29-30 June, 2014: Definitely feeling the baby really wiggling and moving around in there for the first time!! I had Joe put his ear up to my tummy to listen, who said it just sounded like a whole bunch of bubbles (hehe!). At 18 weeks (28 June- 4 July), the baby is big enough to hold in the palm of my hand (6").

| This cradle was given to us by a neighbor when we lived in Cheyenne, WY. I sanded, and then stained it a dark color to match other furniture in the house. |

| Staining wood for kitten shelves/perches in baby's room. We want Sophia and Finnegan to be able to view the new baby from a safe distance, as well as make them feel like they are still part of the family. AND... Siberian cats LOVE climbing! |

| Carpeted & stained shelves. Sophia loves them already! |

| Now we just need to hang them! |
YOU ARE PREGNANT??!!??!!? And you have a blog?? (I guess I knew that second question at some point, since apparently I added you to my blog list that I never check.) Congratulations!! I am SO HAPPY for you and Joe!! You look adorable, and I'm so excited for you to find out if it's a boy or girl!! I'm expecting too, and I'll hit 15 weeks on Wednesday, so our babies are pretty close in age! Congratulations again- SO EXCITED for you guys! :) Love you lots.
ReplyDeleteYes :-) Thank you! We decided we wouldn't announce it publicly (Facebook) until we find out the sex.
ReplyDeleteYay! We'll have friend babies! Congratulations to you both as well!! Lots of love to you too!
