24 weeks

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
We are finally back home after a 9 day trip to OC. It was great seeing all of our family and friends!

Today was my 24 week appointment. I'm up another pound for a total of 11. Still cruising and enjoying my increased energy level. Jeremy gave me a fabulous diaper bag, a comfy body pillow (for my achey back), and amazing Venetian glass wine tumblers (for post-April) for Christmas. Very practical and appreciated gifts :)

We got our new car today- a 2010 Ford Edge which we LOVE! We said good-bye to our trusty Mini Cooper and now have a "family car" with ample room for Jer, Hazel, baby and me.

Also, we've begun to clear out the guest room to transform it into a nursery.
We sold our pull-out couch today and will be painting and adding a chair rail in the next week. We've also ordered our glider and are ready to pull the trigger on the crib and dresser/changing table! That will feel so good to have it all ordered!

As I said before, our boy name is SET! We are waiting to tell until baby is born.
We've narrowed down the girl names (from the list I posted in November) to Scarlett, Hallie, and Gemma. The middle name is set for Isabel. Now we are going to wait to choose until the baby is born. For some reason, we can't commit to a girl name. Maybe that means it's a boy?!

Tonight we are off to shop for a new couch as we are gifting our old living room set to my cousin and her fiance. Time to make room in the living room for our desk and baby stuff so we are downsizing....wish us luck!
