It's a BOY!!!

So in case any of you wondering these past few weeks, we have found out we are having a BOY! We went in for the U/S where they check all of the baby's organs, sex, and size. Everything was perfect, except as usual our little one did not want to cooperate fully and we have to return in 4 weeks to finish looking at all of the anatomy ( not that I mind, I love going in and seeing him on the screen moving and shaking).

J graduated this weekend and our families flew down for the occasion. Graduation was very formal and A LOT faster than our previous undergrad graduations (4 1/2 hours in the pouring rain). J started his BAR classes this past Monday and had to miss the U/S but my parents were there and loved seeing their grandson on the television in all his baby glory.

Thank you to all of you making your helpful suggestions and those of you who voted on the sex of the baby. ( bask in your greatness if you were right :) )

I'm Back!

So, I know I have been MIA for a few weeks but I'm back and ready to chat :) All is well after the shooting at the school a few weeks ago, and things have gotten back to normal (whatever that means ) :)

I attended Kelly's baby shower yesterday (thank you Amanda for hosting such a magical tea party) and it was very nice to see all the girls as well as little Harper. Kelly got some great and adorable clothes for the future baby Josephsen and we all got to oooohhhh and aaaahhhh over everything.

J and I are doing well here in the sunny city and he decided to accept a job offer, so we are on our way to total adulthood! I am very excited for him because as he would say it "it's his DREAM job" and I couldn't have asked for anything else. I only have about 5 weeks left in school and then I'm off to Seattle for some fun on the West Coast.

The baby is still doing well (I'm sorry I haven't posted the recent U/S pics but I have yet to figure out our scanner-but I will have them up sometime in the next few months :) ) I am starting to wonder if the grumbling in my tummy is ever baby Andrew but for now I will have to wait until he/she decides to make their precense more well known. We are set to find out the baby's gender May 19th so please be checking for that in the next few weeks. We are very excited to find out the gender and I can't wait to start registering and buying more things for the baby.

I have decided with all the verteran mother's/ preggies out there I would like to use this blog as a forum for suggestions and words of wisdom. So I will start it: If you have any suggestions for stroller brands and snuggly brands that have worked for you please let me know. O would also like to know what I shouldn't even bother purchasing yet, because the baby wont need it for a few months or even for the first year. Thank you to everyone who has already made wonderful suggestions and I hope to learn from all of your wonderful insight and wisdom in the coming months.

See you all at the next one!
