Goodbye.

This is my bag from when I was a cheerleader in 8th grade. It's the most perfect sized bag for average length trips. I am finally getting rid of it because Aunt Julie got me a new perfect sized bag for Christmas. Just in time because it's starting to fall apart. It's been a good 8 years. But it's time for me to stop carrying my cheap tacky cheer bag everywhere I go.

Update.

Hi.

We had an wonderful time in Memphis for the Christmas holiday. Thanks everybody for our gifts. Also our next baby doctor appointment is on the 13th. I'll be 16 weeks by then, yay. I crave grilled cheese all the time. And I'm starting to get a little bump. We're going to go crib shopping this weekend so I'm really excited about that. Not excited that apparently the cribs with the drop down are now considered  to be "the devil". I'm short, I need the drop down. And I read an article on the internet saying that you should never put a blanket in the crib with the baby because they will suffocate themselves. And all I could think of the whole times haven't these people thought of a crocheted blanket--no baby could suffocate themselves with a blanket with holes in it! But seeing as though I've never been a parent before, who knows if I'll end up being one of those crazy parents that will keep my child in a sterile room his whole life. Yay--Sarah, the future mother of a bubble boy. Haha. And we still have made no progress on boy names. It's easy to think of names when you aren't pregnant. Now it's like "why in the hell did I ever consider naming a child that!?" Oh well, we'll have a name before Baby Uno gets here. Yeah, that the name for the baby while its in my tummy. For some reason we really liked the way Baby Dos sounded so we had to name this baby Uno so we could get to Dos the next time..because we're weird. And people are going to let us name future citizens of the world..Haha well, that's all. I hope everything is happy with everyone. Love and miss y'all.

Hi.

Hello all. I just wanted to share this with the family. This is Mitch playing his video game..and yes that is a towel around his neck as if he just finished a few rounds of boxing. He keeps a towel because his hands get sweaty. And because he's a dork. :)

:)

Instead of wrapping present I decided to finally hang stuff on the wall. I probably should have planned it a little better, but my boredom got the best of me. But this is the first apartment I've actually tried to decorate. Of course I still have to put pictures in the frames--all the generic pretty people are still in there. Hah. Now all I need to do is make a trip to IKEA to get a two book shelves. I also have to make my throw pillows for the couches. There really isn't an actual color scheme or anything. Just randomness. But I think it all flows. At least it looks like me. :) I'll put pictures of the rest of the place when I get it done.

Haha..

This is our dog--watching The Godfather Part III. He went right up to the the TV as soon the music started and has been there for about 20 minutes now. :)

Hello baby.

Say hello to baby! These are the first ultrasound pictures. So here's the first look at your new grandbaby, great grandbaby, nephew/niece, or whatnot. We heard the heart beat and the little "it" wiggled around and waved at us. I cried and Mitch kept nudging me and saying "did you see that, he waved! And Sarah, do you hear that? It's his heart!" As if I wasn't already paying attention. Haha. He was so cute in there. But I'm 12 weeks today. So I'm pretty much past all the nausea and yuckiness. Just hanging out waiting to get fat and waddle around. Our due date is July 1st. I'm glad I won't be having the baby in all this snow! We have about 5 inches on the ground right now and it's still snowing! Crazy. I don't think I could make it up here without Mitch! He makes sure my car is cleaned off, a path cleared for me to get in it, and it's warmed up when I ready to go somewhere. It's wonderful. He's amazing. So besides the fact that it's always bitterly cold and the fact that I poot all the time everything is going just fine in OH! We can't wait to come home for Christmas and see everyone. We love you guys and miss ya!
