31 Weeks Pregnant

I had another doctor's appointment today and he said I would deliver at Anaheim Regional and we can go anytime to fill out paperwork and take a tour. They only offer them on Sundays so I called today to go on Feb 12th. I am also getting another ultrasound this week or next.

More House Construction

It has been pretty crazy around the house lately. Brian's parents decided to get their popcorn ceiling removed so here is a picture of our room a few days ago. It was completly covered in plastic for 3 or 4 days so we could not get to any of our stuff. Now the plastic is gone but the house is so dusty. They have not done the downstairs yet so I haven't cleaned the dust because it would just get dirty again. It is hard to be home all day with the dust and dirtyness all around me because I just feel such a strong urge to clean it up so it will be nice when our baby comes but it would be useless to clean.

I want to take a picture of what I look like now but most of our clothes are dirty so I haven't been able to show you guys what I look like. I could take one but I have been wearing large t-shirts and sweats so it would not show much.

Carseat Pad

I took the pink flannel fabric that has animals all over it that mom gave me and made a quilted pad to go under our carseat to protect the regular seat a little from getting deep creases in it. I like the pink with the purple binding. :) I am also getting some practice putting the carseat in the car.

Pack n Play

We got a pack-n-play from craigslist today. I really like it because it is very lightweight, folds pretty small and I think it would work well for camping too. The shade comes off so you can have no shade, half shade, or completly covered which would be nice for when used outside. It has a zipper door on the front so you can use it as a play area if you want them to go in or out but the zipper does lock so they stay inside too.

I am still not sure if we are going to use this or the crib when the baby is really little. I am debating whether to make a hexagon shaped mattress for it out of foam because there is not a lot of padding built in. It fits very nicely in the middle of our room. I like it a lot and it is really portable.

Onesie Dress

I got some long sleeved onesies at my baby shower so I decided to turn one of them into a dress. It was pretty easy and I like it a lot.

Stroller

We got a stroller from craigslist today for $30. I am so excited. It is the one that is made to go with the carseat we have so it snaps in great. Our carseat is grey so the color looks nice. We are just so happy that we could get one for such a nice price.

23 Weeks Pregnant

Here is me at 23 weeks pregnant. About 3 weeks ago I was able to start feeling the baby moving around. It is so fun to experience. Brian likes a lot to feel my stomach when she is moving, it makes him so happy. It has been a bit harder to sleep at night but not that bad; it seems like Brian in his sleep always wants to hug me or push me into a position that is not comfortable. I am so hungry all the time now. I can't eat a lot at once so that makes me want to keep eating food all day long.

All the Christmas decorations are up and Brian & I have all our presents under the tree. The tree looks like it is so full of presents but it is just from Brian and I; I wrapped all of Brian's separately so it looks like a lot. Today Brian's parents and I are putting up the lights on the house and plants. I really like the garland they put over the garage, it makes it look nice during the day. We have our present for Emily & Neil all wrapped and ready to give to them so we are so excited to come visit and see them open it.

I scheduled to get our Christmas picture taken on the 19th by a lady in our ward. She needs to put a portfolio together so she is taking pictures for free. I think it will just be nice to have a good looking picture of us because we don't have very many pictures with Brian and I.
