    34 weeks this week!  I had to go in for b/w this morning since I was exposed to Fifths Disease on a recent school visit.  I have to go back for retesting on Tuesday. 

    QOTW-BR:

    1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO. PIP if you would like. :)  DH and I just went to buy a bottle rack for drying bottles, as well as the headrest for newborns in the carseat and two mirrors for our cars.  (We had a gift card!)

    2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning?   Yes, we have a name picked out.  The first name will be after DH's father, who passed away when DH was 18.  His middle name will be after my grandfather, who I was very close to, and passed away a few years ago.

    QOTW-NBR:

    1. What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance?  We danced to "Feels Like Home".  Its a song from "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days", and it fits us perfectly.  <3

    2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood?  I wasn't allowed to watch much TV as a young child.  I did get to watch The Muppets, and I LOVED that!

  • Hi Ladies! Getting close!

    1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO. PIP if you would like. Nothing recently. I bought some nursing bras/tanks for myself, but that's the only shopping trip I've made since she's been born. The hospital has given us lots of blankets, hats and booties made by volunteers for preemies. No PIPs on hand, but they are cute!

    2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning? Corinne Avery. No special meaning. After she was born, that night, DH and I pretty much had an "Oh sh!t we need to come up with a name, fast" moment. We agreed that this was a name we could both live with (even though we each had our own top choices). And now, I can't imagine any other name on her.

    QOTW-NBR:

    1. What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance? Aerosmith-I don't wanna miss a thing

    2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood? Smurfs!

    And here's a PIP (or 2 or 3):

    image

    Her favorite sleeping position (we will need to break her of this habit before she comes home....stomach sleeping isn't going to fly then):

    image

    She HATES this position (and will kick out her legs and flail around):

  • QOTW-BR:1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO. PIP if you would like. :) I am making decorations for his room. I have some paper pom poms that will hang pretty high in the room and also a banner. These are both going to appear at my baby shower this saturday and then make their way into LO's room. Pics when I am done! 2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning?Tristan Michael W____DH is Irish/Scottish(and we really like the name anyways) and the middle name is given to every boy(that I know of) on DH's father's side because the first baby my grandma died a few days after birth. His name was Michael.  QOTW-NBR:1. What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance?"So She Dances" By Josh Groban (We totally butchered the waltz though...: ) 2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood?Land Before Time probably (Only the 1st one!) Hope everyone has a great week too!

    35/35 already!!!  And getting ready for my move to NJ, which is now pushed back a week.

    1. Most recent purchase:  We ordered the furniture- it's a natural wood colored "sleigh" crib, although it's not very much like a sleigh bed at all, and a matching dresser with a changing table that goes on top.  Can't wait to get it all set up in the new house.

    2. Names: we have a short list- for a girl either Elizabeth (my grandmother's name, she was AMAZING) or Aibhlin (it's Gaiilc so the B is pronounced like a V, and it means "longed for child"... enough said).  For a boy either Sullivan (my maiden name, and my grandmother always refers to her first husband (airforce piolet killed in a training accident) as "Sull"- I love it) or Calivn (for DH's grandfather).

    1. First dance: In Your Eyes, my BIL performed it live so it was really special

    2. Childhood TV show: The Wonder Years!!!  I still watch it when I find re-runs.

     ETA- Dambo- love the action shot of Corrinne, and the shades she wears in there- too cute!

    Congratulations on another week down, ladies!!!  And, Dama, I'm so happy that you're still hanging out with us on here...LOVE the Corinne updates!  :)  DH has brought home yet another sickness from one of his germmongers at school, so I've been fighting yuck for the past few days.  :(  Hopefully I'll feel better before my niece's 2nd birthday party this weekend! QOTW-BR:1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO. PIP if you would like. :)  We finally bought paint for the nursery last weekend!!!  I've started taping off the trim...can't wait to get some color on those walls!  :)2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning?   We're likely going to name her Sutton Genevieve (because we can't seem to agree on anything else, although we're holding off telling people for sure so we can still change our minds if anything else comes up).  No special meaning with Sutton, but Genevieve was my maternal great-grandmother's name, my mother's given middle name (which she changed to her confirmation name because she didn't like it!) & the name of my mother's stillborn little sister (which has extra significance to me because of losing our first LO).  QOTW-NBR:1. What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance?  At our wedding, our first dance was to "Annie's Song" by John Denver.  :)  2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood?  We could watch Star Wars (the original) over & over & over again...my sister, cousins & I had it memorized.  :)  There were a bunch of TV shows, mostly Saturday morning cartoons (like Dungeons & Dragons).  Have a wonderful week, ladies!!!

  • I had my 30 week appt, yesterday...all was well and my doc answered my mile long list of questions.  (I think she is PG btwn, tee hee hee).  I go back in two weeks for a growth ultrasound (thanks to those lovely PAPP-A blood screwy blood levels during my NT scan).

     

    QOTW-BR:

    1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO.

    I don't have a pic but yesterday I bought the toddler guard rail and the convertible bed rails that go with LO's crib.  I know it will be a long while before we need them, but BRU was having a 20% off sale and I had gift cards to cover the cost.  Now I don't need to worry about the crib being discontinued and not having all the pieces (that happened to our friends)

    2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning?

    Lillian Jane.  Lillian we both love and Jane is after DH's paternal grandmother who helped raise him subsequent to his parent's divorce when he was 5.

    QOTW-NBR:

     1. What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance?

    Making Memories of Us by Keith Urban

    2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood?

    I loved Fraggle Rock!

    QOTW-BR:1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO. PIP if you would like. :)Nothing exciting, just a 10 pack of white socks from Old Navy, then a sleeper and changing pad cover I found for cheap at TJ Maxx. Nothing PIP worthy. 2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning?Brynn Helen M___ We picked Brynn due to it's Irish roots - it's actually a welsh boys name, but I added an N to make it more feminine.

What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance?"Wrapped up in You" Garth Brooks 

    2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood?

  • QOTW-BR:1. What is the latest thing you made/bought for your LO. PIP if you would like. :)I bought an Aden + Anais sleep sack off of babysteals.com the other day. I also bought two outfits at Ross. I have to stop buying stuff. With all of our family and friends spoiling him, we are quickly running out of space to put things! 2. Have you decided on a name yet? Does it have a special meaning?Luca Alberto...Luca is just a name we both really liked (got it from an Italian soccer player because DH is a huge soccer fan) and we thought it went well with our last name. Alberto is the name of DH's grandpa who we love to death, and my great grandmother's name was Alberta, and I was very close to her when I was young.  QOTW-NBR:1. What song did you and DH dance to for your first dance?At Last by Etta James 2. What is one of your favorite movies or TV shows from your childhood?Hmmmm...that's tough. I loved every show on Nickelodeon just about, and of course Saved by the Bell, Family Matters, and Full House.
