Packing, Moving and Registering

I'm so sorry to have neglected my blog lately.  Life has been so crazy lately.  We are in the midst of packing up our house. We will be completely moved by Tuesday which seems so soon! Although, we are definitley ready.

Our Pods are being delivered on Monday since we are putting everything in storage until we find our dream home. Since we can't get a firm time of when the Pods are delivering, the movers arrive on Tuesday, along with the cleaners.  Oh and at the same time the final walk thru is in the afternoon. What can I say, we like to do a lot at the same time.  As a result we aren't going anywhere for Thanksgiving. :-)

Although things are hectic I have to stop and think about how truly blessed I am to have so many wonderful people in my life. My Aunt has graciously offer to throw me a baby shower in Decemeber.  When it comes to registering I am completely clueless!  Thank God for Nicole and Melissa! They have taken over the registry and picked out the cutest, practical stuff ever! I feel like one of those rich girls that has a wedding planner.  Except I have a feeling that at 2AM no one thanks their wedding planner and I know I will be thanking my sister friends.

The next post will most likely be after the move and I hope to include pictures of the new rental place as well. :-)

    that is smart to have your shower early. i was around 35 wks at mine and was not so comfortable. i still inisisted on wearing heels and my feet were not very happy! you need to do a post on what "big" stuff you are registering for and if you can't decide between things your dedicated readers can help! also, i really want to see the bedding/room stuff you choose. i loved picking molly's stuff out, but it was pretty overwhelming. there are soooo many cute girl crib sets. good luck with the move and i cant wait to see the new place!

    Nicole is the queen of a registry. I know that everything is crazy right now, but it will be perfect when Lady Leon is here!

    Cant wait to see pictures. I will have to get your new address too! Who would of thought we would both sell our house right at the same time! I hope you find your dream house soon! Are you staying at home or going back to work? Just curious :)

    Super excited for you and your adventure. Lots of change at once is the way to go - too much going on to stop and have time to be nervous :)

That's a Real Baby!

Darren and I got to see our little baby this week! He/she is measuring 13 weeks and 1 day and everything looked healthy. This picture cracks me up because the baby looks like it's pouting because we woke it up.  We did though, the tech was pushing on my belly like I do when I'm trying to get into pair of jeans that are too small!  Baby Hawk wouldn't move! Enter the Kashi cereal bar.  I hadn't eaten in nearly 4 hours (the appointment was VERY long) so I ate my Kashi bar that I always keep in my purse for ultrasound emergencies. BOOM, baby Hawk was wiggling and sucking and even looked like he/she was sucking it's thumb! Yes, this is indeed my baby, I go nuts for food too! I do think the profile looks like Darren though. Darren makes this cute pouty face when he's being funny.  So, the mystery is solved, this is Darren's baby. Whew, we were wondering. I'm totally kidding people! This picture is sort of creepy to me but I must share my 3-D picture. I...

To Stella

I thought it would be fun to write a letter to you before I met you. We could read it together later and laugh about how clueless I was about you! Dear Stella, It's Christmas 2011 and I honestly haven't thought at all about the holiday this year.  All I can think about is March, when I get to meet you for the first time.  Your Dad and I went to the hospital this week to check out where you would be born! I thought for sure going to the hospital would make me anxious but instead it made me incredibly excited. What a gift it is to bring someone into the world and because of you I get to experience that.  You have no idea how much you were prayed for, wanted, hoped for, for so many years. I always knew I wanted to be a mother, even back in high school when I worked in a toy store and joked about getting my tubes tied. :-) But, when I found out about YOU I couldn't have been happier.  I remember standing in the bathroom completely convinced that I had willed ...

2012 Highlights

So I'm obviously abandoning my attempt to try to capture every Saturday in Stella's life. I now realize that's impossible. Plus, not everything in the world happens on a Saturday. It's the fun/sad/crazy moments that are the ones you want to remember right? (by sad I mean "my baby's growing up" sniff sniff)  And those usually happen on a random Tuesday or something. So I'm going to attempt in this last post of the year (and some of you may be saying "your only post this year", no I had like 7 okay...ha ha) to remember the BEST moments of my life in 2012. You may want to go pee, eat something and bring a drink back, this sucker's going to be long. Our House January 1st we moved into our house. I love our house. It is seriously a fairytale house and neighborhood where I want my babies to grow up. I have a nightmare once a month that involves us moving, I usually wake up very sad. Odd, yes. Apparently you know you're old when you...
