A Mini Baby Update

I guess I should start off by saying that we are having a little baby girl. Her name is Paisley Eve. She still wont be here for another 4 months but this little girl is spoiled. She has some awesome Grandmas, Grandpas, Aunts and Uncles, Great Grandmas and Great Aunts, friends, and my clients that have only just begun to spoil her. I have started to feel her kick and move around in there. Josh got to feel her for the first time a few weeks ago too. That was exciting for me because I love when she is dancing around in there and he actually gets to be a part of it. I have also started to be a little uncomfortable when sitting or standing for a while. It just takes some getting used to I think. Poor Josh says having a preggo wife just prepares you for a baby... "you need to make sure they are fed, napped, and content" I love him. He has been so great through all of this. I couldn't ask for a better husband right now. We are currently 22 weeks along. Only 18 more to go!!! Yes I am counting down. It is not that I am completely fed up with being pregnant but it is just that I am super excited to see her. I am picturing her to look just like Josh so we shall see. We have already got her room painted and got all of her furniture almost ready to go into the room. All of her bedding is here also and I can't wait to get that in the crib and see how it looks. This weekend we are planning on registering and we are looking forward to that. It is always fun to shop around for her. My shower will be at the end of next month which sounds a little early but by then I will already be 30 weeks!!! I just can't wait to see all her cute clothes and all her fun stuff she will get. Here are some of the ultrasound pictures we have got and some belly pictures...

Renovations

A lot has been going on around here this month. So much that we have had barely any weekends to relax. That is okay by me though. It had made this whole pregnancy thing go by a little faster. We started the last weekend in February by putting up a wall in the loft. The next weekend we did manage to skip away to Disneyland for a day but then when we got back we picked up right where we left off. My mother in law and I started painting the nursery. It took us about 2 and 1/2 days to finish all the painting including the new part of the hallway. That weekend our new carpet was installed. It smelled brand new and made our house look completely different. Josh keeps saying that he wishes we would have put the wall up and put the carpet in a long time ago. It looks like a totally different house and makes us feel as if we just bought a brand new house!! Right after the carpet was installed, we got everything back in its place but oh how the dust lingers. The cleaning has just died down. I was at war with the constant dust and for a while I was definitely losing haha. I am glad that the construction is over inside the house now but in the garage her furniture is in progress. I have been sanding it down and will be painting it light gray. I can't wait to see the finished product and get her room really put together. Here are some pictures of the renovation...

Steak and Shake

A few weeks ago, Josh and I went with our friend Ryan and Sabrina to try out Steak and Shake. It is a new hamburger joint in the South Point. It is from back east where it is really popular. We had tried going once but not realizing how extreme the line is to get in we had to leave. However this time we knew what we were getting in to. An hour wait in the longest restaurant line ever!!! The food was actually pretty good and very cheap. Ryan got a Chocolate Banana milkshake that came side by side. It was very cool looking and he said it tasted just as good. I am not sure that we would wait in that long of a line again to go there but I would definitely go back when the wait dies down.

Christmas Present Time!!

The first week in January we celebrated Christmas by attending our Christmas presents :) I got Josh tickets to the UNLV/BYU game and he got me tickets to the Lion King at Mandalay Bay.

UNLV GAME

The game was good the first half and we just lost it in the second. It is always fun to get to go though. Especially to eat the concession hot dogs haha. (maybe that is just the preggo woman talking) We ended up losing by quite a bit but thats ok it was still fun! The Thomas & Mack was packed and apparently it was the highest in ticket sales on a weekday game since one of Tarkanians last games.

                                                                           
LION KING

 I absolutely LOVED Lion King. It was awesome. The costumes were put together so well and the singers had great voices. We were on an aisle seat so we got to enjoy most of the costumes up close and personal as they came in from the back of the hall. I am so glad that I was able to see it before it wasn't playing there anymore. I highly recommend it!!

Just Call Us Mommy and Daddy!!

Yes it is official. Josh and I are going to be having a baby! I am 12 weeks and 4 days along. We had our first ultrasound this past Tuesday. The Dr. told us that he was 80% sure that it was a girl! Both of us loved getting to see you dance around in there. I think both of us are so in love already and we still have 6 months or so until we meet her :) We are beyond excited and look forward to everything headed our way!!

Welcome 2011

We spent New Years Eve with my family and had a great time playing games, eating, and just visiting. We watched the fireworks from the balcony at midnight and then took a deep breath and a big smile for 2011 and what it has to bring us!! Here is our first picture of 2011...
