Introducing Baby Ethan

Born September 13th
I wound up in pre-term labor and had Baby Ethan just over 5 weeks early. He was completely unexpected but wery happily welcomed! I've already been discharged from the hospital but E had to stay behind in the NICU. No worries though he is doing great and will be home shortly. We love him!

Maxie Pad

We had to say goodbye to our beloved girl Pit Pit today. Her condition kept getting worse and showed no signs of improvement. We were with her the whole way but she told us it was time. We miss her and love her.

All Dressed in Ivory

I picked up my dress at the begining of the month and am on the lookout for those last minute articles to make my attire complete... I am still fighting with that whole old, new, borrowed, blue thing but I'm sure I'll figure something out. I'm thinking about buying a plain veil and decorating the tips of it with pumpkins. Something small that will be mostly unnoticed. It'll be exciting!

Pray for Max

Our poor puppy Maxie had a sudden fit of cluster seizures last night. The cause is unknown but we have her on medication to stop them. We have to bring her in in two weeks for testing.

The poor girl is completely out of it and seems like she has no clue what happened or even what is currently going on. I just want her to get better and Tyson is worried about his mommy.

Flowers, Flowers, Everywhere

Well not really because I'm using a combination of unusual things as centerpieces as well as some branch (curly willow) flower arrangements. My new florist talked me into using this pretty little rose called a circus rose. I like it because it is both red and orange. Very pretty.

My flowers will still have the same concept as the other store. Centerpieces with flowers and berries strewn in. My bouquet has the same idea but with the addition of fall leaves and red berries instead of purple. The leaves may also be included with other things.

Tony's bout will be the same flower but with decoration to match my bouquet.

The mothers, fathers, and grandfathers will all have the circus rose with their own special arrangements.

I'm excited. Her price quote is slightly higher than what I wanted but she is also offering more then the other shop is doing so I'm good. Now I just have to finish paying for it. Yum.

Flower Hell

So the flower shop I was using went out of business and transferred all their stuff to another company. This would have been fine because they are honoring the deposit I made to the other company however, their flowers are ugly. I've been to their shop before and visited their website and well I just don't like it. It is ugly, lopsided and completely unoriginal.
Sooooo after freaking out a little I remembered to call Lucy owner of A Rose in Bloom. I met with her yesterday and am thinking I might use her instead. granted I will have to simply drop the other account and the money I paid but I think I will be satisfied with Lucy and that she will do a much better job. I've seen her work at a wedding already so I know she does well.

Baby Update

I decided to give the blog a new look because I get tired of looking at things sometimes. I however, never seem to get tired of looking at this little guy! I pull out my hundreds of sono photos all the time and then talk to him in my tummy.

We visited the specialist about his heart and things check out ok. Hopefully it stays that way forever. We got even more baby pics and another confirmation that he is definitely a he. Good thing because the baby's room has been painted orange and blue and we are buying up all the fish things we like. Tony even got a fish tank for the baby room. We have filled it up with glofish and two tank frogs. It is really cute. Although, I think Tony is overly excited and we are going to end up with a fish tank trend. Oh well, at least I don't have to walk them or take them to the park.

It's a Boy!

We found out on Monday that we are having a boy! Looks like I'm outnumbered! We are excited and everyone knows Tony is proud!

On the down side I have to see a specialist next week because there may be something wrong with his heart. Of course I'm not letting this freak me out to much because well whats the point?

I am planning on starting the baby room painting process this weekend. Our colors will be orange and blue with a fish theme. (Surprised? lol)

Whis us luck! I'm thinking about a baby shower in August? Maybe?

Kisses!
