Time for some pictures

       My sister becky and my mom are both quite put out that I havent posted enough pictures of myself or of our put-together nursery yet, so this post is to appease them. I need to take official belly shots still, but I'll probably do those tonight.
       So here I am at 23.5 weeks, just over 5 months:

And here's a pic of sam, showing off his pregnant belly so he could feel special:

Here's how our nursery's looking now that some of our stuff has arrived:
       I honestly LOVE having our little nursery all set up and coming together. I go in there at least 4 times a day just to stare at it and pet it and marvel in how cute it is :)
       As for new news with us, remember that nasty cold I mentioned last post? Yeah, that was only the tip of the ice berg. I havent been so sick in probably 4 years. It turned into a horrible fever accompanied with a headache, earaches, chills, sweats, dizziness, a bronchitis cough, and an all-consuming urge to stab myself with forks just to distract me from my misery. Being sick while pregnant sucks times ten for two reasons: 1) You can't take hardly any medicines because they aren't good for unborn babies 2) Coughing is a whole new world all together when you're coughing for two. Sam was an angel though and took such good care of me. He stayed home from work and kept changing the cold compress on my head and he didn't let me lift a finger. I'm SOOOOOO lucky to have such a wonderful husband who makes me feel so loved.

I love your nursery!! (did I tell you my niece has the same set?? SO cute!!!) It is adorable. I am glad you are feeling better...we must have caught what you have. Although we're lucky no chills/sweats yet. :P
Congrats on the AWESOME new car!!!! How fun. When are you putting in the carseat? haha That is always a crazy/scary moment when you realize a real life little person will be in there. :) You look so good! You are really great at posting pics...tell your mom and sister that. I have only posted one my whole pregnancy. So they should feel very lucky. haha
