Now that we are having a baby, we are probably going to scratch the idea of putting down hardwood flooring in the living room. It would be hard on the baby’s knees when he/she starts crawling, plus carpet would allow for a more cushioned fall for when they attempt to stand and walk. If we did get hardwood, I’d be sure to place some area rugs on the floor, especially around the furniture, as they are likely to begin pulling on by supporting themselves on the couch and things.
So, in the last blog I mentioned a secret! Well, I am ready to tell the world: James and I are going to have a baby!!!
I am SOO excited!!! We have been waiting for this for a long time, and it’s still a bit of a surprise to us. Yesterday was my first prenatal doctor’s appointment, and everything went fine. At 6 weeks, 3 days along, it was too early to hear the baby’s heartbeat, but we did get to do an ultrasound to see it! It looked like a small gray blob to us! The u/s tech even showed us the “flickering” of the heart beating, but I couldn’t really see it. My next appointment is February 2, so I will be blogging about this often!
Morning sickness set in for me over the weekend…though it’s more like all day sickness. Today has been the first day in about 3-4 days that I didn’t sleep more than I was awake (That coupled with the fatigue has been a bit unbearable). I wasn’t nauseous until after dinner. School starts tomorrow, so I hope I am not sick all day long…
I cannot wait to find out the sex! James and I are hoping for a boy!!

With the new year upon us, hopefully James and I can get some things done around the house. One of the things we’d really like to do (you’ve probably already heard me blog about it) is get a flat screen TV. It would free up so much space in the living room, especially if we hung it on the wall. We would need to get some kind of shelving system going, or a small tv stands that would allow us to still use our DVD/VCR combo, Wii, and satellite receiver on the TV for it all to work. Maybe soon…
