Our baby will be 18 weeks tomorrow!

ALMOST HALF WAY THERE!

Tomorrow is 18 weeks. Our babycenter.com thing says that the baby is the size of a bell pepper- 5 1/2 inches long.

We have our ultrasound the day after Thanksgiving to determine the sex and exact age of the baby- we're getting the measurements and all of that. We will post pictures as soon as we get them!

Slappy doll! Cutest thing ever!

When Mark and I found out we were pregnant the absolute first thing I bought was a custom made stuffed animal that looks like Slappy! Yes, I am that insane. Anyway, the artist just finished making it and its pretty much the cutest thing ever!



Her name is Stacey and she owns Three Red Trees, its an etsy.com store. She custom makes dog stuffed animals out of socks and donates 10% to dog rescues!!! How awesome is that? Plus she is a local Kansas City artist. Anyway, here is a link to her stuff: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20638455

Slapasaurus is closer than she appears

We went hiking again this weekend in Weston, MO. It was almost 80 degrees and sunny. The dogs got to swim and we got to hike. It was amazing! Slappy had the time of her life (again).
