Just for fun...

A while back I showed you some mood boards of the color choices we were going with in our house. Well, we haven't gotten anywhere on re-doing our bedrooms upstairs yet... but this morning I decided to make a really rough digital sketch of what our bedroom will kinda look like once we are finished. Keep in mind, this is a SUPER rough sketch. :o) (Can you tell I was bored this morning!)

Here is the room the day we moved in... the original owners left the bed, curtains and bedspread behind. We kept the bed because we want to re-finish it.

Here is the room "after".... the bed will become black and the walls will be a blue-grey color. We already have the white curtains and the brown bedspread. All the trim and doors will be sanded down and painted white. The brown things on top of the dresser are Ikea boxes for extra storage.

Ultrasound Pics

So, like I mentioned in our last post, we had our ultrasound today! We didn't get to see much, but everything looked good from what we saw. This little munchkin crossed it's legs the whole time and wouldn't let us see the gender... so we get to have another surprise!

We won't find out any of the diagnostic stuff until next week sometime at our doc. appointment, but we're still believing that all is well with this munchkin. We didn't get the best pic's this time either, which was kinda disappointing, but it's all good.

Enjoy!

BABY'S HEAD AND SPINE
BABY'S FACE

BABY'S FOOT AND LEG
(to be honest, I have trouble seeing this one... so don't feel bad if you don't see it either! :o)

Ultrasound Today!

We have our ultrasound today and I am so excited to see our 2nd little one again! Eeek!
I'll be posting pics either later today or tomorrow.
If they can tell us what the sex of this baby is, that's awesome... if not we can wait. :o) We both kinda like the surprise element of it all.

Stay tuned for pics coming soon!

Random Stuff...

Since I have a wonderful week off from editing photo's, I thought I would spend more time this week blogging... however, I don't have much to blog about. lol! So, this may be boring to some of you, but i'm blogging about random stuff today.

We have an ultrasound on Wednesday, and I am SOOO excited to see our little 'sprout' again. :o) We aren't sure whether we will find out the sex or not, but we have 2 days to decide. We kept it a surprise with Adelyn, and that was really fun... however this time I think I am leaning more towards finding out. We will see what happens I guess... maybe baby won't even co-operate. :o) I can't believe we are 19.5 weeks already! It is going by pretty quickly. I can only feel baby moving once or twice a day, so I'm praying that will increase soon. Adelyn was moving a whole lot more at this point in pregnancy... but maybe this little one is just lazy. :o)

I've started decorating for Christmas and am hoping to put the tree up soon... maybe even today! Shaun thinks that it is ridiculously early, but my theory is the earlier you do it, the longer it lasts. I will post some pictures soon of all the decorations.

Speaking of Christmas decorations, I was seriously bummed out when we went to Wal-mart to buy some new decorations. They have tons of gorgeous stuff this year, however I really wanted a nice nativity set to put on our mantel and there was only 2 dinky ones to choose from. Lame. Half the store is full of Christmas decor, and yet it is all Santa Claus and snowmen.... nothing to do with Jesus' birth which is the real reason for this wonderful season. Sigh.

18 Weeks!

Today we are 18 weeks pregnant! Yay! I can't believe how fast this pregnancy is going lately. This little munchkin is starting to wiggle more often, it is so cool to feel a precious little person dancing around in there again! It is starting to feel more and more real!!!


Here's some info on were "sprout" is at now:
Your baby is approximately 6 inches/ 14.2 centimetres long from crown to rump and she weighs about 7 ounces/ 190 grams. Her chest moves up and down to mimic breathing but she's not taking in air, only amniotic fluid.

A mid-pregnancy ultrasound scan is often done sometime in the second trimester (usually between 18 and 22 weeks) to assess fetal growth and development, screen for certain birth defects, check the placenta and umbilical cord and determine whether the gestational age is accurate. During this scan, you might see your baby kick, flex, reach, roll, or even suck her thumb. Bring your partner along, and whether or not he's able to accompany you, make sure you ask for printouts of the baby in various poses.
