Introducing Mia

Yesterday, we added a new puppy to our family, a St. Bernard we named Mia!! We first met Mia when she was 3 weeks old and we just loved her. We were finally able to bring her home at 8 weeks and already, she's proven that she has a big personality!! She fits right in with our current crew of Molly and Mosa. She likes to play a lot and when she's not playing, she likes to sit on your foot or right next to you. It's funny to watch her run because her feet can't quite keep up with her yet so we've seen a few face plants...and yes, we laughed!! She's really cute and we're really proud and happy to have her here!! Introducing.....MIA!!!

TWINS!!!! I say that they look alike because they both have big heads!! HA HA!!!

Mama giving Mia some love!!!!

Our dog crew...Mosa, Molly, and Mia! It was so hard to get them to stay like this! Molly lays like this when she thinks she's in trouble. Her left paw ALWAYS comes up! Her's precious!!Although Mia has her own bed and own food bowl, she's become quite fond of Molly's bed. I'm sure Molly doesn't like that too much but I'm sure she enjoys the company!

LITTLE (for now) MIA!!!

Introducing baby William Carter's crib and crib bedding!! We don't have anything on the walls yet and haven't done much else with the nursery but we are finished with this part, which I think is the most important! ;o) It makes me even more anxious (and nervous) to have little Will here!! Only 4 1/2 more months!!!

The bumper is striped on the inside and has monkeys (like the comforter/quilt) on the outside. And the bedskirt is the same stripes as the inner bumper.

This is the beautiful crib that Kaa Kaa and Oma (aka Mama and Deddy) got for Will!! Thanks, Kaa Kaa and Oma!!!!

17 week Ultrasound! It's Definitely a BOY!!

We had our 17 week ultrasound today and confirmed that we are, in fact, having a BOY! Everything looks great and he's definitely going to be long!! The ultrasound tech even commented on how long his arms and legs are! They did blood work today to check for Downs Syndrome and other diseases. I've never had my arm butchered before but today was the day!! As Mama says though, "I'll live." We started on the nursery this week and got the crib together. We're planning on buying the crib bedding this weekend. Once we have it put together, I'll post pictures of it. For now, enjoy our little BOY!!


Profile shot!

Face shot and first glimpse at his stomach. (The little black dot in his abdomen is his stomach!)

IT'S A BOY!! (The two white sticks are his legs and in between are his boy parts!)

Big Mama at 17 weeks!! This is the first picture I've taken of myself since 5 weeks!! I knew my belly was getting big but oh my word!! This little booger is growing!!! Are we sure I'm not 7 months? I think it might be the angle though because Jeremy and I both don't think I'm THIS big already...who knows! That's what happens when a 6'2" man takes a picture! ;o)
