Michael and Jennifer Create a Family

Well, it has taken me 24 weeks to take a picture of my growing belly. I have meant to do it all along and it just never seemed to happen. Oh well, better late than never, right? Here he is at 24 weeks (I sure wish I had x-ray vision!)

1. Playing this game makes Paris so happy, and you can see it all over her face. Pure Joy!

2. I am just amazed by how smart she is every time we play. She looks in all of Daddy's hiding places until she finds him. It makes my heart swell how smart she is.

Enjoy!

(Please disregard the messy house:-)

We have chosen to go with a jungle/safari animal theme for the nursery. The walls in the nursery are light green, and I love animals, so I thought this would be a perfect fit. I bought the main bedding set already, and then registered for all of the coordinating accessories at Babies-R-Us. I have also found a few cute things at JC Penny, but their registry is not currently working. Hopefully, I will be able to create one there in the next few days. I am not going to register for clothes, because I think people are going to just get what they think is cute anyway, but I will register for the big items and the theme items. We have already purchased the crib and the changing table too. That is supposed to arrive by 10/15. I am VERY excited to receive the crib, so that I can really start to set things up and begin to make the room look like a nursery. There are only 4 months left until the little guy arrives, and that seems like such a short time to get everything ready (especially with the holidays between now and then).

Here is a picture of the nursery theme:

Grandma Lisa recently sent a handmade quilt for the baby. Here is baby's first quilt -

Thank you so much Grandma Lisa!!!
