My first big BABY BOY purchase! :)

I have been keeping my eye on a bedding set for a couple months now! Last night I got the itch to finally order it! :)


It is really important to me that our little one knows all about his Grandpa Bill. I want to honor my Dad by decorating the nursery in a Fire Fighter theme. :) Brandon currently has Dad's actual fire helmet and we also have an awesome picture of my Dad fighting a huge fire in which you can see B. Gammie on the back of his jacket. My plan is to hang both of these items on one of the walls. :) The bedding I found is very simple but super cute...I want our son to know that his Grandpa Bill was a true hero and that he saved many lives throughout his years as a fire fighter...


Here is the bedding that I ordered! I am so excited to start decorating our son's room!!!

The BIG ultrasound is THIS Wednesday 9/3 at 2:30pm!

Our BIG ultrasound is this Wednesday at 2:30pm! I remember setting the appointment 5 weeks ago feeling like September 3rd was FOREVER away! I can't believe it is almost here! :) I am so excited to find out (for sure) what we are having...I still think it's a boy but lately Scott has been thinking it's a girl! I am also really excited to see our little one again on the ultrasound screen...seeing him/her move around inside is the most amazing thing in the entire world!

I will upate everyone as soon as I can on Wednesday! :)

Oh...and please say a prayer that he/she doesn't have their legs crossed...mama is going to be really upset if he/she is being too shy to show us the "goods"! :)

Who will I look like??? :)

I thought it would be fun for everyone to see what Scotty and I looked like as little ones. :) So...here ya go! I wonder who our little one will look like? :)

Scott:

Playing Hide and Seek!

Baby Reetz has been quite the pain this week when it comes to finding his/her heartbeat on the doppler! I can usually find it within a minute or two but the past few days it takes Scotty and I at least five minutes to track it down! As soon as we start to hear it, baby Reetz moves to another side so that we can't hear it again! I think we have a little "turkey" in there!

I am so excited for our ultrasound next week! I am still thinking that we have a little boy growing inside of me but Scott has changed his mind and he now thinks we will find out it's a girl! Who knows...I hope our little one cooperates next week so we can find out what we are having! :)
