We started demo on our up-stairs. While I was gone shopping and what not Rob, his dad, Travis (my sister Ashley's boyfirend), Joe (my moms' fiance), Serge (our future brother in-law), and Russel (Serges brother in-law) all started to literally tear apart our up-stairs.
We are re-doing the drywall, flooring, electrical, closets, ceiling (changing to a cathedral), adding built-in's and adding a full bathroom, well I guess that is just everything upstairs. Good thing my Rob is so handy, we well Rob has his work cut out for him, but I know he can do it and we started early so he has plenty of time to get it done, plus we have family and friends that are all offering to help.
I was so shocked when I got home the whole upstairs is down to the studs! But it's gonna be great, we have lots of ideas on how to make the space look even better. I am so excited we are going to have the cutest nursery. The one bad thing is that we forgot to take before pics but we are defenitly going to be taking pics from here on out.

Maternity Clothes ... already? - 8/06/08 - 9w4d
Ok so I don't need them yet but Robs mom and I drove to BWI to pick up Susan (his sister) so we stopped by Arundel Mills on the way home and they have a Motherhood Outlet which has stuff from all three of their stores. I got a few pair of pants and a couple sweaters all super cute and has anyone ever told you how comfortable maternity clothes are. Ok well "maternity clothes are very comfy", stretch in all the right places. I got pretty basic stuff so that I can mix in some of my regular tops and such and make them last as long as possible. Oh and I did have a major find (ok well it was Diane's, my MIL) a pair of Pea in a Pod pants originally $157 marked down to $94 then 90% off so they were a whopping $9 bucks! (who the hell pays $157 for maternity pants that will fit for oh 5 months?) Anyway I got some clothes for when I get my baby bump!

So that's our baby! - 8/1/08 - 8w5d
Oh we are just so excited! His (well we had been referring to the baby as "it" but we didn't really like that so for now it's a he, Rob really thinks it's a boy) little head is on the left and then you can kinda see his little leg on the far right it's very faint. At the Dr's appt we got to hear his heartbeat too it was so amazing to hear that little flutter and to think that it, I mean he, is really inside me. It just amazes me how much has already formed in only 8weeks. Oh speaking of that my "official" due date is now March 8th.
