20 weeks: IT'S A GIRL!!!

We went for our 20-week ultrasound today & found out we are having a girl!! They said everything looks perfect! I have been very blessed so far to have a very easy pregnancy. I feel very fortunate! The first 5 weeks or so were not so fun with nausea, but that's really nothing in the long run, so I'm very happy! I was telling Lewis that maybe we need to amend our "2 biological kids" plan to maybe be 3 because I'm good at being pregnant! haha we'll see.

So now Isis Ruby Clark has officially become a member of the family, although she'll maintain her residence inside mommy's belly for the time being. We look forward to her arrival at the end of the year / beginning of next year!

And now the fun stuff begins...REGISTERING!!!! I am so excited about picking out different things for our first baby!! I've been a regular visitor to www.babiesrus.com the past few months! I've already got my eye on a couple of things! I'm also very excited that my friend Susan has offered to make our baby bedding! So Isis will already have her own unique baby bedding - to go with her very unique name & fabulously unique parents! LOL

Anyway, I'm so happy I feel like I could just ooze happiness out my eyeballs! Any tips or suggestions for registry items? My biggest question is what travel systems do you all like? Or do you not like travel systems & would recommend splitting it up into carseat/carrier & stroller separately? I want brands & everything! Pros & cons!

Yay Baby Girl Isis on the way!!!!

I love our Chicco travel system. Everyone seems to have it and love it! We also have a Chicco umbrella stroller and love it too.

10 on Tuesday: 10 Favorite 6 Month Pics

This is completely gratuitous, just me posting pictures of Isis, but my friend Hannah took some pictures of our family yesterday! She is such a great photographer & she is also going to be watching Isis for me in the fall when I start my student teaching. I feel so blessed to have her as a friend on top of the fact that she takes gorgeous pictures of Isis!! I also realized that I didn't put any of the ones where she is smiling in this post. This just means I'll have to post more another time! Get excited! (And this is not a great comment-grabbing post , but who cares? This is for the digital baby book!)

When people sing the harmony part with a song on the radio 7. People who are trying to turn in a non-turn lane - or people who wait until the last second to get in the turn lane 8.
