Wonderful, Fabulous, Amazing Weekend!!!

Well this was a FULL weekend. I was so ready for Thursday I couldn't stand myself because my MOMMA was coming to town. She got here Thursday and we headed over to the daycare I had chosen and I wanted her and Jason's opinion on it before I made my final decision. They both thought it was really nice so I will probably go up there in a few weeks and secure the spot for starting first week of April 2011 if everything stays on track and I don't have a nervous break down and can't go back to work..ha!

Well Friday morning we were all up early getting ready for the BIG doctors appointment. We were getting the anatomy scan and were going to get to find out 100% what we were having. They had told us 4 weeks ago that it was 80% boy, and they usually don't get those wrong, but oh did they ever this time. We got there and the lady said well you see these three little lines and I couldn't believe my ears she said IT'S A GIRL!!!!! I was on cloud nine but you could tell Jason had already had his hopes up for that football/baseball playing, sitting in front of the TV on Sunday afternoons watching some ball games, but I told him that he can do all of those things with his sweet little girl :) So we are now putting Jaxon Cash back in the name bucket and going with Lyla Faith!!! Here are pictures of our sweet baby girl.

Sucking her thumb :) So sweet!

It's a GIRL!!!

Her sweet little face!!! She is weighing right in at 17 weeks 1 day at 6 ounces!

After my doctors appointment mom and I headed up to the school to get my room in order for this year. I had left it such a mess at the end of the school year because I was feeling so bad with baby sickness that everything just got thrown in drawers and cabinets. To my surprise it actually was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. We worked pretty hard for about three hours and got everything done. I just have to go in there next week and do a few organizing paper work and such but we got my/student desks, computers, and a few other big things ready to roll for next week. I was SO thankful that my mom was here to help me, I don't know what I would have done without her. Jason has to come up to the school and help next week move two file cabinets out of my room that I don't want anymore but they have to be cleaned out first :) We came home and picked up Jason and went and had a delicious dinner at Texas Roadhouse..yummy! Then we came home and crashed!!!

Saturday was shopping day, but not before we spent two hours at the vet getting Mason fixed up. He was due his shots anyway but I guess he got something in his eye while he was at moms the last few days because it was swollen shut by Saturday morning. Poor baby got 4 shots, something up his nose and down his throat along with pills and drops for his eyes. He is much better today. (Just sad along with me that momma is gone.) I had two different furniture stores picked out that I thought we could find something at. The first place we didn't have much luck but by the second place we hit the jackpot. They had a crib that I loved and even better it and the changing pad were on SALE...even better!!! So after looking around and making our final decisions this is what we got!

Crib - it is dark espresso and is the 3-in-1 goes from crib to toddler bed, to full size! We even got a really nice mattress on sale that one side is the infant mattress and then you flip it for the toddler mattress and it has a lifetime warranty and some other neat features as well.

The changing table - It is kind of hard to see because it was behind another bed but it has drawers underneath the changing pad. Thought this would give us more room in there instead of getting a dresser also.

We looked for bedding all day but really didn't find the perfect one. Mom and I came home and got on the internet and started searching. Well, we found this one and I think it is SUPER cute. Gigi went ahead and made her first purchase for her sweet Lyla and ordered it for us. THANKS MOM!!! I will be able to get a better look once it arrives, but I think it is going to work out well.

Here it is...We got the bedding set, hamper, diaper storage, valance, and my most favorite thing of the whole bedding which isn't pictured is the mobile..It is SO SO cute! I will have to post a picture of it later.

I think this whole Gigi thing wore my mom out she couldn't keep her eyes open..ha! She is going to kill me because she had NO idea that I took this picture of her..but I couldn't help myself!!!! LOVE YOU MOM!!!

We had a great weekend but a few tears were shed when she left this morning..poor Jason hates when my mom leaves because he knows that I sit around and pout the rest of the day. The first thing he says is...yeah so I need to find a job in New Boston huh?? :) Well my summer days have come to an end and school starts for me bright and early in the morning. I am not the least bit worried though because of us already getting my room ready to go..so I am BEYOND blessed with a FABULOUS mom, HEALTHY sweet baby girl, AMAZING husband...and most of all a GOD who has provided me with all of these wonderful things!
