Baby Williams has a NAME!!!

James Warren Williams
After a long....and big....decision...Baby Williams has a name!! Yay!!
His full name will be "James Warren Williams" - We will call him Warren!! Where did we find this name?!?! I'm so glad you asked!! :)
James is a family name for both of our families - Warren will be the 4th generation with the first name James - in Eric's family. He is also named after my Grandpa - my mom's dad - Pa Jim Disher. Where does Warren come from? My dad's dad - Pa Gilbert. His full name was Gilbert Warren. I have always LOVED the name Warren - so it's a great fit!!

More Decisions
Since I cannot find any bedding that I am just in LOVE with, we are going to get some bedding made! Eric and I ventured out to the fabric store Saturday morning to find the perfect stuff! (Thank God for Eric - he's so sweet for going with me to all of these places) I think we are going to go with the orange, brown, and blue pattern! :) I'm going to make the curtains and other pillow accessories for the room!! Yay! It's all going to come together!!

I also found these snazzy giraffe paper lanterns that I will hang in the nursery as well!! (In case you haven't noticed, I LOVE animal print!!) Ha ha!!


23 Weeks and Counting....
So - it is definitely crazy that on Tuesday, we will already be 24 weeks - Where is the time going?!!? Good Lord!! Here's a pic of the big 'ole belly shot!


I'm so excited because I can finally distinctly feel the lil' man moving around in that big belly! For quite a while now, mom keeps asking me, "have you felt life?" I've been getting super frustrated because I always say nooooo..... but - NOW I have felt him dancing around in there!! He especially loves to move around during church - I guess it's all the music!! So - they say that the little man is about the size of a large mango right now...I mean - have you seen the size of that belly up above?!!? Hard to believe he's only this big....
We head back to the doctor tomorrow - Yay!! It's been 5 weeks this go around - so we can't wait to see what he has to say this time!! We get to have another ultrasound tomorrow too - stay tuned tomorrow and I'll post the action!

BUSY Weekend!!
Eric has simply been "slaving!!" around this house!! We have just one project after another!! Our newest project is extending the patio in the back yard. We... or should I say ... Eric is extending the patio out to be an 18x18. It was nothing short of a HOT STEAMY MESS outside this weekend - whew was it hot?!?
Check out his progress!


Well - I'm off to get ready for the week - super TICKLED it's a 4 day work week - and so is the next week!! Yay for holiday weekends! I'll talk to ya'll tomorrow!

Decisions...Decisions...Decisions....

Happy Monday..... as happy as that can be....huh?!? :) I hope everyone had a great weekend!!

Last week was a busy week for me, workwise! I'm glad it's over - but I did have a fun night of painting at Easely Amused - my favorite!!  Check out my masterpiece - called "Orange Crush" Yep - I painted it all my by self!!

Unfortunately, I was bitten by the sleepy & migraine bug on Friday....BUMMER!!! :( I sooooo haven't had a headache in awhile either....That's NEVER fun!! I came home early Friday to nothing but a throbbing migraine....shew! So - I napped ....until 11 PM!! Ha!! Still not gone - so thank god I have medicine for those pesty things!! If that is all I have to deal with tho - throughout this pregnancy - then I'll be just fine! :)

Sunday was a big day around our house!! We ordered Baby Williams his bed!! Thanks to my parents, they purchased the little man a snazzy bed - hopefully he'll take it to college, Dad was sure to say - it will probably only last 2 years!!

Check it out!

Eric and I really like how it converts to a daybed for when he gets older....
Now - we just have to figure out what kind of bedding we are going to get. That is the true test - I cannot find anything that I am just "in love" with!!! Looks like I'm going to have to go with a custom bedding. I like wild animal prints for the nursery, Eric says I'm a little silly!! Imagine that!!

We are now approaching 23 weeks and I have a major BABY BUMP!! Man...he decided to pop on out this week!! Dang!!




Hope everyone has a great week! I'm gearing up for a good no plans of a weekend!! Yay!!

Tomorrow we officially start week 22! Absolutely wildness!

Mothers Day & Anniversaries
Eric and I had our 2 year Wedding Anniversary on May 3rd. We are so blessed for the life that we have shared together so far.  I asked Eric the day of our anniversary if he thought 2 years ago we would be starting a family now....he was QUICK to answer...well Lord no!! Ha ha!! We celebrated our anniversary by spending the weekend together (as always) working in the yard and in the house - we have officially cleared out the nursery.

For our anniversary, we bought each other a new car!! Not too shabby...huh?!? Eric couldn't stand the 'ole Land Rover so we traded it in for a new Tahoe. It's very nice, I'm just trying to get used to driving such a big car. I made the comment the other day it feels like I'm driving a big pontoon just floating down the road!! Ha ha!!

We headed home to Missouri for Mother's Day this past weekend - we had such a great time and as always, it was fantastic to see everyone!! Boy - are we tired tonight tho?!?

Had to post the belly pics - I'll have to catch up later this week! Have a great week - It's Women's National Health Week by the way - so all you chickies - take good care of yourself!!
