We've had another busy week around here. We noticed on Sunday that the baby store near our house had some Canadian made cribs for sale. We messaged them, and they agreed to hold their last white one for us to check out after work on Tuesday. We ended up getting a $1000 crib for $475!!!! we figured it would fit in Andrew's car with the seats folded down....we were wrong....

So, on the roof of the car it went, and I had to follow Andrew home to make sure it didn't fall off! So of course we had to set it up as soon as we got home, the box was friggin' huge and I couldn't help Andrew get it up the stairs at all! Here it is, we love it:





On Wednesday I had my appt. with the midwife and we reviewed the results of our 20-week ultrasound. The baby is healthy and is developing normally. I, however, have a low-lying placenta. Apparently, my placenta will probably move as the pregnancy progresses, and it shouldn't be an issue. I'll have another ultrasound in my third trimester, and if my placenta hasn't moved enough, we'll have to consult with an OB.

AND....yesterday we went for a quick gender confirmation ultrasound at the 3D ultrasound place. It's now official....we are having a GIRL!!! The baby was moving around like crazy!!!! They told me to eat something sweet before the appointment, and I may have overdone it (hot chocolate, a snickers, and powdered sugar candy). We were able to see the baby yawning and stretching, it was so cool! She also quickly flipped it to 3D/4D for a quick minute because our little girl was in such a good position, it was awesome. Now we can't wait for the full 3D ultrasound which we booked for Apr.20 @ 9am.

Afterwards, we went and got curtains, curtain rods,  a new light, and a closet organizer for the baby's room. I was so excited about the light, it was originally $110, but we got it for $19 at Bouclair!!! Of course we spent the day putting it all up, well really Andrew did most of it. Here's the room so far:





So, we really just need a chair and a change table, and then we're pretty much be done. I'm going to order a wall decal from etsy for behind the crib, but haven't picked one yet.

Ok....that's all for now, we're about to watch the Grammy's....until next week...
