Baby Registry

With all the shower talk, I wanted to let everyone know I'm registered at Target. I started to register at BabiesRUs as well, but haven't added much to it. They have a lot of the same things as Target. Nursery is blue and brown (picture of the crib bedding is below in the blog). Fun times!! Let me know if anyone has any recommendations on registry items or where to register!

Pregnancy: 24 Weeks (6 Months)



One day, I woke up, and I had a belly...

Here I am - 6 months pregnant. Time has flown!! I can't believe in just a few months, our little baby boy will be here. I'm excited, anxious, and nervous - all at once. It's funny - I've been recording TLC A Baby Story and Bringing Home Baby, torturing myself! No - it's been good. I think it's giving me more realistic expectations of what is ahead and how much work having a newborn really is. Anyway, I'll try to post more often. It's been a busy last few weeks!

Project Nursery: Phase I

Maddox's room will be what is CURRENTLY our office/workout room. This weekend, Don decided it was time to give up his room. It was difficult, but he was a trooper! I ordered the crib bedding. And Don took all of his workout equipment to the garage (which is his new workout area). He's a good man....

I'll post pictures of PROJECT NURSERY as we go along.

Maddox Lee Mayall: The Nursery


I finally found the baby bedding I want to buy for Maddox's nursery. This is too cute. No - this isn't our nursery - it's just a picture from the magazine!
It's kind of modern. Blue (which is adoreable) and I just love the turtles and dots. I don't think I'll go with the blue walls, but the basic bedding - we've just fell in love with it.
Hopefully Maddox will like it too! :-)
I'm not doing a "turtle" theme, either. The blue and brown is more what I'm going for. The only thing that is turtle from this picture that I have is the quilt, bumper and rug.

Maddox Lee Mayall: It's a Boy!!!

Everyone meet Maddox Lee Mayall...









That's right! We're having a boy!!! We're so excited. The ultrasound was so much fun, and it was VERY obviously a boy. (Donald says he takes after his dad). :-) We can't wait for the little guy to get here. Now the fun stuff begins (shopping!)

Pregnant: 18 Weeks (4 months) - I felt the baby move!


I think I felt the baby move/kick for the first time!! It's a little early; so it's kind of hard to tell, but I really really think it was the baby!!! I was working as usual and dropped my pen. So, I bent over to pick it up (my belly being pushed into my legs a little) and that's when I felt it! It was 3 small little tapping-type feelings in the same spot! It was distinct enough that my eyes got really big and I emailed Donald right away! :-) The baby is still small and it's a little early to be completely sure, but I wanted to make sure I capture that first moment I think I felt the baby move. I'm all smiles right now.

Closet Nightmare


I decided to take on a project this weekend - organizing my closet. Jax was doing his best to assist. I pulled out a bunch of clothes and a few minutes later noticed Jax decided to take a break. I had to take a picture and wanted to share. Too cute!
