lots of kicking!

The past few night baby girl has been making lots of moves in my belly, but last night was insane. I thought I could feel her little fist punch me! I am still startled every time she moves, it is an amazing but also super weird feeling! Kind of like a little alien is moving around in there!
In other exciting news my friend Juli FINALLY had her baby, a girl, Quinn Caroline. I am so happy for her and her husband John and can't wait to meet this little cutie. She was something like 11 days late so her arrival was much anticpated!
Other than that, things are great. We are getting tons of awesome clothes for the baby and we are going to paint the room next month. Time is going pretty fast, only a few more weeks left in my 2nd trimester, craziness! As usual here are some pics, we had gorgeous weather this past weekend, and I even got a little tan, it felt awesome to get some color in my skin!

and here is a photo of my shy kitty Savannah, how cute is she!?!

21 Weeks!

I am more than halfway there, woo hoo! We have been sooooo busy the past 2 weekends getting ready for baby girl scicutella. We cleaned out the entire room that will be the nursery and that is a big relief. We also are basically done registering for all our baby gear AND we ordered our awesome furniture this weekend. I am so excited because it is going to look awesome. We thought we wanted one set and then when we walked in the store we decided on a completely different, and way more feminine one. Now we just have to paint but we are going to wait till the weather is warmer to start that.

Here are some weekly belly pics:

A few weeks ago, we went to see Liz, Ryan and their cutie pie Mya. Here are a few pics I took when we were there... I wish we lived closer so we could see each other more often :(

 

And of course here are a few of Sadie, I love taking pics of her. Look how shiny her coat is, love her!

 

IT'S A GIRL!!!

OMG we are so thrilled. We went to our appointment last Tuesday and got to see the baby for about an hour. Most importantly, she looks great. Everything is healthy and looks perfect so far. I am so lucky to have a healthy baby :)
So of course we went shopping and bought the cutest stuff. We also started planning the nursery. The colors are going to be pink, black and white with a damask pattern. I looked and looked for the perfect bedding but didn't find the one I wanted. So I went on etsy.com, which is an awesome website where people offer tons of handmade items, and I ordered the bedding I wanted in the colors I wanted and even got matching valances :) Here is a peak of what the color scheme looks like:

 

We are going to paint the walls a light pink and white with a stripe of black. We have to figure out which color we want on the top. It will be similar to these pics:

More belly pics to come this weekend.... Now is time for the name game. I think we made a lot of progress since finding out it is definitely a girl. BUT we will be keeping the name a secret for the most part. I want to meet her before I officially name her :)
Only 19 more weeks!!!
