Good Day Sunday!

Yesterday turned out to be a pretty darn good day! First of all and probably most important in our house right now is that the Cowboys came through with a WIN!! We had a good day lounging around, being lazy and watching football most of the day. I was a little productive when I finished cleaning out the rest of the closets to make room for baby stuff. Next on the agenda is cleaning out the baby room. I don't think we are the only people who have a room that somehow becomes the 'junk' room. At least I hope we are not...please tell me we are not! We have not used this room for much of anything since we moved in except to collect all the stuff we are too lazy to find a place for. With the baby on the way the room is getting a much needed cleaning and makeover. I won't post before pics before we clean because lets face it...it is too embarrassing...and I don't get embarrassed easily. The other really exciting thing that happened yesterday is that I ordered the furniture for the baby's room. I found a set I really loved a while back at JC Penney. We were planning on waiting a little longer to order since we didn't even have the room ready to put it in. However, I was looking online and found out it was on SALE!! We couldn't resist and ordered it yesterday. I am so excited to get it in and to get the room all ready for the little one. Here are some pictures of the furniture...we ordered the crib, dresser and changing table in the espresso (dark) wood color shown. They show the crib with girly bedding but it looks equally as cute with boy bedding depending on what we have! Now we just have to wait untill our sonogram on Friday to decide on bedding!

Big Week

Hi everyone (all 2 of you). It has been too long since my last post. Many of you already know that Bobby and I are expecting our first bundle of joy in February! We are very excited. I have been feeling well and just this past week I have started to feel the baby move a little...AMAZING! This is a BIG WEEK in the Cowan house. First of all the Dallas Cowboys start their regular season today against Tampa Bay. I hope they do well and I really hope they win.. because lets face it....the Cowboys losing makes for a LONG week in our house. The other exciting thing we have going on is that on Friday (September 18th) we will be having our 20 week ultrasound. We are praying that everything will be perfect with the baby and we are hoping to find out whether or not we are having a boy or girl. I honestly don't have a preference either way...we just want a healthy baby. We do have a name picked out either way! We have been working on the house off and on since my last post. We have all of the big projects completed for now. The next project is to get the baby's room ready...it needs paint for sure and we would like to put in a new floor. I have to admit I am most excited about this project than any other. I have been in a mini-nesting mode, cleaning out closets and orgainizing cabinets trying to get things organized before the baby gets here! The Cowboys are about to start so I better get going. I hope to keep you all updated much more often now that I am back!
