So Tim and are proud owners of baby EQUIPMENT. YAY! you just wonder you know babies are so small what do they really need? Well I'll be the first to tell you, babies need TONS and TONS of STUFF. An arsenal really.... okay okay maybe the parents need a ton of stuff to make baby raising easier or more fun, and this our first piece! we went to Sears to look at what selection they had when it came to car seat and the strollers they can be hooked to, and we found the cutest one I've ever seen. I have been really adimate about not getting anything gender biased because I'd like to use it for the next few children. And we've looked pretty much everywhere and everything we thought we liked another member of our family would show up with their kid in it. I know it's trivial, but I feel I've always been one to do things my own way. (P.S. Tim is only smiling like that because I told him to smile because he had on his "cool" face before and he just looked mad, so I figured that wasn't the right emotion to have, so I told him to smile like he was happy about it and that's what I got.)(smack hand to the forehead here)
Anyway, look how awesomely cute it is!!! It's gender neutral, but still could be considered for a girl and the basket on bottom is huge!!! and the canopy thing that goes over the top as a sun shade is huge!!! and there's a bar that clicks into the stroller so the carseat will lock into it and that's awesome!! and pretty much I just love it. It went together in a second and I can steer it with one hand and did I mention the basket on the bottom being HUGE?
It's done and it looks really good. I have to say is not that bad when it comes to wielding a paintbrush, no matter how much crap I give him.:) The pictures turned out looking like two totally different colors, but to clear any confusion it's a yellow but not too yellow with white trim. Next we're going to get some wall vinyls of some cute birds to put on the walls.
So one day i decided I wanted to paint the room that is going to be our baby room.
It took a lot of primer and many man hours on Tim's part, (there is photographic evidence of me helping, see?) but we finally got the room to a point we could paint it. when we first moved in the room that was designated was a periwinkle color of sorts. The picture really doesn't show how dark the paint actually was. And every time a layer of primer dried, the blue purple or "Bloctopus" colored paint as Tim so lovingly dubbed it, soaked it up and showed through. I wasn't really sure as to what color I wanted to paint it but it had to be bright because the room is on the back of the house, it doesn't get that much sun anyway, you know yadda, yadda, yadda. So it had to be something that wouldn't absorb every ounce of light that actually did make it into the room. Finally Tim and I decided that a nice light yellow would be a good change and for a baby's room totally neutral right?

So a little while ago we had a baby shower for Mercedes and her soon to be here baby Landon. There we a LOT of people there and it was nice to feel support for her. Everything went nicely and pretty much everyone got a prize for the games we played. Hopefully Landon doesn't grow out of all his clothes so fast!!!!:)
