We were both born and raised in Mississippi, but have settled down in Sunny Florida. We are blessed with a wonderful son, Colten, who was born October 29th, 2008. We are so lucky to be blessed beyond belief!

5 1/2 Months!
So I'm 22 weeks pregnant now, 5 1/2 MONTHS! Our crib arrived on Friday, and Michael put it together while I was at work. And also, Colten let me take some pictures of him today! He's usually way too busy to stop for a photo. We have had a blast on this beautiful day! I also have some belly shots!

21 Weeks....
So I'm 21 weeks pregnant now! Over halfway done. Today was a very exciting day! Thanks to the generous gift from my Mama and Daddy, I got to order the furniture for Caslin's Nursery!! She's excited, too! She's moving around a little right now :) THE CRIB: (this is a photo from a website, not my actual room!)
One of Michael's very good friend's that he works with, Dennis, has a grown daughter who has given us bags and bags of hand me down clothes for Colten. Last week, the sent us baby girl clothes and a tummy time mat! All the clothes are namebrands with NO stains. Some still had the tags!!!

Starting Caslin's Nursery...
So this weekend, we started on our baby girl's nursery. After looking for literally hours and hours, I decided on a theme! A pink, black, and white Paris themed nursery. All of the bedding I liked was way too expensive, so Michael and I both decided to just do it ourselves! We will not be using a crib bumper, since the Academy of Pediatrics recommends nothing in the crib when baby is sleeping. A bumper is a huge SIDS risk, so we don't want to chance having anything in the crib that our sweet Caslin could suffocate on. We will be making a blanket, crib skirt, and curtains. We also repainted and recovered my ugly, oak glider rocker. Here is the new rocker:

Intelligender Says....
Intelligender is an at home urine test that claims to predict whether you are having a BOY or GIRL based on hormones present in your urine. Most moms I've talked to claim that it's complete bull, but I took it just for fun, since this is my last baby!

Well, Intelligender said...BOY!!
We will see on March 21st whether it's correct! I'm not sure either way to be honest. This pregnancy is so different, so part of me thinks it could be a girl. But another boy would be amazing. Either way, Michael and I want a healthy baby, 10 fingers and 10 toes! We have baby names picked out, but Michael demands that we keep them top secret until after our big ultrasound!
I'm currently 14 weeks 3 days pregnant and Sweetpea is the size of a lemon!!! He/She is getting so big!
The Mommy To Be (again) is doing okay. I'm sick almost all of the time, and I hate all food. I'm also getting over the stomach bug (yuck). I am over the moon in love with this baby. I've already felt my first flutters and it is so exciting!!!
We have a regular appointment on Thursday and I can't wait to hear the heartbeat!

First Trimester is ALMOST over!!
I'm currently 13 weeks 2 days pregnant. I am in my very last week of my 1st trimester! It has been a rough pregnancy so far. I've been very nauseous and exhausted beyond belief. Michael has been a SAINT. He's been cooking dinner and getting Colten ready for bed most nights. This pregnancy is VERY VERY different from my pregnancy with Colten. 5 weeks from today on March 21st, we will find out if I get to start buying Blue or Pink! We are very, very excited.
I'm now seeing my regular OB and midwife right now. I'm so happy to be done with the specialists for now. So far, everything with Sweetpea has been great. Yesterday, I felt him/her move for the very first time!!! We were headed back from Sonic and BOOM, a move or kick. It was exciting and I cried. It was such a special moment. I think our little baby to be loves tator tots!


Me at 13 weeks 2 days pregnant!


My first buy for Sweetpea!

I've had my 1st trimester screening and NT scan already, and everything is looking great! We are very excited to start working on the baby room. We are still having a REALLY TOUGH TIME picking out boy names!
I LOVE Preston Bray, Michael hates it.
We are also considering Keegan. I like Benson, but Michael is not crazy about that. Our top secret girl name has already been chosen.
Today is Valentine's day. Colten had a party at his daycare. He told me all about having cookies and cupcakes. He also got a timeout for biting! I hope this isn't a start of a bad habit!

Loving his candy!
