Welcome to my new blog! I couldn't think of a better way to share our new (first) pictures. We had our first ultrasound last week, and we found out we're having a girl! Our due date is April 21. :) Now we face the daunting task of buying for our first baby. I'd welcome any and all advice on what any of you found that you needed or loved to have as new mothers!
I've been feeling much better. The "morning sickness" still hasn't completely left, if ever at this point, but now I'm only sick every few days rather than everyday, which is a huge relief. I've got my appetite back in time for Thanksgiving. Yumm...
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend!
Carol, first, congrats on finding out it's a girl!!!! Second, yay, that you have a blog now!! Little girls are fantastic:) My advice for buying for baby is to do tons of research on everything and take the time to decide whether or not you really need something (babies outgrow everything, not just clothes, so fast!). It's so much fun! Glad you're starting to feel a little better, feeling sick constantly is no fun, but, like you said, at least you're feeling much better for Thanksgiving!! Hope you have a great holiday:)
ReplyDeleteHey Carol!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Those pictures are sooo sweet :) I can't wait to see how the rest of your pregnancy goes... I'm glad to hear that you can enjoy Thanksgiving with the best of us :)
Keep in Touch!

Carol and Andrew! Yay, a girl! That's so wonderful!!! We're very happy for you both. Your baby's first pictures are beautiful! I would highly recommend a baby swing and also a boppy pillow. I think they are both very essential. Happy Thanksgiving!!! Catherine, James, Jacob, & Justin ;)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Best of luck on all the shopping! Enjoy it. For the things we didn't need right away, I used the book Baby Bargains by Denise and Alan Fields. It has great advice on what brands to buy.

Congratulations again!! We are so excited for you. What gorgeous, clear ultrasound pictures!! I can't wait to meet her:) So glad you are feeling better (and you're right- perfect timing for holiday eating- lucky- I was getting sick right through Christmas last year;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving and say hi to Andrew for us:)
Love,

Yay! Congratulations on the news about your baby girl! How exciting! I love to buy girl things! And another yay for your blog; I can't wait to read your updates (but I'll admit that I'm not too good at keeping up with them thanks to Colten : > ) Thanks for sending the ultrasound pics - now we need a belly photo : >
ReplyDeleteAs for advice as to what you need, I could go on and on but a boppy pillow for sure! Remind me and I'll email you some of the things we found most useful or a waste. Miss you guys! And love the photo for your profile ;>
