RaeRae’s Pregnancy Journey

Woohoo! Momma & Michelle on a new mission June 1, 2008

Saturday mornings were always pretty fun for me. I got up at 7am and met up with Michelle and we would “woo hoo” aka “go to garage sales.” The term woo hoo stuck after we’d drive around , see a sign and say “woo hoo” and Nina, Chelle’s daughter, would repeat eagerly in the backseat “WOO HOO!” It was funny and soon enough Nina would ask us when we were going woo hooing again. It had been a good while since my lazy butt got up to go on a Saturday morning mission, but it was so beautiful this morning I couldn’t resist.

In the past, I always went for household stuff. Looking for great furniture at a steal of a price, but this time we’ve got a new mission : BABY STUFF.

Now, I’m only 14wks today and we still don’t know what the sex of the baby is. My eyes tend to gravitate towards boys stuff ALL the time, while Rays gravitate towards girls stuff. I know that today I need to stay pretty neutral in my finds until we find out what we’re having. I thought this was going to prove to be too tough to find anything to bring home. SHA-RIGHT! Who am I kidding. Chelle and I are the queens of woo hooing and we scored today.

I spent less than $20 today and left with 20+ onesies, new burp clothes, blankets and TEENY TINY socks galore! I also found the absolute CUTEST Longhorn cap with Texas embroidered on it and a Longhorn logo..a perfect match to the newborn booties that Kim bought the baby and perfect for a newborn head. AWWW!

Yea, because I have yet to dread doing baby laundry I happily came home to put this to wash. Hehe. And yea, there are a few things in blue there that I just had to get..just in case.. :P

Last weekend I went to the outlet mall to Papaya to look for a couple pairs of shorts for me since I have none. Silly me sold them all and gave the rest away when I lost too much weight. I kinda need those size 5’s back right now. My curiosity took me to Carters where I bought “my first bear”

Isn’t he the cutest?! Its soooo soft and Princess really wants to snuggle up, but this is for the new baby of the house. I really should get her one of her own so she won’t feel left out.

Oh yea I almost forgot about this beauty I found!

I’m not really big on sweets, especially now that I’m pregnant. Most things sweet make me go “ick” right now (yes, I know I”m totally weird in that aspect of pregnancy huh?) BUT I saw this cake and I thought to myself..

 

OH ,I WANT THIS FOR MY BABY SHOWER!!!

Isn’t it beautiful?! I have never seen a more beautiful baby shower cake in my life! I almost want to try and make it myself just for kicks but who am I kidding? I can’t decorate a cake like this! But I know someone who can and ooooooooooooo I hope I see a beauty like this for my shower. MMMM HMMMM.  

I also wanted to record that I still weigh 120lbs. Apparently all of my current weight and extra intake of food is being distributed straight to the baby and somehow, despite not being sick I haven’t gained any weight after my first trimester.

 

We are now officially in the 2nd trimester !
