Thanks Mom!!

Thank you Mom for doing such an amazing job on the bedding!!  She busted out the crib bumper pads and most of the bedskirt in the last couple of days and so far it is looking great!!

You now have permission to move on to your other fun projects!!

Fabric

Last weekend my mom and I went on a search for fabric to go with our vintage cowboy fabric we had ordered online.  We drove up to Dripping Springs and tried out Cowgirls & Lace with no luck.  We then went over to Valli & Kim (www.valliandkim.com) and fell in love.  They had so much cute fabric and if we were having a girl I would have had a very hard time picking from all of the girly fabrics!!

We ended up just getting some solid fabrics that matched our vintage cowboy fabric and some cow print!!  I love the cow print and can't wait to use it for some accessories!!

Here's some pics of Mom's belly at 26 weeks!!  Definitely starting to look and feel pregnant!!

First Step

We made the first step towards making a decision on the nursery.. we purchased some fabric online!!

The price kept miraculously decreasing.. so we decided to pounce on it before it was out of stock.

Here's a sneak peak...

It's called retro cowboy and I think it is going to be very cute!!  Now, on to deciding what to put with it!!

Nursery ideas

Thanks to my mom's friend, Susan, for finding and sending a picture of a nursery which is very close to the idea I had in my head.  At first, I was calling this a "texas" theme.  But I think rustic is probably a better description.  Now, if we can just find some fabric!!

It's a boy!!

We had our ultrasound today and found out we're having a boy!  He is perfect and growing into a big boy (I can't imagine where he gets that from)!!  He was a little larger than what they would have expected for 19 weeks, but we're sticking to May 28th as the due date.

Now, we just have to pick a boy's name!!  Right now, the front runner is Cace Patrick.

And here's a picture of Mom's pooch (also her new nickname) at 19 weeks!!

Baby's first Christmas presents!!

A piggy bank from T Pa and T Ma!! It even came with a few coins inside!!

Books!

An ugly tu outfit from my Uncle Tony!! I'll be sure and wear this when I'm sick so I don't mess up anything important.... except that the sight of it might make me more sick!
