Not so much Daily....

Josh warned me that when I changed the name of our blog to "daily" that I would then be obligated to update daily.....well.....I guess I got cursed because since I changed the name I have been attacked by a cold/allergies. I have been battling it for days now and it just won't go away....it has gotten better but it is still hard to sleep....I cough ALL the time....and I still have painful head congestion! I have taken some medicine approved by my OB....but I don't like to take too much....not only b/c of the baby but also b/c I don't like medicine in the first place...just ask Josh...even before I was pregnant he would have to force me to take medicine! Now that I have started to feel a little better....poor Josh is now feeling sick and he has to take finals all this week! Poor guy! He unlike me though can and doesn't mind taking medicine.

So I guess what I am trying to say is sorry for being a slacker and not living up to the new blog name. I promise I will do better.   For now I will leave you with a couple pictures of our babies.....can you tell who favors who....

Ollie follows me around like CRAZY....and constantly wants to be pet....but this is how we usually find him...curled up behind my head...usually touching me with his head and paw or just his paw!
Izzy on the other hand is OBSESSED with Josh.....she is practically glued to him....she even knows the sound of his car and will walk to the front door and wait for him to walk in....its pretty funny...so if I am home I always know he is home before he gets to the door!  She loves to sit in his lap while he is working on homework or just playing around on the computer!

A thoughtful gift.....

After a long day of work and a good workout at water aerobics tonight I came home to a present....and not to mention my sweet husband starting dinner.....I always think it is so exciting to get a little something when you aren't expecting it.....

Of course I opened it right up.....and it was a sweet little gift from my lil bro's (lil Josh) sweet girl friend Kristen! I haven't had a chance to thank her via the phone yet...but thought it was too sweet not to post pictures of!

Kristen must really know me because I have ALWAYS loved frogs!  This is a cute little bath mitt!

She must also be able to read my mind b/c everytime we go to the store I keep telling Josh that I want some pink/girly pacifier holders and he is always like "you don't NEED those right now"....Thanks to Kristen I have 2 and they are personalized for our sweet baby girl!

Thank you Kristen.....hopefully I get to talk with you tonight to thank you!  If you want you can check out her beautiful senior pictures here: The Evans 

Start Guessing.....

I have posted a link on the blog and instructions at the top under the baby ticker....good luck!  I will be sure to keep everyone updated and we will see how big or small she actually is and if she is going to make mommy happy and come early or my mom happy and come on time or late!

Not the best of pictures...but pictures.....

I finally got the pictures uploaded.....hope you enjoy!

This first picture is of the cutest little outfit that we got today from some sweet friends of ours back in Connecticut(Thank you Valerie and Alan)

This is just an outfit that I got on clearance at Gymboree today....b/c I am obsessed with ducks ( and lambs)....
And on to the Nursery....Josh was too busy playing with the camera.....

This is a picture of the the shelves and cubes that we have in her room to hold all her stuff :) since we don't have much closet or space period....on top is all of her stuffed animals....
This is a view of the crib area.....
This is a picture of the bow holder that I made her while I was on bed rest.......
This is a view of the changing area....a bit busy right now....I'm debating what to do/move around....the large shadow box on the left will display her take home outfit....and the wording on the wall above the changer is her name in yellow and then through the bottom of the name, in red it says Thank Heaven for Little Girls.....It shows up really good...just not in a picture
This is the glider sitting area.....the table is one we had and I'm looking for a yellow cover to go on it instead of the white.....will post a pic when I get that done.....
And lastly.....and unwillingly.....a picture of myself......I am already starting to swell and have officially taken off my engagement ring and put it away....still wearing the wedding band....but I have a feeling that will be coming off in the next week or so.....
