Sweet Dreams




I've been dreaming up our little baby's room since we found out it was a boy. I find myself in love with simple prints; stripes, poke-a-dots, argyle. As I was showing them to Mike yesterday He shouts "They're all so METRO, my BOY will not sleep in that kind of bed! We are getting trucks or cars or superheros, sports even! I'm in charge of picking out the bedding now, you can't be trusted." Apparently Mike now cares about shopping for baby stuff. I've been asking him to shop with me for a month and he refuses, but he cares about the decorating? I don't get men. I'll be honest, I'm not that crazy about most of the "boy themed" crib sets, they all look so cheesy to me.

We love BLUE!!!!

Now that could mean a couple things:

1. We love BYU blue (wasn't sure I'd ever be saying this before Mike). They had a great game yesterday to kick of the college football season. We were able to enjoy it with many good friends and great snacks! Even delicious blue cupcakes by Karen.

2. The the best and more important reason we love Blue this week is because
WE ARE HAVING A BOY!!!!!
WA HOOOOOOOOO!!!! Tears of joy were shed upon finding out this wonderful news. We (especially my handsome hubby) are so very excited to find out about this little man growing in side me. He is healthy and perfect, except that he didn't want his mama to have a good profile picture at this ultrasound. He was hiding from the tech the whole time. He took the full hour scan for her to get the shots she needed. This was very much to my surprise as last time, at the 12 wk scan, she raved about how photogenic this little baby was posing for darling pictures. I hope that this is not going to be a trend, his daddy also Hates pictures.....Hence there are not many these days on the blog.

Its amazing how much I already love this little man and want everything to be perfect for his arrival. I've been trying to research all things baby: car seats, cribs, pack-n-plays, strollers... you name it. I find myself wanting someone to just tell me what I HAVE to HAVE because they loved theirs so much. So if you have any tips...you know where to find me, I'd love to hear suggestions on baby gear you may have.
