Registry Fun!

Here's Ryan zapping his favorite registry item!

Ryan and I ventured to Babies R Us last night to start Swarley's registry, and boy was it daunting and exhausting! We only stayed for about an hour before we decided we had just had too much...

Ryan has given me the green light to come back on my own sometime to register for items such as bottle nipples and a breast pump :) Have any suggestions for "must have" baby items???

Flutters and Pulses!

I am 99% sure I felt Swarley move last night!!!

Maternity Clothes - I am getting frusturated with maternity clothes...we had some lovely weather when I first started wearing them, but now it is cold again...and all of my cold clothes are way too big, as I thought I would be wearing them this fall! And none of my non-maternity shirts cover my maternity pants!!

Sleep - Sleepin' like a baby...pun intended :)
