12 weeks

Only one more week until I enter my second trimester!!! Yall I am SO excited about that. It's just a HUGE milestone to accomplish. I will feel a lot more peace about the pregnancy and that we will actually be able to see and hold our baby in February! PLUS I am SO looking forward to having more energy and being less sick-I've slowly been getting more energy back and slooowly been less sick these past few days!

I also think I look more like a pregnant person now instead of just looking fat! That's always good! And even though my belly continues to grow every week, I think it's slowed down a lot. I am almost 4 months now and look it, instead of being 2 months pregnant and looking like I'm 4 months! I'm enjoying being pregnant now! And once I feel the baby move and find out what it is, I'll be as happy as a clam!



Only 6 weeks and 5 days until we find out what our peanut is (God willing!!!)!

I've FOUND it!

I was shopping in Sugarfoots this week and I found my baby bedding! Boy AND girl!!

Here is the girl bedding...


And the boy bedding...


Halleluah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can relax now!

Show Us Your Life!

The theme for Show Us Your Life this week is Wedding Party/Flowers! Hop on over to Kelly's blog to join in!

So be prepared-I'm going to overload you with pictures! I had Jester's do my flowers (they are here in Ttown). The flowers were the one thing I refused to skimp on. I wanted PINK, I wanted BIG and I wanted PRETTY! So I paid an outrageous price for them! And when I say I, I mean my Dad!

Here is my bouquet.


My throw away bouquet


In the very back, on the stage, are three HUGE flower arrangements! This was the only picture I had of them!


The pew markers



Some flowers at the reception


Flowers surrounding the unity candle (and my Mom!)

My flowers again and my bridesmaid's flower....leading me to my wedding party! From left to right they are Katie-my stepsister, Julie-a friend from childhood, Me, April-my sister and Matron of Honor, and Abby-my best friend and Maid of Honor!

Brad's groomsmen were Keith-his brother and Best Man, Michael-his brother, Jacob-our long time friend and Forrest-his brother.

Because our flower girl wasn't really walking at the time, Griffin (to the left of Brad) and Peyton (in front of Brad) pulled Marley (in my lap) in a wagon down the aisle! And Greyson (between Brad and I) was our ring bearer! The boys are all our nephews and Marley is a friend's daughter.



And there you have it!

Hurry up 2nd trimester!!

So in the past week, I've been experiencing a LOT of this...



and this...



Holy crap this is hard. For the headaches, I've tried drinking a Mt. Dew and it helps sometimes. And my doctor said that I could take Tylenol but I really don't like doing that. So I don't know what else to try.

And for the nausea, I bought some of this today...


And let me tell you-I would rather be nauseaous than taste that crap again!! YUCK! I've also tried sucking on hard candy....now it makes me sick to taste the candy!

So I need some ideas of things to try! I'm all out of ideas.

Baby Bedding

Yall I am majorly stressing out about the baby bedding. I can't find any that I like! And I want to at least narrow down the field to one boy bedding and one girl bedding so that as soon as we find out what we are having, we can get started on the nursery!

SO....where did you get your baby bedding or where have you seen some super cute stuff??? I don't really want any bold colors-I want baby looking colors. And remember that my furniture is white!

Thanks for the help!

Ultrasound

Two posts in one day=Go Me! I uploaded the short version of our ultrasound from last Friday. Here you go!


11 weeks

This week I've finally been getting some energy back! The nausea has been in full force, but hopefully that won't last too much longer. My belly is growing like crazy....I think it looks bigger in pictures than it does in person, though.




We also finished putting together the baby furniture this weekend! Now we just need to know the sex of the baby so we can paint and decorate! The armoire wasn't as big as I thought it was going to be, so I was a little disappointed by that. BUT at least the room isn't as crowded as I thought it was going to be either!!

This is the crib. Excuse the tools everywhere!



The armoire



The changing table-my favorite!



And is everybody else as excited about The Bachelorette Finale tonight as I am!??!?
