Sorry it's been so long

24 weeks 4 days...which means that this week has been the end of my 6th month. Super exciteg and yet super overwhelming as well. I never thought it would go this fast.

Since I last logged in Mion and I have purchased a crib, I was able to find exactly what I wanted and we are now in the process of prepping it for paint. After seeing the picture of our bedding in the pottery barn catalogue I just couldn't picture anything but a RED crib...So that's what were doing. We picked out a color called Heirloom Red at Lowe's, it's a really hearty brick red. Perfect for our bouncing baby boy.

We had our 6 month appointment on Thursday and all is still well. Par for the course we are still Mr. Man continues to stay just a little bit ahead of all the measurements. Even thought we moved my due date up to match him last month, this month he is measuring about 2 weeks ahead again. According to the Fundal (the top of the uterus) Height he is at 27 weeks. (Dad, sounds like the nickname "Moose" was spot on!) Chances are that we are just at the tale end of a big growth spurt. We'll see what our next appointment holds. If "Moose" continues to measure that far ahead we may indeed tweak the date again. Let's hope not, I'm not at all prepared for an August delivery. YIKES!!!

I'm two days into a 6 day vacation. I'm really just taking some time to get some things in order. Plus Monday is Mion and my 3rd anniversary so we are going to try and head south to the cold springs in Sulfur. All I want to do is find a rock by the water so that I can put my toes in the water and lay in the sun like a little prego lizard...But much cuter!

Mion and I have settled on a first name and are working on a middle....No, I'm not announcing it here...You all get your own private announcement. :)

This is a picture of the nursery bedding we picked out. I just got the bumper pad this afternoon, and if you can belive it, it's even cuter in person!!! :) I found it on the Pottery Barn Kids website on clearance. And since it was on clearance some of the essential pieces where sold out. But we were able to find them all on EBAY. We got the Quilt, Bumperpad, Duvet Cover, Sham, Crib skirt & lamp shade for under $300.

I KNEW IT!!!

Well like most of you know I was totally right!!! It's a little boy! Mion and I are very excited and are starting to work on names. It's really tough! I thought I had a pretty good idea of what kind of names we would like and even had a few front runners.....WRONG! Now that we are picturing a little curly headed toddler running around Grandpa Don's barn we are back to the drawing board.
