You must be sick of seeing the ugly pregnant cave woman picture by now eh? Well... I still sort of feel like that, although so far this week has been A LOT better than last. My doctor's office gave me a bunch of prenatal pill samples that I've been circulating through and I think certain ones make me feel a certain way- most often worse than I already feel. I'm so tired today though- I wish more than anything I had a day off in the middle of the week to rest and rejuvenate. I could really use it today! Because when I get tired like this, I really don't feel or function well.
We went to Babies R Us this weekend and found a bed set that we really like. I figured it works for both a boy or a girl, and I think it's adorable! We'll probably paint the room a light yellow- pretty understated. We didn't buy it the set yet, we did buy the light switch plate though just for inspiration on color. It made me really happy and excited to see all the things we get to buy for this little one! I have to remember not to get too anxious to get stuff just yet though... but there's no hurt in looking! We found a stroller/car seat that we really like that we'll probably get too. We're still looking around at cribs since we have plenty of time- so we probably wont buy the bed set until then. I did buy some onesies today... there were three neutral colored ones for $1.48 on clearance at Target. I couldn't resist! And my mom recommended that I start buying diapers a little at a time because they get pricey. So I bought some newborn diapers my friend suggested. It's exciting!
Well, I've been writing this all day... I guess I can post it now. We're hoping to go to Florida to see our friends Jill and Brent and their two boys for Labor Day weekend! My only debate is either flying (which isn't too bad price wise) or renting a car and driving 7-8 hours... I think I choose the first!

It sounds like you are having lots of fun. Have you seen an ultra sound yet? ANd as for diapers...buy lots and lots...you can alway exchange diapers. With kk I didn't have to buy them for almost a year because we had a diaper shower.

That's awesome that things are going so well. We are to the point now where we didn't even talk about things we need to buy until past the first trimester. No fun.

BUY DIAPERS, LOTS AND LOTS. (so I've heard. We haven't but maybe we should he he)

Whine away baby! It's your right of passage into motherhood. It's so fun to start looking for baby stuff! Can't wait to see the room when it's all done!

That crib set is really cute. And the stroller/ car seat is the same one (only newer) that we got when we were having Matthew. There a a test done on all car seat available last year. They were a little too strict if that is possible and had to do it over because of complaints but only three car seats passed and that one was one of them. Good choices. We are so excited for you.
