Building the Nursery Nook

YAY! We started putting the baby's nursery together this weekend. Grandma and Auntie Lorie hooked our little one up!

The crib came in about 20 pieces so we had a fun time putting it together. I was doing OK until I got to the drawer and then I had to call in Michael to figure it out. Of course, it took him like 2 seconds to do so!

Thanks Grandma and Aunt Lorie!!

Baby Shower

Tara (aka Tizzle), Chrissy (aka C-Dawg) & Carla (aka Sha-Carla)

These 3 lovely ladies threw me a fun and fabulous baby shower. That cake in front of Chrissy is a 4 layer ice cream cake she made from scratch!! It had a mocha, mint chip, rocky road and strawberry ice cream layers!! Amazing...

We had a blast laughing, playing "name my baby" and the "poopy diaper game" and opening all the cute gifts. We also got $100 in gift card to Babies R Us, which Michael and I spent this weekend on tons of baby gear. Can't thanks these girls enough for being wonderful hosts!

Our BIG Bean

I think our little bean is growing into a big bean. We had a dr. appointment today and a quick ultrasound (sorry no new pics -- they weren't very clear). Based on the doc's measurements our baby is approx. 5-6lbs at this point. Yikes! 4 more weeks to go...

The doc said everything looks good. She also said his size is normal even though 5-6 lbs seems really big to me.  He is already in the head down position and will probably remain this way until he decides it's time. 

The baby isn't the only one growing. Michael got on the scale and he's packed on 8lbs this month!! Is that possible?? It was the same scale they weighed me on so it has to be right, right? And, he thought he had lost weight this month. Ha!
