Bad Bloggers and Baby's Nursery...

Happy New Year and Welcome 2010!


So much has been going on in the Brantley House but we have been horrible about blogging it!!

I am not even going to attempt to catch up on all the fun stuff I am just going to post what is up today.

Our baby is due this month - although he could come in February so who knows? But we are getting ready and his nursery is almost finished.

Here are some pictures...
this is what the nursery looked like after our Baby Shower!

this is today....we still have some small things we need/want to do but it's pretty much finished.

inside the drawers - yes i am really that organized.

coming home outfit - Thanks to Kareem's Mom!!!

and finally a little something for Mommy - a shower gift from my friend Lizz - can't wait to put this to use ;)

We have picked out his name - Deacon Morris - Deacon because we love the name, it is a strong name and unique but not too weird or hard to spell.  Then his middle name is after my Pop-Pop who is deceased - his name was Morris. Deacon will be formally named for him in Hebrew at his Briss after he is born!

Mabel is so cute - she is so good with all the baby stuff - none of it bothers her and she doesn't try to take anything - it's like she 'knows' it's not for her - EXCEPT the Sleep Sheep - let's just say she hates it - we aren't sure why yet but she despises the Sleep Sheep (noise making Sheep hanging off the crib).  She bites it's foot every time she goes in the nursery.  LOL!

Now I need to get serious about packing a hopital bag because he could really come at any time at this point!

love, a+k

Baby B is growing!

I don't think I look as big as I feel at this point but I really can't complain because I am still having a really great pregnancy so far :)

I mean of course I have had some stuff (back pain, heartburn, headaches, leg cramps) but all in all it has been great and none of those things have been debilitating so I feel lucky!

17 Weeks and counting!

I don't think my belly has changed much since 15 weeks but my ass sure has - luckily I don't have to take pics of that every 2 weeks! lol

Did I mention we are having a Baby?

Sooooooo - most of you already know this good news but Kareem and I have been blessed and are having a Baby!

Baby B is due January 31st, 2010 so we are looking at an Aquarius Baby which seems like a good thing for us (Gemini and Virgo)!

We are really excited and looking forward to this next phase in our lives and our relationship and practicing getting a lot sleep, quiet time and relaxation together before Baby B appears and rocks our world upside down LOL!
