William David Tanner, William after our dads and David after David. Start buying blue!!

I'll post ultrasound pictures tomorrow.

Barbie?!

I'd always heard that pregnant women have crazy dreams about babies. I usually have really weird dreams, but none of them had a baby in them until last night. In my dream, David and I were driving home from the hospital with a new baby girl. The next day the baby looked more like a doll with long hair and regular clothes on. We took her in the car and asked her what she would like to be named. We were both shocked with our 2 day old girl started suggesting names! I told her that we had one in mind, but couldn't remember it at all. After some random choices from the baby I remembered the name Kaitlyn. She said that was an okay name and it was settled. We got home from wherever we were going (for some reason we were going to a house that was haunted and stealing furniture) and I put the baby down for a nap. When I went to get her up, I discovered that she has turned into a Barbie. I could even see the Barbie doll laying in the pack and play. That was the end of that wild dream. What does it all mean?!?!

I used to play Barbies for hours and hours as a kid. (Remember all of those great times Rachel?). I never thought that playing with them was going to impact my future life, but apparently I was wrong! I really hope I don't have a Barbie as a daughter!!

A great deal!

Who doesn't love to go shopping and find an amazing deal?! I went to Target today (actually 3 of them) and found some great deals. We got a highchair for $25 regularly $100, a travel system (car seat and stroller) for $47 regularly $190 and a slew of baby towels and shoes for $10. I couldn't believe how great the sales were. It made me want to drive to every Target I could find! I have now been bitten by the baby buying bug! JcPenney is having a huge sale tomorrow so I'm going to look for some cute gender neutral clothes. But even if I find some boy or girl clothes for a good price, I can always return them (right Mom?!).

Here's the Graco high chair we found. It has jungle animals on it.

Here is the Graco Travel System. The pattern is called Dot Swirl and it's grey. So cute!

Typical weekend

There's really not anything exciting to blog about right now. The highlight of our weekend was getting a new washer and dryer. All was good until we did our first wash load and then whole thing started shaking like crazy! After much inspection, David realized that the guys totally installed it wrong. They even forgot to take off some plastic wrap. Good thing my husband is super handy because he fixed it and we are back to clean clothes.

I'm still counting down the days until our big ultrasound. I have come to terms with the fact that Peanut might be shy. David swears that if we aren't able to find out the gender, he'll rush out after the baby is born and decorate the nursery accordingly. We'll see about that!! I ordered my diaper bag today. It's the Ultimate Diaper Bag from Pottery Barn in khaki. They were having a sale and it was cheaper online than in the store. Gotta love that! It's the first baby item I've purchased.

Since we don't know the gender yet, I've chosen two bedding sets that I love. The boy one is called "Critter Chatter" and the girl is Laura Ashley "Gabriella". So cute!!
