Baby's room... In progress



We have gotten the baby's room started. Brett unloaded all the furniture that was in the room and we now have everything in its place. We also have the baby's bedding already on the crib. We are waiting on everything else (the curtains, changing pad cover, etc.) to arrive next week. This is my favorite part! I love decorating his room. It makes everything seem that much more real.
We sat everything up in his room last Saturday night after Brett got home from work. Sunday I went looking for Brett and could not find him. I finally found him curled up in a ball in the baby's crib, lol. I asked what he was doing and he laughed saying he was "testing" his bed to make sure it would hold him. I assured him that if it could his 150 some odd lbs. than the baby would be perfectly fine, ha ha. I just wish I had a camera at that time. That would have been a great picture for the baby's book. :)

20 weeks

Its a boy! The little finger is pointing to "it".

Legs
Hiding his face.

Brett says he is showing his "guns".

Sweet Baby Boy!

Here are the 20 week photos of our baby boy. He weighs 13 ounces and seems a little shy by the photos. When I first saw him I thought he already looks like Brett. To my surprise everyone that sees them seems to agree. You decide...

It's A BOY!!!




Brett & I went to our doctors appointment on Friday to find out the sex of our little one and after 45 minutes of being stubborn he finally revealed his "diaper shot". I had a feeling from the very beginning that it was a little boy. Brett never really said what he thought but seconds before we walked back for the sonogram he said he thought it was a girl and that he had always thought it was a girl. When our nurse told us it was a boy my eyes filled up with tears and I couldn't help but look at Brett and say "I told you so" lol. We are thrilled and couldn't be happier!
After Brett work I used the rest of my day off to run some errands (and do a little shopping :). My mother in law works at Zales in the mall so I stopped in to show her the pictures. On her break, she and I walked down to Belk where she ended up buying TONS of little outfits. I couldn't help myself either. I ended up buying a couple of little onsies, 1 said "I love Daddy" and the other of course said "I love mommy". I ended going ahead and purchasing the bedding I had picked out for a little boy that night.
Yesterday Brett & I met my mom & stepdad along with my stepsister, brother in-law and niece at Babies R Us to "look" at baby furniture. We really didn't have any intentions of purchasing anything that day. We walked through and Brett showed me what he liked and what he didn't like. We picked out our pack-&-play, car seat, and stroller. Momma bought a bunch of little outfits, bibs, and an adorbale pair of little shoes.
We all went to the Baby Depot at Burlington Coat Factory and ended up picking out the baby furniture and putting it on layaway. We got soooo much done this weekend. His room will be the cutest. We decided to use Brett's camaro pics. and models in the baby's room since it will match the bedding. This made Brett really excited and I think it started his whole "Let's get it now" attitude toward everything which surprised me. I think just knowing the sex of the baby made everything seem real.
Here are pics. of the bedding and the furniture. I will have pics. of the baby up asap!
