A lot of new updates!

Sorry It has been a while since the last update, but we had a lot of new things happen in the past few weeks. Tim and I have been on vacation these last few days so we have been doing a lot of work on the house to get ready for the baby. A couple of weeks ago we had ordered our baby furniture from USA Baby and to our surprise it was ready to be delivered. That did not leave us much time to clear out the nursery and get it painted. We had decided on the color already, we went with a green color on the walls so that if it is boy we can do blue and green and if it is a girl we can do purple, pink, and green. I guess I'm not used to the color, it is a bright green. I said it looks like "key lime pie green" and Tim says it will be "simulating"for the baby. I guess this is a time for change for me so I need to step out of my comfort zone, but I think it will look very cute when we get the bedding in the room. We have it picked out already, it just depends on the sex of the baby, but we will keep that a secret until we buy it and post the pictures. I had a doctor appointment last week and it went good. They got my weight(only gained 3 pounds for far) and the baby's heart rate was 152 bpm. Only 19 more days till the big appointment and then Tim better be ready for the shopping to begin. Oh, not from me but his Mom. Grandma Joy can't wait to start....I know this has been hard for her not to buy anything yet. :) We also had some more excited news on Thursday night....Carrie, Tim's sister got engaged. We are very excited for her and can't wait to welcome Craig into the family. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Love,
Stef and Baby

I did some Halloween decorating outside. Here are a couple of pics Tim took.

Here is a nice picture of the new ceiling fan Tim put in the nursery and you can see the color of the walls.

Here is the baby's new furniture!!!

We will make the the changing table as well. Grandma Joy got the baby the cute monkey "piggy

bank" and started the college fund. Ok, so she did do a little shopping already.

We also plan on putting the glider in the corner in front of the lamp.

Lastly, a new belly picture. This one is at 18 weeks and I do have on my first pair of maternity pants on....even though my old pants still fit, I feel more pregnant in these. :)
