A rug for baby girl

After getting in a fight (words, no fists) with the Pottery Barn Outlet sales girl (she initially refused to sell this to me because it didn't have a tag), we purchased our first item for the baby's room- a rug. We both liked this (especially Kevin) because it isn't overpowered by pink, but has a nice blend of pastels. 

A car seat!

Even though we have a few months to go, we decided to start putting a few things together. The holidays are going to keep us busy and then before we know it, our little lady will be here! We can't wait to meet her!

Some belly pictures

Here are some belly pictures of me at 23 weeks. "What to Expect..." considers the 23rd week the beginning of the 6th month, so here we go! Not too much longer! I just don't understand how it is physically possible for my stomach to grow even bigger than it already is- it seems pretty sizable already. (And I am sure the horizontal stripes in these photos don't help things!)


Our baby girl is such a blessing and the belly reminds us of that every single day! Her kicks are another "gentle" reminder that she is with us. What a busy girl- the strength of her kicks amaze me. She is quite active!

It's a girl!

We found out today that we are having a girl! Here is a picture of her face.
