Hello spring!

Thank goodness spring is finally here! On the first official day of spring, we had a blizzard! It was a yucky weekend, but the sun has come back out quickly.

I'm 17 weeks along now, and unfortunately I'm still pretty sick. But at least it seems to be sickness only in the morning and I (usually) feel better in the afternoon. Yesterday my good friend came up from Norman and I got to go with her and my two other good friends to Stars and Stripes Park by Lake Hefner -- and it was a beautiful day! I actually got to hang out with the girls and soak up the sun for like two hours! It felt so wonderful after being cooped up in the house, laying on the couch for about 10 weeks now.

I also took my camera along for the outing and got some fun pictures of my friends' kids -- and my kid, of course. But if you want to see more, go to my other blog -- megtalbotphotography.blogspot.com. There were a lot of pics, so I decided to put it on there. :)

In other news, we only have about a week and a half and we find out whether we're having a boy or girl; I'm so excited! And the best part: My mom and dad are coming out to see us next week, so my mom will come to the ultrasound with me. So watch for the announcement next Thursdsay!!!

Such a big boy...

We're so excited; my parents are coming out to see us at the end of the month, and so in trying to get ready for their visit, we moved Drew's twin-size bed into his room. I thought maybe he'd keep sleeping in the crib until he got ready for it, but he was ready right away! He slept in it that night and has ever since.

He was so excited! He had to climb right in when we got it set up. This is a bed a friend in our last ward gave us. I repainted it a bright blue and recovered the headboard. It's hard to see, but the thing on the left is a bed rail so he won't fall out. He's been sleeping pretty good, except that he's been waking up far too early for my taste. I'm hoping to get some extra sleep with daylight savings time.

Ahhhh.... He's growing up fast, but I'm so enjoying this time!
