These are pics from the work Matt and Norm did in the nursery on Saturday. A work in progress...

Tuesday, April 21

The results are in and team blue is the winner! Sawyer Matthew was VERY uncooperative during the ultrasound, but we finally got to see what we needed! We counted fingers, saw feet, measured thigh bones, and even saw a full bladder! At one point he was opening and closing his mouth and it looked like he was trying to tell us something! It was a lot of fun.
After, we went to Babies R Us and did some more registering...got a great deal on our big stroller! Then we headed over to the Mills for some serious BLUE shopping. Sawyer now has a few cute little outfits in his closet.
This past Saturday, Uncle Norm came over and helped Matt work on the nursery. They spent most of the day hanging white bead board. Now Matthew needs to work on the chair rail and trim. We want to get this finished before they call to deliver the furniture!

Our big appt. is this Tuesday at 11:30. Hopefully Sweetpea will cooperate and we will be able to tell if it is a he or a she! We (at least I know I am) are very excited to know the sex of our little one. After our appt. we plan to go to Babies R Us and add lot's of pink or blue things to our registry...check back for an update!

p.s. So far, Matthew has refused to discuss or look at baby names. He has wanted to wait till we know the sex, so that is another reason I am excited for Tuesday to come on and get here!

I had my 17 week appt. this afternoon and all went well...whew! Doc was able to find the baby's heartbeat with the doppler machine (which we had been unable to do at previous visits.) It was right around 160 beats per minute! What an awesome sound! As he was moving the doppler around trying to find the heartbeat I kept hearing these "whoosh" sounds and Doc said that is movement and was I feeling that? I could not believe how much sweetpea was moving around and that I could not feel a thing!

My blood pressure was good and my urnine test was fine as well. There wasn't any weight gain from the last appt. So it seems like things are really chugging along quite nicely. Our next appointment is April 21st and we will (hopefully) be finding out the gender. So you still have some time to vote on our poll. I will be sure to post that evening to let everyone know what we have found out. I told Matt we will head to Babies R Us after our appt. to add either pink or blue things to our registry. Won't that be fun?!?

Yesterday we measured the nursery and went to Lowe's to purchase the things we need to get the white beadboard on the walls. I am excited and I am expecting Treasure Rooms to call us here in the next couple of weeks to set up delivery for the furniture. Lot's to do...
