Tinkerbell's paradise

Last weekend we finally got some time to work on Kaitlyn's new "big girl" room. We moved her into our spare bedroom and we'll be putting the crib back up in her old room for the baby. Since we've decided not to find out the gender and the nursery is very genderal neutral we decided it was best to move her and give her the most girlie room we can. The walls are already a pale purple so we don't have to do any painting just some new furniture and decorations. It's still a work in progress but we're eventually getting it all done. Her dresser is now full of clothes, we have to put up some shelving in the closet before moving that stuff and then decide which toys go and which stay in the baby's room.

The new bedding and "Kaitlyn" decal. I'm kind of surprised she hasn't tried to peel it off the wall yet, hopefully she doesn't think about it because it is not reusable. Her bedding has little lights in the comforter that are motion activated so it twinkles when she moves around. Thanks to my mom for getting it all, it looks great.

Jessie's official 30th birthday shot, taken just after midnight on the 6th. She got Crown Royal while I had sprite, you can't let a girl drink alone after all!

This weekend we got to celebrate the 3oth birthday of my best friend and Kaitlyn's godmother. My friend Megan and I made a fabulous Italian dinner for 10 friends then we all headed to St. Paul to see our first Roller Derby bout. It's an interesting sport, we're thinking about going again sometime. After that we headed to Uptown for cocktails. Lucky for us Kaitlyn slept until 10:30 Sunday morning so we got to recover, I was tired, Andy was "sick".




1/2 way there!

I'm officially 20 weeks and feeling good. This pregnancy seems to be going by really fast, almost too fast for me.

We had our 20 week ultrasound last Monday and Andy finally got to take a peek at Baby Burak. We've got a little gymnast, that baby was curled up into the smallest ball you can imagine, I told Andy "it" looks kind of like a hedgehog so we refer to the baby as Sonic now. We opted not to find out the gender of the baby and we were told that due to the position they wouldn't have been able to tell anyway. Guess we'll find out in July! Andy and I are both thinking it's a boy but we've got a 50/50 chance.

I'll have to take pictures and post them soon, in the past week I've gotten huge, or at least I think I have. No more sucking in this tummy.
