Milestone update!

Today, I'm officially 6 months pregnant. Where has the time gone?

Only 16 weeks (give or take a few days!) until Jamie's here!

Baby Mine

Rest your head close to my heart,
never to part,
baby of mine.

Little one when you play,
don't you mind what they say.
Let those eyes sparkle and shine,
never a tear,
baby of mine.

If they knew sweet little you
they'd end up loving you two.
All of those people who scold you
what they'd give just for the right to hold you.

From your head down to your toes,
you're not much, goodness knows.
But you're so precious to me,
sweet as can be,
baby of mine.

If they knew sweet little you,
they'd end up loving you too.
All those same people who scold you,
what they'd give just for the right to hold you.

From your head down to your toes
you're not much, goodness knows.
But you're so precious to me,
sweet as can be,
baby of mine.
Baby of mine





This is one of my favorite songs; I'm listening to the Alison Krauss version now, but many will remember this song from Dumbo.

Jamie's Room

The nursery isn't done yet, but I already have a collection of stuff!

P.S. I'm 23 weeks, so only 17 weeks until we meet our little guy. I tried to make the pictures look nice, but I can't help but feel that some of them have that "ebay" look to them. Oh, well.





Here is the nursery so far. We still need carpeting and the shelves need to be installed in the closet.



I caved and bought this fleece suit from Old Navy. He'll need something to keep him warm in that cold January weather.





I found some old baby blankets at my parents' house a few weekends ago, and I really like the dinosaur pjs, flight school tshirt and onesie. A better picture of the dinosaur pjs are below.







How awesome is this outfit? I think it's for around 3-6 months, and I love the frog in the pocket.



I found this Fisher Price monitor set on Craigslist last week. Scott and I tested them out, and they work perfectly.



This is a sweater that's actually older than me: it was made for my brother, Jonathan, when he was a baby. And here's a better look at those dinosaur pjs. I'm a big fan of pjs; I predict that Jamie and I will be spending a lot of time wearing pjs around the house.





And lastly, we have this little lion. The day after I found out I was pregnant, I bought him. I just thought he was adorable and it was nice to have some kind of baby item, to make the pregnancy feel more real.


I can't wait to post more pictures, so stay tuned!

Wedded Bliss.

Scott and I had our wedding on Saturday. It was one of the best days of my life. The weather was perfect, our friends and family were there, the cake was delicious...




 

 






I couldn't have asked for a better day.

21 weeks!



Scott took a picture of me outside after lunch. I'm so proud of my bump and the little baby who likes to kick me.

Wow.

Sometimes it just hits me, and I think "I'm going to be a Mom."

Wow.

It's the best feeling in the world and I can't describe it better than that.

Prenatal classes!

I'm pretty excited -- I just registered for several prenatal classes at my hospital. I have Labor Basics and Baby Basics next month, and in November, Breastfeeding, For Baby's Sake (baby proofing and whatnot), and Safe Ride (everything car seat related). In December, we'll take a hospital birthing tour.

I may look into some other classes, too. There's so much out there.
