Happy parents-to-be!

Our Saturday afternoon self-portrait! This was just yesterday. It was a great day outside and we enjoyed by Ted taking a bike ride and Walden and I taking a walk. We were out for an hour and a half...i think we did 5 miles. My legs are sore today - but i have found that the more exercise i do, the better I feel. It makes the moods swings lessen and just makes me feel better all around! It was a gorgeous morning.

Last weekend Ted and I picked out our first little baby outfit at Babies R Us. That place can be a bit over whelming...so we opted for looking at clothes, buggies and furniture. There is so much to learn...sometimes i just don't even know where to start. i am reading a lot though. I went to the library yesterday and checked out a bunch of books on pregnancy. I must say, the one i am liking so far is Pregnancy for Dummies. It is straight and to the point and doesn't try to scare you half to death about labor and everything that happens afterwards. Lord know, i have enough to think about. So many of the books that are out try to scare the b-jesus out of you...yeah, like that's what a pregnant woman wants to know....eewwwww. stop it.

Here's a pic of the baby outfit.

The little sleeves fold over to mittens to protect his nails from scratching his face. it's a sleepbag so it's just one piece. It comes with a hat and little booties. it's going to be winter...either that little one isn't going out in the cold, or he will be bundled up beyond belief!! like a little eskimo!

It was a lot of fun to pick out an outfit. it's really hard to keep from buying more things. I can't wait to find out the sex...only three more months or so....i'm counting the days!!

With everything going on in our lives right now, it's so hard to stay focused at work! i just want to have fun! And in a month or so there will be so much to do at the new house....we'll have our hands busy from then...ON! house, baby....i just got here from Colorado! What an interesting time it's been !

Gotta love it!! I'm so happy - i've never been so happy in all my life!!!

I'm going to try to keep on top of these. there are times when i don't feel like much is going on with the baby, so i'm not sure how frequent these will be in the beginning...

Some of you know my belly...and in the center pic you can tell that it isn't as flat as it normally is. :-) i bought my first pair of gauchos yesterday because i am already growing out of most of my jeans. good times!! bring it on!
