Babies R Us

Yesterday, Mom, Me, Brooke (and Crewe) went to Babies R Us so I could register for a few things! From diapers to clothing to toys, etc. I think we covered quite a few things that I'll be needing!

Most people have asked, and we will have 2 nurserys. One in Zebulon and one at Bulls Bay. Since we split our time between the 2 anyway (pretty much evenly), we figured we'd go ahead & make both places as accommodating to Grace as possible to eliminate having to carry so much stuff back & forth. I found this cute bedding online before registering and thought it was perfect for the Bulls Bay house. Aunt Chris is letting us use the nursery furniture that was Haley's at the Bay, so I think this will go nicely. This bedding and accessories isn't sold at the store but somehow they happened to have the bedding set in the store yesterday so I swipped it to eliminate shipping costs! Now I can take it to the bay this week and get started decorating... (hopefully)!

We've yet to pick out anything nursery wise for the lake yet. Hopefully we can do that soon.

Scott & I

Scott and I had our pictures taken last month by my cousin Tripp's wife's sister, Kelli, who lives out in Utah/CA and was coming into Wilmington to visit with them. I picked her up from the airport in Raleigh and she took our pictures at the lake house before heading their way. Here's a few from our session.






We figured we'd go ahead and take some pictures since we hardly have any of us anyway. And, before my belly gets too big! ;) We hope you all have a *very* Merry Christmas!! XOXO

Another Ultrasound

Yesterday we found out that we were expecting a baby girl, but needed to go back to the doctor today for another Ultrasound to check some other things. Here are a few photos of today's ultrasound.

Here's Baby Grace's Profile:

And here's her footprint:


Gigi & Big Daddy went with me to the doctor today and they got to see the ultrasound. Everything is going to be OK!

Appointment Rescheduled

Meet Tater at approximately 19 weeks and 4 days.

My appointment got changed to today, rather than the day before Christmas Eve, so we got an even earlier Christmas Present. We found out that Tater is...





*A GIRL!*

We didn't tell anyone that our appointment got changed so we could call everyone at our own convience and surprise them with the news! We're very excited to be welcoming a little girl into our world! We haven't decided on a definite name yet. However we have a few that we are toying around with. Our favorite is Grace. That was Scott's grandmother's name and I love the name so we're definitely using it. No matter what we put with it I'm sure we'll call her Grace unless the name we use with it is cute enough to use as a double name!

Scott was very nervous. He hates doctors offices and it tends to make him a little queasy! He did fairly good through the ultrasound, but was constantly moving around, he just couldn't sit still. Neither could the baby. She moved during the whole ultrasound! Guess we know where she gets that from! :)

Doctor's Appointment

I went to the doctor today and everything is looking fine! Scott and I will go the day before Christmas Eve to find out the sex of the baby! We're excited to find out if Tater will be a boy or a girl. I have a feeling it's a boy but a lot of people keep telling me it's a girl... we'll see in a few more weeks!
