The first of many...

So this is my first post in my shiny new blog. I decided that since I've already got pregnancy brain I should really put my thoughts down somewhere so that I can look back and reflect. For those of you that read this... I apologize now if I don't post much... blame it on that pregnancy brain, or you can blame it on having a toddler. Either way... I'll give it a shot.


We found out we are pregnant! We actually found out on the June 22. But we decided to wait a bit to share the good news with everyone. Well here it is July 6th and pretty much anyone that we wanted to know... knows. LOL So much for waiting.


I'm 5 1/2 weeks along. And I'm already exhausted. I could seriously sleep all day. But I think that only partly has to do with the pregnancy. Lizzy's teething her two year old molars right now, so she hasn't napped in 3 days and has been fairly grumpy for the last few days not to mention she's been getting up around 7 in the morning. Which is WAY too early for me. So anyway, I'm pooped.


I haven't had too much morning sickness yet. One rather nasty day where I spent about 4 hours in the bathroom sick to my stomach. But since then it's just been random moments of dizziness.


Anyway. I've picked out our double stroller. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2646209&cp=2255983.2256189.2256200&parentPage=family

I love that you can turn it so many ways. The babies can face each other, face away from each other, both face forward, both face backwards... lol it's awesome. AND it's lightweight compared to the heavy graco's.

Annnyway. Other than that, and we'll probably pick out some new bedding for the baby. Lizzy's sea life bedding is all worn out and nasty it's been washed sooo many times. So we figured since we don't have to buy many new things for this one - bedding is ok. Every new baby deserves to come home to something new and soft. :)

So that's pretty much it for now. We won't be able to find out the sex for another 3 months. So that makes shopping hard. I'm pretty set if we have another girl, but if he's a boy I've got alot of shopping to do. LOL

I did purchase my first new baby things the other day. I wanted to do some shopping for Krystyna's new baby so I picked up some PJ's for Krystyna's baby, our new baby, Laura's baby, and Lizzy. I went PJ crazy. Seriously. I bought 6 pairs for Lizzy. LOL One pair for our new baby, very coed. They're orange with little green palm trees. Cuteness. I also bought one 4 oz Doc Browns baby bottle. (I only saved one of Lizzy's the rest were nasty.) And some yellow and green washclothes.

So that was my big baby purchase. I had fun. I can't believe I still have to wait 7 1/2 months to meet this little person! And yet I'm glad it's a ways off. We still have to build our addition onto the house this fall. And part of the addition is the new nusery. So I'm glad we have some time to work on all that. So that's that. I'll write more soon.
