In regards to the Baby poll...

Poor Sweet Pea is gonna have a complex if she/he turns out to be a girl. Most of our family members are thinking SP is a boy. A majority of people at my work think baby will be a boy, as well. There are a few at the school that believe SP is definitely a girl though. And even though many believe Mitch and I are aware of baby's gender, I can reiterate that we have no idea. I have my own feelings of whether baby is a girl or boy, but I'm not telling. Mitch seems to have a pretty good idea, too. We shall see if our instinct are right come April. However, I just found it funny how many people think SP is a boy and how the poll seems to be going in that direction.
I wonder who voted:)

Computer Crisis

Notice the back-up of posts. Sadly, right after Xmas are darn computer got a virus. We were unable to keep the Internet up for more then a few minutes at a time. Which caused issues when trying to post on our blog and we were unable to put our holiday photos up for fear of losing them. So, although the past few posts were written earlier, they are only coming now. We are thrilled to have the Internet back. However, not checking your email and other daily computer routines was a bit freeing. Of course, while searching for a Mexican restaurant and directions for the pregnant lady last weekend would have been a lot more simple had we had the Internet. Remember when you used the yellow pages and an actual map to do that:)

More Holiday Gifts

The nursery furniture arrived over the holiday break, which turned out to be a great Xmas gift. The only problem was we still did not have any idea what kind of chair we wanted for the room. Neither of us are big fans of the gliders. I just do not think we would use it anywhere else as the the baby gets older. So, while out and about over the weekend we headed to La-Z-Boy. We figure as long as we are spending the money we might as well get something we can use in another room later down the line. We found a great deal on a great recliner/rocker that is due to arrive in less then a week. Bonus-it will make a great Football Sunday chair for Mitch when it gets moved to the basement.

Happy New Year!!!


Although, we are sad to see 2008 and all it's blessings go, we are so looking forward to 2009! (For one obvious reason, of course). In just a few months we will meet Sweet Pea! New Year's Eve marked "100 days until baby arrives." We celebrated with an evening out on New Year's Day and Mitch recieved a surprise from baby. Sweet Pea honored the event by getting Dad an adorable alligator rattle, alligator jumpsuit, and a card with a little message from baby.

Happy New Year!
and
Happy 100 Days and Counting!!!

26 Weeks

Since we hit our 100 day marker until baby arrives and 26 weeks yesterday, I felt a picture was necessary. Of course, I always think a picture is necessary to the dismay of many around me. I will be the annoying old grandma with the ancient camera snapping away at anything and everything in 30 years. So, here are a few artsy photos we took on the "100 Day Countdown"
