Twinkle Twinkle Little Star




Last Sunday Nicole Brown came over and painted the nursery for us. Didn't she do an AMAZING job?! I love it and find myself just going into the nursery and staring at the wall. It makes me even more excited for Cletus to arrive. THANK YOU so much auntie Nicole!! You're the best! Brian finished the closet in the baby's room on Tuesday night too, so now the only thing left to do is organize all the stuff we've gotten and figure out if there's anything else we need. I think we're good with pretty much everything, except maybe diapers...but can you ever have enough diapers....

Tonight we're going shopping for the rest of the supplies for the master bathroom. Brian's goal this weekend is to get the floor tiled and the shower ready for tile. He's between sports season's right now (wrestling ended last weekend and girls softball doesn't start until March 10th) so it's a good time to get a lot of things done. This week he's already gotten so much done on the house, the laundry room is finished (sealed the groute, finished the trim and Carey the wash tub is done now too, so now I'll be able to tell you if I like it or not...), he hooked up the humidifier to the furnace, and finished the baby's closet.

Not much else planned at the Meyer Ranch this weekend. Girls night at Nicole Brown's Saturday night. Normally these girls nights get totally out of control, but seeing as me, Nicole Brown and her friend Terri are all pregnant something tells me it will be a pretty mellow girls night.

Blogging community here we come....































































So I've been "spamming" our family and friends for the last year or so with updates every 4-5 weeks and have finally decided to just start a blog. This way family and friends can check in with us any time they want instead of me sending out "spam" updates, especially with Cletus on the way, I'd probably be sending out those "spam" updates every week with new pictures of the baby.

I'll give you the heads up now, the Meyer Ranch is not all that exciting of a place, although there have been incidents of electrocution, large potentially hazardousness fires, and things getting shot at during hunting season, so I guess you never know what might happen.

Currently I'm 37 weeks pregnant and no I'm not tired of being pregnant yet and I don't think Cletus is ready to make his debut into this world yet either. He's still high in my rib cage kicking away. Brian and I decided not to find out the sex of the baby, so we don't know if it's really a little "Cletus" or not. I'm really hoping it is a "Cletus", but of course we'll be happy with a little girl as well. Everyone has declared to me that I am having a girl (based on how I'm carrying and just general gut feel) so I hope she doesn't mind we called her "Cletus" for the first 9 months of her life. I'm posting some pictures of the ultrasound. People have said they can determine the sex of the baby from one of the ultrasound pictures, so I take your best shot and let me know what you think...we'll see if you're right...
