Nuh-Night Music

On my drive home from work the other day, I decided that I wanted to compile playlists of "Nuh-Night Music" for our baby girl. I think I will make several playlists with just a few songs that are soothing and will help her want to sleep. I haven't really started compiling them, but I know artists like Ben Harper and Feist will make an appearance. I think I will also do a playlist for Sunday with some of my favorite hymns and primary songs. If you have any songs that have helped you or your children settle down and go to sleep, now is your chance to suggest them to me!

Pop!

I haven't posted any pictures of what my belly looks like lately or any type of update on us, so here you go.


This was taken the day we found out we were having a girl. I was 20 weeks (just about 6 weeks ago).


Here I am just a few days ago at 25 1/2 weeks! It looks as though I "popped" over Christmas. I can't believe how much change these pictures show! I knew I had gotten bigger, but this definitely shows it. People are no longer afraid to ask me if I am pregnant. I have been feeling great and the doctor says am measuring right on schedule. I can't believe I am quickly approaching my 3rd trimester.

We spent our Christmas break with Landon's family in Florida. It was so nice to relax for a couple of weeks and forget about our responsibilities. We have been spoiled by both of our families with all kinds of baby items... Tons of cute clothes, shoes and accessories, my mom's rocking chair, a jogging stroller and car seat, and money for a crib. We feel very blessed. We are trying to sort and rearrange through all of our things so we can start setting up our baby's room.

We started school again and we will both stay busy with classes, research, and work. I'm sure this semester will fly by and we will have our little girl here before we know it. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that this year will be fantastic!
