I've lagged.

Lots of fun stuff has happened in the last month and I've really lagged on posting. The most exciting thing was confirming we are having a boy! YAY!

Corey went to Oregon and Washington for a week with his buddy Jerry, they saw the sights, visited friends, took photos and got to skateboard what Corey claims is the best park in the US on Orcas Island around Portland. He had a great time and I'm glad he was able to take a trip like this before the baby comes.

During that week I was in San Diego with my family. We had a blast as always relaxing by the bay and pools. I did go out on the boat to get pictures of Danielle and my dad wakeboarding but the baby didn't like that very much. I felt my first good couple of kicks(?) the day before I came home.

The day after we both got home we went to Rich and Mary's wedding at a winery in Temecula, the ceremony was outside overlooking the fields and the reception was in the barrel room. It was beautiful and so romantic, really about their love which of course brought back so many good memories of our wedding almost 2 years ago.

I got a couple things for the baby in San Diego and we went on Monday and bought our bedding. I was so stressed because I wasn't finding bedding I loved, but when Corey and I browsed online together his favorite was the one I originally picked out, we went to Babies R Us to look at it and bought the set while we were there. It's all becoming more real to Corey now, he started sweating after we had been in BRU for a few minutes. I don't know when it's normal for "outsiders" to feel the baby move but Corey can't feel it yet and probably won't for a few weeks due to my Anterior Placenta, he's bummed about it. After we hadn't seen each other for a week he mentioned that because he see's me everyday he didn't notice my belly but after being gone for a week he can tell I'm pregnant now.

This is his bedding. We love the bright colors! I know I wanted something really bright and cheerful. The room will probably be painted lime green and light blue with the border in the middle. I'm so excited to get started on the room in a few weeks.
