7 Months Down ... 2 Months To Go!

Today I was reading an article at Parents.com and a message flashed that said "There are 61 days left in your pregnancy". This made me really happy but also REALLY anxious. There is still so much to do!

I was also reminded that human pregnancy is really closer to ten months than nine, so it's no wonder it feels like eternity. Regardless, it's a relatively short time to create a tiny miracle baby. I still have a hard time believing Chloe was manufactured inside my belly.

In other news, the baby formerly known as Spook is currently being referred to as Lucy. Lucy Jameson seems to be kicking her way into our hearts. The more people hate it, the more we love it. I know I am overly sensitive in my pregnant state but seriously, what is wrong with people? When you ask someone what name they have chosen for their baby, is it really your right to tell them how horrible you think the name is? It's not your baby. It is VERY rude.

Anyway, Lucy should weigh about 5 lbs now. My cold seems to have finally dissipated and the unpredictable vomiting is less frequent. Things seem to be right on schedule. I'll post an update next week after my doctor appointment. As for those of you who have requested an updated photo, here you go:
Our main goal right now is finding a place to live. I am really anxious to have Nick move down here. Things seem better when he's around. And I am really excited to put together a small nursery. We want little LuLu to have a peaceful, happy place to come home to. It is a lot to think about in a short period of time!

My sweet sister Mindy has helped me start a registry online. And I am IN LOVE with these legwarmers I found at the mall:


Yes, of course there is a matching headband!

Little girls are too fun to shop for! I don't know if Nick knows what is in store for him ...

That's all for today! xxoo
