Precious!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited that we get to look at such cute items as these!!! I just want to squeeze Ellie Jo's footsie's right now.

Baby Curtains

Here is a picture of the print for the curtains in Ellie's room. Soft pink, lavender, robins egg blue, greens. I am very excited to begin sewing them with my friend Jessica. I might even try to do this by myself using my room curtains as the example. I believe that I would just like a solid print for the baby bedding. So I better go fix that on the registry. =)

Lil Sunshine,Rain and Jesus.

Those are the 3 ingredients to making pretty flowers. This was I got to see when I went outside this morning. It made me so thrilled to see bright colors and sunshine. Spring is around the corner *fingers crossed*

Ellie Josephine Bono's Room

Right now her room has been used for storage and my sewing room. Over the past year I have bought 'items' that I thought one day would come in handy and I enjoyed looking at while sewing. The robins egg blue table I bought next door to Onyx, The Salem Mercantile. The picture frame and lamp came from TJMaxx.



The shelves Steve had up there since his roomate Erin lived here. They will be perfect to store items on or baby necessities. Not too sure HOW I can use that corner where the window is. It's just SO narrow. NOTHING in this room is where it is staying put. Steve and I just put the bed together this morning. Thank you Kris and Aaron for lending us the bed.





The curtains are a sage green although I do have to say they are coming down and I want to sew a prettier pair for each window. With help of my sewing buddies =)








This black lamp is NOT staying in the room. I got the 'b' at Anthropologie. One of my FAVORITE stores ever to shop at. Steve, not so much. He knows how expensive this store cost. A little owl candle and a white bird I ALSO got the Salem Mercantile.







Love love love her mirror. I am just TERRIBLE about combining all the items I love so that it flows. My friend Lindsay is great about this and has said she would help me. There is no bedding yet, though I did register for one...I might pick a different one now that it's starting to come together and Im getting a feel for the look......Shabby Chic that is.








Oh, so her name is Ellie Josephine Bono. Her nickname that we have already given her is Ellie Jo. Now we can talk to her and connect on another level. Yippieeeeeee Baby timeeee.

21 weeks!!

Yup, that's right fellas. I am over halfway threw this pregnancy. I can not tell you how exciting and quickly this has passed. Just tonight I had my first encounter of the girl laying completely on my right side. She made my belly look all crazy lop sided. No wonder my back hurt SO MUCH tonight and just on the right side.

Work is hurting my back too much, so tomorrow I am headed to super shoes to find some comfy shoes ((crocs, maybe? )) that are work appropriate. I can't stand to feel this way for a standing 10 hour shift. If my back was not so messed up before getting pregnant it might not be so bad carrying extra weight, but it is and I can't change, it just find solutions...quick!!!

Registering....

Today we are registering our 'girl' at Babies R Us. It's going to be a different feeling to walk into this store. I remember Dad taking us girls in there to pick out a new barbie, buy fake plastic food that I could cook with. Oh, the memories....NOW I am planning for our girl and the little items she will need from Toys R Us.

There are two baby showers planned for myself. April 21st is given by Kate Dever ((my boss)) and my family is putting together one on June 6th.
Thanks to everyone who care so much already about her.

Sophie.

First item that I have bought for my baby girl. Her name is Sophie the Giraffe. This is a very popular teething toy and great for babies to learn how to grip with. Many friends recommend this toy and come on...it's adorable.
