Congrats girlsway and southern!!! I am so happy that both of you are rejoicing in this new life that you have created!
Southern--your attitude is amazing! I feel like a doofus over here because I have my moments when I am still pouting and stomping my feet that I didn't get "my" girl. Months ago we briefly considered a gender reveal party as well but I knew I'd be struggling if it turned out to be a boy and I didn't want to be so vulnerable in front of everyone. As I said, I am SO happy that you are excited and that you get to have a great party!

OK ladies, I am new to the DIY stuff, but I really enjoy it. I have been really unmotivated since getting pregnant and having all this cold gloomy weather here in Ohio. I decided to work on another project today and I must say it is really nice to be productive. A while back my husband and I bought our first home and it is quite a fixer upper and I have loved working on it. Everything that has been done on this house I have done myself because my husband is never home (except he did help me on the floors) anyway I just wanted to say that I am excited to start getting some energy back because I have a TON of projects left to do on this old house. What are some of your hobbies, that keep you sane during pregnancy?

Oh I started a blog a while back, mostly so family back home could see the progress on our house, if you want to check out my beginner DIY projects, you can find them at My Rags To Riches
Here is the project I am working on today, I got these two lime green chairs (you cant see color well in this pic but they are an awful lime green) I don't have money or time to reupholster these myself, so I am painting them with fabric paint. This is the pic after the first coat (the chair in the back is the "before" because I haven't painted it yet), I will probably need 2 more to get rid of all the lime green!photo (22) (1).JPG
Sorry for the long post, like I said, I am just happy to have found energy because I have been so down lately with the gloomy weather and morning sickness and exhaustion!!

This morning I fell on the kitchen floor had some really light spotting and got sent to the hospital cause I'm Rh- and I was having lots of cramps... I had an u/s and baby was fine and alive and I asked to peek between the legs the legs were close together but there were no obvious boy parts present.... Still not trusting that tho....

Congrats on your boy southern did the tech confirm it was a boy?

Congrats girlsway

Scary, I am so glad you and the baby are ok though! I have fallen down a flight of stairs with every single pregnancy because I have hip problems, I know how scary it can be to think the baby could be hurt! Sorry for the scare!

Yay to not seeing any obvious boy parts!

Is there a list anywhere with whos due when and what they are swaying for/having?

I was just looking for this the other day also! Is there any way we could maybe put it on the first page or somewhere easy to find?

I don't mind seeing a nub, it's just I feel weird asking about it because Im Worried she will figure out why I postponed the scan for so long. I was supposed to get the scan at 9 weeks but I made up excuses to postpone it until now. I'm afraid if I mention nub she will get mad at me.... Lol I don't like to ruffle feathers!! But I'm going to take my trusty pocket video camera a video tape it for DH since he can't be there!
On An extremely happy note, we booked my moms flight and she will be here on May 7th until a week or two after the baby is born!! I'm so excited to have my mommy here with us for 6 months!!

I felt the same way about asking for a nub shot! I know, at least where I live that not many health care professionals have even heard of the nub theory and I didnt feel like getting a snotty answer if I was to have asked! LOL Besides I am totally enjoying not having a clue! I hope they do let you record it for your DH...when I went in I asked if I could take a short video to show my girls and the tech wouldnt allow it! Said its against policy...so hopefully you have better luck then I do!

Wanting -- whew, glad you and baby are okay! And that's a pretty exciting/promising sneak peek you got there!

Thorz -- I am so impressed with your DIY prowess and ambition. I had no idea that you could paint fabric! I am looking for an upholstered bench/ottoman (with storage) for our master bedroom right now. We just finished re-painting it to a very light, creamy gray and now I need to choose curtain panels, artwork/pictures, some accessory furniture. This house is twice as big as the one we were in before and after 8 months, it's still a bit spartan-looking.

Ditto on the Ohio weather! I will be driving up to Cleveland this weekend to visit my friend and I hope the roads will be dry...Anyway, going to check out your blog now while the kiddos are sleeping/relaxing.
