I finally got to buy something!

So yesterday Chandler broke down and let me finally buy something for the baby! Okay, so I have been buying material for blankets for weeks now, but I don't consider that getting to buy stuff! We went and bought the stroller and the carseat! I haven't gotten any pictures of it up yet because my camera battery is dead, but I will get it charged and get some pictures tonight. Chandler has been very admiment about not buying things too early, but we found the EXACT stuff that I wanted and he really liked it to so I convinced him to go get it with me! :) We had a great time last night. Went shopping, went to Pepperbelly's for dinner (my absolute FAVORITE food of all time) and then came home and watched 'The Strangers'. Seriously, if you want a movie that is more of a 'terror' film, rent this one because it's AWESOME! It's not really gory, just scary!

Oh, and something else that I forgot to mention. Chandler and I went to the Dr.'s on the 15th and finally got to hear the heartbeat! It was really fast and the Dr. Judy said that if he had to guess what the baby was off of the heartbeat, he would say girl! We have our next appointment on Novemeber 19 and we will schedule the ultrasound then. So hopefully we will know what this baby is before Thanksgiving! He also put my due date back to April 21. That's another thing that we are going to find out for sure of at the ultrasound. I have moved from the 9th to the 10th to the 21st back to the 10th back to the 21st. So I guess we're in for 2 suprises!!

Well, that's all for us! Like I said, I'll hopefully have pictures of our super cute new travel system up by tonight! And hopefully there won't be a cat in it! (eye rolls)

It's the most wonderful time of the year....

So this morning I woke up and I don't honestly think that I've ever been quite that disappointed. The sun was shining and that just put me in a bad mood. I have been hearing on the t.v. that there is suppose to be a storm front moving in and it is going to bring snow. I've thought that it was going to snow for the past 2 days, so each morning that I have woke up, I have been VERY much upset. Well, the weather didn't disappoint this afternoon. At about 5:00, the sky clouded up and to my great suprise, it started to snow. :)

I just had to put up a post of the first day that it snows! I AM SO HAPPY! This is definitely MY favorite time of year! I'm so glad that the days of 100 degree weather has since past and now is a time for coats, hot chocolate, and my favorite thing of all, SNOW! I even wrote on the back window of my car to commemorate this special occasion. ;) I had only been at the grocery store for about 30 minutes and this was how much snow had fallen in that short amount of time on my car!

I was so excited! I even took this picture of me out my front door with the snow falling in the background!

This is a picture of our front yard. I couldn't even see down the street it was snowing so hard! It was great! So even after waking up this morning disappointed, the day turned out very well! Tonight Chandler wants to take his jeep out to see how his new tires do in the mud, so we will see how that goes! Hopefully tomorrow I don't have pictures of us trying to get the jeep unstuck!!

Correction

Just had to make a correction to my last post. I said that the due date was April 21, but the date has been changed to April 10. It was originally the 10th but the ultrasound dated me at the 21st, so I assumed we would be going off of that date. The doctor confirmed that we would be going off the previous one so that is great! I'm almost 14 weeks instead of just being at 11 1/2! Yay! That might not seem like a lot to you, but it is to me!

Life Change....

So we are expecting a pretty big change in our life. We are going to have a baby! We are very excited, but a little apprehensive too. We miscarried in March of this year, so the past couple of months have been a little scary for us, but we had an ultrasound yesterday and we got to see the baby. It is healthy and measuring 10 1/2 weeks with a heart rate of 142 beats per minute. We are due on April 21 so we will have a spring baby! So much fun!

Random Summer Stuff

I just wanted to post some pictures that I have taken over the last little while. I decided that I better put some on since I haven't posted any since July! These are just some random things that we have been doing over the summer....

Chandler's Jeep by Accord Lakes. I thought that it looked pretty neat with the storm clouds in the background.

Me above Sufco mine. The wind was blowing pretty good if you can't tell by looking at my hair!

Chandler by the new Barrett's truck. He and his dad are pretty proud of it.

Brinley cheering at the 24th of July pararde in Redmond.

My cute new hair! :)

Our flowers did so well this year! I don't know what Chandler did with them this year, but they are out of control! Last year in this same spot we couldn't get ANYTHING to grow! I'm so proud! ;)
