Now we'll see how that stacks up to the REAL outcome to be announced later tonight!

The word of the day is . . .

SPREAD EAGLE! Okay, it's two words but you would not believe the amount of time I've spent praying today that my kid is not the shy type.

These last two hours are going to kill me! I just want to get to the doc's office NOW and find out!! :) That's not too much to ask! Right? (remember, rule number 3: never argue with a pregnant woman).

We find out soon!

I am getting very antsy now! Only two more days until we find out whether we're having an Owen or an Emily! Scott, my Nana, my cousin, my sister in law (and apparently my sister as well), think we're having a boy. For some reason, over the past couple of weeks, I've been leaning more towards a girl. What the heck, in two days we'll know and all will be well. :)

I called the Dr.' s office where we'll be having the ultrasound on Wednesday because the initial paperwork we received said that if we wanted to bring a videotape, they'd put our ultrasound on video for us. When I called, my question was "Just how big of a dork will I look like if I bring in a videotape?" The lady at the doc's office laughed so hard I thought she was going to fall out of her chair. At least I was able to give someone a chuckle that day! :) She said not to worry about looking silly and bring in a tape anyhow. So Friday I went and bought a tape at Walgreen's. I'm assuming that since VHS is going the way of BETA tapes, that's the reason why I couldn't find much of a selection. I wound up buying a Sony 8 hour tape. Scott just shook his head at me after that. I'm sure he thought "EIGHT HOURS?? What are we filming here? The delivery?" However, he has become a smart daddy to be and he keeps his mouth shut. :) Oh! I bought him a book this weekend. Here it is:

How funny is that??? :)

Since the best laid plans of mice and men never seem to work out, we've also changed our baby bedding again. lol!

For Emily: A set called Felicity which I think is just adorable. Here are the patterns in the set.

For Owen: Poor thing, It's still a toss up because his pirates are gone (unless I want to shell out BIG bucks on eBay for them). But here are some contenders. (okay, so there's only one contender listed but it's cute, huh?)

This is OFFICIALLY the longest post I've had so far! Hope you enjoyed it! If not, I don't want to hear about it. :P

We are moved!

Before we move onto our main topic, I just realized how many titles I've ended with an exclamation point. I apologize to you punctuation buffs but sometimes I'm just excitable! lol Did it again.

Anyhow, we are all moved in. My parents and my sister along with her hubby, my grandparents and a couple of cousins were such a tremendous help. I never thought we'd have as much done in just two days as we were able to complete. Our bedroom is totally set up (and all my furniture finally fits), my kitchen is in order (except that we have no food yet) and most of the house feels "done." My sister is a serious task master but it was good to have someone directing traffic because I was worn out on Saturday and Scott needs some direction at times so she kept us on our toes and helped us get a TON of things accomplished. I've even done three loads of laundry already! No more letting dirty laundry pile up in the hampers. :)

There is just one thing . . . that empty bedroom at the back of the house just waiting for baby furniture. I cannot wait to start putting things in there but I can't do that until I know for sure what we're having. It's so hard to wait though. We were at a play last night and there was a woman in the row behind us who was 7 months pregnant. I was talking to her and she said that she and her husband have opted not to find out what they're having. I just don't think I could do that! I am so excited to find out what we're having. I know it sounds silly but I'm already going to be praying that this baby will just open those legs wide so we can find out! No "I THINK it's a . . ." for me. I need to KNOW.
