It's coming along.....

We had a great day of shopping!! Color palette is done! Just a few final decisions on dresser and wallpaper!

THIS IS SO FUN!!!!!! I've been waiting sooooo long to make my first nursery for my child!!!

Bebe Nursery

I am heading to Houston, TX today to visit my girlfriend Angie and finally meet her son, Royce! Cant wait! We plan to do some shopping for the nursery! I'm excited to see the furniture in person instead of online.

We have decided on a Vintage Paris theme nursery in honor of his first trip and baby moon!:) The colors will be soft baby blue, French grey, and off white. We snagged some cool prints to hang on the wall when we were in Paris. I just need to frame them.

I'm hoping to find a vintage carousel rocking horse for his room for a decent price then what I'm seeing online. Wish me luck! :)

Shopping!!!

I hit a great baby garage sale this morning in Carmel. I could have kept buying but I stopped myself! I left with three bags stuffed full of 0-9 months clothes. All in great shape and some of it has never worn! I spent $40 for all of it and I even got his first wet suit for the lake!!!




Then I stopped in Marshall's and found some great deals on Polo, Puma, and Calvin Klein clothes as well. The little clothes you get to buy the first year are the most fun. They are so small and cute!
It was a fun and successful day of shopping!:)

Mom

Don't be so sensitive!

Sun sensitive that is! So I have learned the hard way that when you are pregnant the hormones can heighten your sensitivity to the sun.

Yesterday my Sister and I went to the pool for a few hours while my nephews swam and I put on my normal sunblock which isn't much on my legs really because they never get tan. I put 15 SPF on my shoulders and chest and 45 SPF on my face. I think I was outside for 4 hours.

When I came in to get cleaned up I had no idea how burnt I had gotten. My chest, shoulders, belly and legs were fried!! That isn't normal for me. So I looked it up and sure enough your more sensitive to sunlight during pregnancy. I didn't even think to ask. Well now I know!

I've been slathering on the creams and oils. Hopefully the burning goes away tomorrow. :(

First Nursery item...

The hamper for the nursery showed up today!!! It's so cute! It's going to be so fun putting this nursery together!!

I am heading to Houston on Sunday to visit my girlfriend Angie and we are going shopping for the nursery!! First stop is Restoration Hardware Baby and Child and then a few boutiques in Houston. I'm excited!!!

We can't wait to show you all his room when it's done!!

Momma

I felt him move!!!!

This morning laying in bed, I reached over and put my hand on Timnah's belly and sure enough, I felt out little miracle move! It was so amazing! I can just imagine him in there, moving around and rubbing his little eyes and kicking his feet, probably wanting Mommy to get up and feed him.....it's really awesome.

Since finding out we are having a little boy, life's speed seems to have picked up even more. There's all of a sudden there is a lot to do! We have literally zero nursery done and that's quite a project that Mommy is spearheading full steam ahead. I thought she had alot of ideas for decorating this house.....you can't imagine for our little one's nursery. We have classes to schedule, strollers and pack and plays to research and buy, clothes to accumulate. (By the way--to our friends Andreza and Scott--thank you for all the adorable clothes! Especially the sunglasses!)

I am so happy that we are having a boy. I honestly was surprised when we cut the cake. As I laid down that knife, I thought I was going to see pink, but was shocked when blue showed up. We feel very blessed that so far that he and mommy are doing so well. It wouldn't matter if it was a girl, so long as she was healthy too. But there's obviously a part of me that's extra excited that a little Masariu Man is on the way. Now the seemingly impossible task of naming this little wonder is upon us. We have about 3-5 names that we really like and we are so funny about how we decide. We say them like he's introducing himself to an adult, like we are yelling for him in the house to come to dinner, like we are playing with him as a baby, like we are mad at him (we use the middle name there), like the announcer at the high school football game is saying his name after a 80 yard touchdown catch, like he's a man and introducing himself to clients.....it's just hilarious.

Thank you all for the love and support and all the well wishes to Timnah as she embarks on this new chapter in her life. We are so excited about her new role and our new family. Lots to do in the next few months--we'll keep ya posted!

Love,

Daddy

Stocking Up!!!

Today we received a big box of little boy clothes from our friends Andreza and Scott in Dallas, TX!!! They passed on tons of clothes, socks, coat, onesies, and more from their little guy!!!

We are so thankful!!! We can't wait to see baby boy rocking his new gear!!!:)

Thank you so much!!
