Over the Moon...

SWL and I are so very happy to announce that the "nugget" can now be called a HE! Friday's appointment went so great. Pretty much as soon as I hit the table for the ultrasound the nurse let us know we were expecting a Baby Boy! All of the measurements looked great and we are actually measuring 3 days ahead. This early in the game though, I'm not sure that means a whole lot...we'll see. My due date is still December 16th. We were told our little man is a very active baby, this I already knew but it was fun to hear it confirmed and know for sure all those bumps and flutters really are our baby!

SWL and I had planned to do our first shopping for our baby after this appointment, so of course we headed to Target to find some cuteness. A few outfits, a baby book and a toy quickly filled our basket. It is amazing all the things you can buy for a baby...

SWL and I (really more just me) decided early on that the one thing we were going to keep a secret until the baby arrived was the name. I should have known it would never happen. My husband is a very...whats the word, determined individual when it comes to getting his way reasoning with you. After a great effort on my part to withstand his persistence, I finally decided to leave it up to fate. I told him we could rock, paper, scissors for the decision on whether we would share the name early or old out until the baby's arrival. If SWL won, we could spill the beans - if I won, we would keep it near and dear to our hearts until the big day. After an intense match of rock, paper, scissors (best 2 out of 3) in the middle of a baby isle in Target...I lost. So, without further ado...here a few snapshots of our little man ~*Oliver William*~! :-)

Thanks for reading and sharing in our excitement. I can't wait to share my nursery projects as they come along and I start making progress. First up - think buttons! :-)

Until next time...
