starting to decorate...



We were given the crib from Jayme's very nice boss's family. It is so nice to not have to buy all these expensive items. I have loved "Classic Pooh" for a very long time, and we were fortunate to go to "Target" and see it was all clearanced price. I was excited and panicked at the some time. We were able to buy all the Pooh things we wanted at really good prices. As most of you know, we have a very strict budget, so we have been blessed when it come has come to buying these precious items that I have wanted for Baby Norah.

making the nursery




Here is Jayme working on the nursery....as you can see in the first pic. Jayme was pretending he was playing a flute. He loves to goof around in front of a camera. He worked really hard on this room and did a great job. It is almost done. I can't wait to get it all decorated, and then have our little baby in there soon.

Seven months



I look at these pictures, and can't believe how big I am getting. I just keep reminding myself that this is "normal". =) We are doing good. Only three more months to go. We registered this weekend at Babies R Us and Target. It was really fun and made it so much more realistic for us. At my last midwife appt. all was good. She continues to be a very active baby, and loves to use my poor bladder as a trampoline or a kicking bag.

Our last hurray...



Jayme and I went to Chicago this past weekend. We had a great time! It was our last little vacation before our baby girl comes, and changes our world. We love going to Chicago, this past trip we visited Millennium Park, went to the musical "WICKED"...it was Excellent! We did a little shopping of course and bought Norah her first little Chicago Cubs outfit, daddy's girl will be a Cubs fan. We loved walking around and just enjoying the sights of the city. We ended the trip going to the Museum of Science and Industry. It was really interesting. We love this city!!

Six months!



Hi everyone. We are doing good. This picture was taken at six months. She is growing strong and I am just growing. =) We love watching my belly at night jump around. She puts on a little show for us all the time. She is an active little girl. =)
