First Few Items for Baby

So Jeff and I have bought nothing for the baby yet....that is until this weekend when we ordered our crib and I was gifted a comfy rocker for my birthday from Jeff's family!!!

The crib we ordered is below....got a sweet deal of 25% off which made me really happy and allowed us to get a more expensive one that we otherwise might not have went with.



















Now here is my lovely glider that I am looking forward to using!!! I think it looks great and is oh soo comfy!



















Next decision is what colour to paint the baby room...but I want to wait and see what we are having first and then pick out the bedding before I decide on a room colour.

I am also in the process of dealing on the dream stroller I want...I found one used that the family bought in August and have a surprise second child on the way in June....so they need one that can accomodate two children as their first child will only be 15 mths when the 2nd arrives!!!


Hopefully by Friday I will know if I got it!! Best part is that it will save us almost $500 with all the extras they have!!

The Past Week

Hello readers...if there are any of you other then Beckie :)...here is an update of what has transpired over the past week.

Tuesday, March 10 (16 weeks 5 days) - I went to my doctor for my monthly check up. I have gained only 2lbs which I was happy about...and babies heart beat was between 155-162 bpm so depending what wives tales you believe it is either a boy or girl (fancy that ;))

That evening we celebrated Jeff's Uncle Stewy and his Nan's birthday's and after consuming way way to much pizza I started to feel more baby movements which have continued off and on for most of the week!!!!

Baby seems to like or not like (not sure just know it moves) when I eat lots, sit at my desk in the same position for too long and when Daddy talks to baby by yelling at my belly button....it is too cute!

Then this weekend my borther, Trevor and his wife, Beckie and the kids came out for a visit which was nice since I have not seem them since September (I think) when we drove out to Medicine Hat to celebrate Sam's 1st Birthday. Both the boys have really grown up lots...although I think maybe Sam's only word is "granpa, granpa, granpa" too cute but he is definitely a grandpa's boy and he does say more words then that.

Onto today...17 weeks 4 days - I had a client come in who is ohh so sweet. She is a retired L&D Nurse and once she found out that I was expecting she promptly asked my age and month when we conceived. So I told her 27 and November (11) which she added to come to 38....which according to her means I am having a GIRL because it is an Even Number...hmmm come on April 6th I just want to know!!!!!

I find it funny how when people find out your expecting each and everyone has their opinion on what your having and usually their decision comes from one of these old wives tales which are of course not proven correct except that is by fluke of course :)

**So does the above work on anyone else...I tested it on Sam and Marilyn and it works for both of them so please feel free to share your answers cause now I am curious**

Ok well I better get back to work...but Mondays just seem soooo long.....

90% Sure I Definately felt baby move!!!!

Today I am 16 weeks and 1 day pregnant and I am almost positive I felt baby move!!

It was 5:33 p.m.(yes I know that time as I looked at the clock to see if Jeff was on supper break so I could call him) while i was in line waiting for the car wash. I felt a little bubble...then another way right away and I said, "baby is that you?" and it happened another 4 times.

The reason I am almost certain this time is that it was in the exact same spot and I did not have to pass gas after meaning it was not a gas bubble!!!!!! I know I know likely too much information and I should have warned you but too late cause you already read it :)

I hope it starts happening more regularly as I have been very anxious to start feeling any movement....again I know I know those that already have babies will tell me that I will soon enough be wishing against wanting baby to move so much when I get the foot to rib jabs and hands digging down where they shouldn't be!

Anyways its supper time and I am starving...surprise surprise I know...lol.
