Cravings

1. Popsicles. We found out that Wal-Mart always has them for $1.00... so I really wasn't getting as great of a deal as I thought I was when I discovered they were 10/$10 at Fry's. Hmph. OH. And, we bought two boxes over the weekend and they put the wrong popsicles in the box that normally have grape, orange and cherry!! They were like fruit punch or something like that... they weren't the same. I threw those out too. I was extremely bummed about this. Don't they know I'm craving GRAPE?! Damn Wal-Mart boxes.

2. FUNYUNS. Ahhh... So good. We bought two bags over the weekend. ;o)

3. Olive Garden's salad and breadsticks. Chad's burnt out on it, so we haven't been there for a while. Babe... what about this weekend? I have good intentions with eating the salad... but then I have to add on about 5 breadsticks and it defeats my good intentions. Oh well... Brynn's getting a few veggies anyway.

4. Grapes. That one just started tonight and we don't have any. I'll wait until the weekend, I don't want to go to the store. Sprouts has the best grapes. YUM.

5. Chocolate milk. It's been making my stomach upset but man, it tastes good.

6. Burger King's cheeseburgers. They aren't even that great but they always sound good at lunch.

That's it for now. Mostly it's just the Popsicles and Funyuns but everything is sounding good to me right now. I'm hungry. It's 10:35pm. This is crazy.

All sorts of baby stuff

This was a total Brynn-planning weekend.

Holy cow, registering can be complicated. Registering for the wedding was pretty easy but when it comes to registering for a baby, that's a different story. Chad was all excited to use the scanner-gun. ;o) We went to one place yesterday and registered... then we got home and I tried to look at everything online that we had scanned and only one thing showed a picture. That registry is getting deleted when I'm done with this.

1. Brynn's room. EVERYTHING that is out right now is for boys. We found all sorts of blue things that we liked but we didn't really see a whole lot of girly stuff, unless it's ALL PINK. We didn't want all pink, or really really girly... I'm not even really girly. There were lots of things in the "neutral" colors but since we're sure she's a girl, I didn't want the greens and yellows. Chad would have been ok with them... but I wanted something just a little more girly. We ended up finding a ladybug theme at Babies-R-Us that we're both pretty excited about.

2. Bottles and nipples. There are about 50,000 different kinds of each and who knows which kind she's really going to like... so it's kind of hard to buy those ahead of time.

3. Carseats and strollers. This one was easy, we found one of those combo's that we liked a couple weeks ago. Chad didn't have much of a choice, we were going Graco all the way since I worked at Rubbermaid. (They're sister-companies.) My only complaint is that it comes with a tan base but if you want an extra base, it's gray. Weird if you ask me. I'm checking into this a little more.

4. Diapers. Again, there are 50,000 different kinds of these too. Who knows what will really work but for now, we're going to go with Pampers... we have coupons for them.

5. Chad took a picture of me yesterday. So, for all of you who want to see prego Amanda (MOM), here you go!! I lost that one pound I gained. HA. Knock on wood that I keep this up!!

It's a..................

GIRL!!!

So, for the 99.9% of you that thought it was a girl... you were right!! Her name will be Brynn Maye West. Did you notice what her initials will be? We swear, we didn't plan that part. We think Beemer is a cute nickname though!! ;o)

Look... She's waving at you!! You can't really tell but she'll knealing too.





The pictures that we got today weren't the best but we have another ultrasound scheduled for March 22nd and then the 4-D one is scheduled for April 24th. Woo hoo!!

P.S. My belly isn't "cute" yet, that's why Chad and Brenda aren't allowed to take any pictures!! You'll see some eventually...

Boy or girl?

Hopefully we'll find out tomorrow!! Chad and I are 50/50... we don't have a clue of what it will be!!

We're 18 weeks today, the baby is now the size of a sweet potato!!

Sad day today

I had a great day yesterday and a not so great one today.

1. Today is Thursday, not Friday. Atleast it's almost Friday... that's a positive.

2. Condo is still on the market. We dropped the price to $136,900. Any buyers? Maybe I should buy another St Joseph statue or something. Geesh.

3. Grey's Anatomy. If you watch this show, you know what I'm talking about. I bawled. Yeah, I know I'm emotional because I'm pregnant but even if I wasn't pregnant, I would have cried. Oh, and if you aren't into this show... that's sad too because it's a good one.

It's also sad that I'm so addicted to this whole blogging thing... way to go Sam!!
