A glimpse of baby Adah's room....

We are not even close to being done with Adah's room but I wanted to post some pictures of what we have done so far.....the walls are bare....we are waiting on the wall art wording that will go on the wall behind the crib...it should be in sometime next week.....we really wanted to try and get the big items first and then worry with the little things......

                        

- This is a picture of half of the room....the crib is an expresso finish
- the curtains like before are made by my Aunt Kathy......
- Josh picked out the rug...but it really looks cute(pictures don't do it justice)
- the glider/ottoman & the little lamb blanket are my fav(thanks mom & dad)
- the lamb on the floor by the crib was given to Adah by my parents
- the teddy bear was a gift to me from Josh forever ago...
- the doll in the crib belonged to my Granny (great grandmother)

                                                 

Thank you to my grandma and papa for the crib bedding....we love it!!!!

The other half of the room is not pictured yet....it has the side table next to the rocker, the dresser/changer combo that is piled with cloths and other things, and the shelving unit that we got for extra storage space....that side of the room doesn't have the furniture in their proper place because we are waiting on help for Josh to carry down the TV and Entertainment center that we had in that room before it became baby room....so as soon as Mr. Eric Frett gets here(our friends Christie and Eric from Connecticut are coming to visit in 2 weeks) the boys will move the furniture around!  I will be sure to post more pictures of the room as we get things more together.  

Hope everyone has a great super bowl weekend!  We are going to be busy with water aerobics, soccer games, and enjoying our heat wave again.....gotta love California in the winter!

The long awaited and dreaded pregnancy photo....

Here I am at 24 weeks.......huge I know....I wanted to crop off my head in the photo but Josh wouldn't let me.....oh well....! Oh and you all can thank Josh because he made me post a picture....

Enjoy :)

Little Peanuts name......

Well....we still have not decided on a middle name for our little girl but decided to go ahead and let you know her first name. I have always been one for old names....and names that are not popular.....so one night while Josh and I were reading the bible we came across the name Adah.....I was like oh...thats kinda cute....Josh wasn't too into it....but this was before we knew that we were having a girl...and before we were pregnant. So after a long time of talking about names.....Josh finally was like...you know I really like the name Adah....so once we found out that we were expecting a little girl we knew exactly what we wanted to name her. When we decided to name her Adah and told my parents and grandparents....and ended finding out that my grandma was born in Ada, Oklahoma.....and that on my grandfathers side I had an aunt Adah...but she spelled it Ada.....we like the spelling Adah because that is how it is spelled in the bible......we also really fell in love with the meaning of the name Adah: Beautiful, ornament, Adornment....We have gotten a lot questions of where in the bible Adah is found...it is in Genesis and Adah is the name of the wives of Lamech and Esau. Another cool fact we found out was the Adah is the second female name mentioned in the bible...the first of course being Eve.

As soon as we decide on the middle name I will be sure to post and give you all the information on her middle name as well!

I know I have promised pictures....hopefully I will get Josh to take some today and post them.

Sunday song of the week......

Sorry only one song now...It gets too hard to remember all the songs we sing when the baby continues to take my brain.....:) This is one of my favorites and I LOVE when we sing it on Sunday mornings! Enjoy!

(Val- Sorry that I posted on Monday instead of Sunday...please forgive me!)
