mom, benson and mrs. ward made it to the ultrasound. i havent had one since 3 months so it was fun to see the babe again. everything is perfect so far and i have gained 10 lbs which they said was great. we could have found out the gender but we have chosen to remain in the dark. it is annoying some people (cough *mallory* cough) but i think it will be such a fun surprise. mom and i celebrated after the ultrasound with a trip to the maternity store. some friends have mentioned that they dont like maternity clothes, but i love them! we went to a really nice lunch at bricktops with the girl i am sponsoring at Christ the King, Lisa. yall might remember how i went through a program to convert to Catholicism that involved lots of classes; well i am now volunteering as a sponsor. sunday was actually her confirmation!
on saturday we all went to pick out a crib set. my wonderful parents offered to buy our crib and changing table, which was a massive help! of course, i had a very difficult time picking out something that i liked. i basically wanted the exact crib that was my childhood crib but mrs ward has forbid that "doodles 2" be put in a drop side crib that is not up to safety standards! i like the style of the old fashioned cribs...which do not seem to be produced anymore! after 2 hours in the store (bless benson's heart) we finally found one!
i miss my mom so much...i tried to beg her to stay but of course she has to work. i dont know how i will do it once the babe comes. a girl needs her mom around constantly, not just once a month. i wish we lived much closer. so, sorry for such a long post...just had a lot going on for this tiring and long weekend!
crib... we chose the dresser without the hutchfancy!

ReplyDeleteI bet you had so much fun with your Mom and Mrs. Ward.
We must have been thinking alike, or I am post-pregnancy nesting, b/c I just went through all my clothes too and took a few large bags to Goodwill this afternoon.
Trying to get a bit more organized before the return to work this week...I even put outfits together...ha!
You put me to shame in the cleaning department though...house cleaning and I aren't friends, but I try :)
First off stop sending your clothes to goodwill, you have a sister in law that is in need of some clothes haha. LOVE the crib very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI hate that I'll be in Italy when little baby ward is born! Hope to get to see you soon, its been too long.
