Lovin' baby stuff!

I am LOVING all the sweet gifts we have recieved over the past month or so and wanted to share all the fun stuff we have so far!! 
First - my mom is ridiculously awesome!!! Bless her heart - she can't stand the fact that we aren't going to find out if it is a boy or a girl so she just buys clothes for both!  When we were in town for Christmas she bought us 2 ADORABLE polo outfits and some frilly socks!  She sent me a package last week because I had left a few things back in Dallas and she also included some little onsies and more socks.  Why are little socks so cute? Why do they melt your heart?? Thanks mom for all the fun goodies...we've got a spoiled baby already.

Our good friends Steve and Katie came over for dinner before Christmas and brought us the cute green outfit with the little snuggie.  They were the first ones to bring over a little something.  WE love the fact that it can definitely be used for our little boy or girl.

Unkie B and Aunt Anna (aka - Brad and Anna) came and stayed with us a few weekends ago.  We had a blast catching up and sharing out exciting news with them.  They were the ONLY ones left to tell and we were dying to do it in person.  However...thanks to the secret spiller - facebook - they had found out the day before and brought us this little doggie. I can't tell you how much I'm in love with it.  I have to keep in on the shelf in our living room so I can keep looking at it.  It is my favorite kind of stuffed animal...one that already looks loved :).  Thanks Unkie B and Aunt Anna!!!
One of my favorite little gifts has been from my sister...these are seriously the most precious socks.  They are frilly and say blessed on the bottom.  Man - my girl stuff is outweighing my boy stuff right now.........Thanks sissy!!
Ok, have I told all of you how amazing my husband is? Seriously - I have never EVER felt more loved than I do now in this season of life.  He is absolutely hands down...wonderful.  The other day at work he came to see me and suprised me with a bag from Due Maternity.  He knew I've been wanting some new stuff and he suprised me with the perfect thing.  He got me a shirt that said "Let the Love Grow".  I LOVE IT and can start wearing it now and hopefully will still fit in it for a while.  Thanks babe! You are the best!
So I have been feeling a little down in the dumps lately.  I have REALLY been struggling with none of my clothes fitting!! Its that silly transitional stage where my clothes don't really fit, but I'm not ready for maternity.  So...I went up to my cuz's house yesterday, Sheli, and she gave me a whole TUB of maternity clothes - and I finally feel like I got excited about things "changing". Now I think I am getting excited about growing.  THANK YOU SHELI!! - And I promise I will start "embracing" this whole thing.

Lots on my mind lately - so check back for more of my thoughts on pregnancy.

Glad you updated! Such cute/fun baby stuff! You aren't finding out? That's exciting, but I don't know if I could have done it! Do you have a bella band? I wore that most of my pregnancy with my regular jeans and pants.
