A couple weeks ago Maecie's letters for her room finally came.
So I finally had some time tonight to get them decorated.

Just thought I would let you all know...

I'm still pregnant. Dangit.
I am almost to a 3, and my Dr. is gone this week. :(
I really thought this little girl would be making her appearance last week.
Sadly it didn't happen.

Taylor and I keep wondering:
Who is she going to look like?
Will she have her mother's ears? (lets hope not!!!)
What color of eyes will she have?
What day will she really come into this world?
What if they were wrong and she's really a boy?!?!?!

These are just a few of the things we wonder about and we will find these things out eventually. I'm hoping for sooner than later! :)

This weekend Shalay has been in Mexico so Taylor and I have been hanging out with Mitch, Lexie and Cole (the youngest 3 of my siblings). It has been fun to see them so much. They sure are growing up quick. The other night we were driving out to my house to pick up a few things (since I am staying at their house) and on the side of the road is a Raccoon, just sitting there hanging out. Next thing I know there is another raccoon in the middle of the road and i hit it. SERIOUSLY?!?! It tore part of the skirt off my Tahoe bumper but Coleson thought it was the funniest thing on earth. He laughed and laughed and if you bring it up at any time he will just start laughing. And when we were coming back the dang thing was gone. It must not have killed him if he wasn't still lying in the road. Crazy animal. That's the first animal I have ever hit. It made me sad. I felt better when we went back passed and he wasn't lying dead in the road.

The chair rail trim is up in the baby's room! I am so excited! Thanks Taylor and Scott. As soon as I get her room all decorated I will post some pictures. I am so excited to have it all finished. I ordered the letters for her wall last week so I am hoping they get here soon! I love how it's all looking. Her room will be much nicer than ours, but that's ok. I am enjoying spoiling her already! :) This could be a bad thing.

Anyway, just thought I would let you know...Still no baby...due date is 10 days away.
I will be so sad if I go over.

I am also bummed my Colts lost yesterday...

Baby's Room...

I still don't have a camera cord so here are some pictures of the baby's room off of my phone.
I am getting so excited.
I love her crib and bedding.

Better view of her bedding

Crib and swing

Bassinet, stroller/carseat and dresser (and cute diaper cake Grandma, Shannon and Rachel made for my shower. It's too cute to take apart

Yesterday Taylor finally broke down and we got to paint her room!!! This is Taylor doing some painting.
We did chocolate brown around the whole bottom and the the top is Tan and just the wall her crib will be on the wall is pink (as below) We are putting up a trim to separate the two colors. It is looking good so far. Hopefully he will get the trim up today so i can post a picture of the finished project.
I'm really liking it! Thanks Taylor! She will definantly LOVE her room! I need to make her a Bow/accessories board to hang in her room. (that's what the cork board is for)

38 days until my due date! I can't believe it's coming so fast! We are so excited for her to get here.

People have been asking about what we are going to name her so I thought I would blog about it. I had a long list of super cute girl names, but Taylor shut most of them down and other family members wanted names I have been liking. But we decided to go with a different name.
We are thinking
Maecie

We are not sure on her middle name yet. It will either be Lyn or B. Taylor doesn't want her to have a middle name, but I want her to.
Taylor's Great grandma's name is Mae and it's also Shellie's middle name so that's why we chose the unusual spelling.
When she gets here we will decide if it fits her or not.

Baby update

On Dec. 23rd we had an ultrasound. Taylor was unable to make it so I went alone.

First off when I got there they didn't even take me back until 3:40pm and my appt was at 3:00.
Finally the Tech came and got me and she wasn't very friendly, she asked why I was there and what Dr. Hall was looking for in this ultrasound.
So she takes all the pictures she needs and then does the baby's measurements, pretty normal U/S visit up to this point. Then She turns the screen so I am not able to see much and she is pushing VERY hard on my stomach looking at "something", she was silent and making weird faces. Then she asked if I have been having any pain. I said "Well don't all pregnant women have pain?" No response back from the her. This went on for about 20-25 min. I asked if the baby had caught up and she said yes she is only 3 days behind now. Then she stopped doing the ultrasound and said "Don't wipe the gel off ,the Radiologist is going to have to look!" and she walks out of the room, leaving me terrified. I'm all alone, I have no idea whats going on, I cried a little thinking that something is seriously wrong with me or the baby. Finally after about 30 min she came back in and said "Ok you can go." So I started to get up and clean the gel off and I said "Well is everything ok?" She wouldn't look me in the eye, she kept cleaning things up and said "Your Dr. will call you with the results."
So here I am walking out of the Imaging center terrified and alone, Dr Hall's office is closed, Taylor won't answer the phone, I just started to bawl. People are calling me to see how the ultrasound went and I didn't even want answer the phone until I could talk to Taylor.
Taylor Finally called me back and we talked. I felt much better after telling him about my expirience. But we both figured that if something was seriously wrong the Imageing center would contact Dr. Hall and he would call me.
So over the holiday and weekend I lost much sleep and worried quite a bit. But I made it through the weekend. On Monday I wasn't going to wait for Dr. Hall to call me. At 8:45am I called him and he said that he had been at the office for 30 min and I was the 4th woman to call with concerns about thier ultrasound results. He said he was sorry that I worried all weekend but both the baby and I are fine, no need to worry. He said she caught up but he might change my due date from the 18th of Feb to the 27th....I'm thinking he should leave it the 18th!
Needless to say Monday night I slept like a rock!!!

I had an appt yesterday (29th) and Dr Hall went over what to do if I go into labor and told me I can't be more than an hour away from the hospital after Jan 10th. It's coming so quickly!

Since we couldn't find the camera cord Taylor ordered one so I could put up pictures of the baby's room, basement and Christmas. It came and it's the wrong cord. So Pictures will come sometime soon.

Scott and Shellie came over Saturday while Taylor was at work and helped me moved the office downstairs and Shellie helped me organize the closet and Scott put together the crib and my stroller/carseat. THANK YOU SCOTT AND SHELLIE!!! I feel so much better that is done! I love walked passed her room now and its not just full of boxes. Taylor says when we get back from the cabin we can get her room painted and I can't wait for that. I'm getting super excited! :) The basement is looking awesome too! We are almost finished. They are finishing the tile in the bathroom this week and then cabinets come next week and then all we have is to finish the outlets. It feels like we have a whole other house now that its almost complete! Pictures to come soon!!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. We are headed to the cabin for New Years. It will be good to just relax and have no worries. Hope you all have a Happy New year!

More random Morrow happenings...

Saturday Tay and I celebrated our anniversary! I can't believe how fast time goes by! We went to dinner and went to the movie Couples Retreat. We had a good time. I got Taylor wheels and tires for his pick up. I don't know what he was planning on getting me but I ended up with a Tahoe! We found a good deal on it. I had been looking at GMC Acadia's, but we found this one and both really liked it and we both liked the price. So Happy Anniversary to me! :) I will try to take some pictures this week and post them for you all.

At my last Dr. appt I didn't pass the glucose test, it was too high. So yesterday I had to go and endure the 3 hour test. It was pretty boring but thank goodness I passed and I don't have Gestational Diabetes. For the record...I hate getting on the scale at the doctors office, enough said.

A few weeks ago I started with a rash on my bum and thighs (just in case you were wondering where it started! :) ) and it got worse and it spread and is now pretty much covering my entire body, all but my face. I had to go to a dermatologist Monday and he gave me some cream and some pills to take so hopefully it will subside soon because I am quite miserable. The Dermatologist said it is a rash from all the different hormones in me that my body isn't used to. When strangers look at my hands I am sure they get grossed out! I chose not to take pictures of this because I look quite disgusting. Yesterday Taylor said "Lynds, I am sorry to tell you this but this is really freaking me out!" If Taylor says that I am pretty sure I now look like and alien! :( On top of the hives I got a nasty cold.

Scott and Shellie are in Hawaii...I'm pretty jealous. So we have Tanner for the week. He's been good, I am sure he gets pretty bored because Taylor and I don't do too much. We might take him out to dinner tonight if Taylor gets off fairly early. (YAY!! NO COOKING AND NO DISHES!!)

The basement is coming along. I will try to take some pictures this weekend. we don't have any light fixtures up right now so there are no lights down there and I am only home at night lately. So when I am home there is no night at all down there to take any pictures. The things we have left to do downstairs are:
Paint
Light fixtures
Have cabinets put in
tile bathroom
Carpet
and...somehow save enough money to furnish the basement! We will just do a little at a time i am sure.

We go in for another ultrasound next wednesday. I love getting to see her. I bought her crib bedding last week and ordered her crib this week. I'm getting so excited! I am so curious to see who she will look more like! And I hope she doesn't have my ears! :) And Tay hopes she does!

This is probably my most random post so far since I have been blogging! I hope you are all doing great!

Moving belly...

I haven't blogged in quite a while. I still haven't gotten the ultrasound pictures downloaded to the computer. Mostly because I am feeling lazy. :) But I wanted to write this down so I don't forget...this weekend I was taking a bath and I got to watch my stomach move! I have been able to feel her for a few weeks now but it was awesome to watch her kick rather than just feeling it! Taylor is very anxious for her to get here! He just wants her here now. I tell him every day "but she is so much easier to take care of in my belly!" I really am very excited though!

Taylor and Scott have been working on the basement it's all framed and it is starting to get some character already! I can't wait to have that finished so I can move the office downstairs and work on the nursery. Tate ,our dog, hates the staple gun so he jumps on my lap everytime it goes off! If I am not sitting so he can jump on me he will go hide in the closet. It's quite comical. So much for a guard dog, huh!

This weekend we are heading to Utah with our friends, Coleman and Randi, to look for some cars and go to Frightmare's (Randi and i won't be going on many rides). It will be a nice little getaway for us. We went to dinner and mini golfing this weekend with them and had some fun. I am sure it will be just as fun this weekend.

My sister, Rachel, has 7 weeks left. well it might actually be 6 now, but we are so excited. Her pregnancy went be so fast (too me alteast, if you ask her it's been far too long). We are excited to finally meet her little boy!!

What are all your opinions on the swine flu shot? My Dr. is telling me to get one. There are so many risks of getting one and so many for not getting one as a pregnant woman. What are all of you doing? I am going through hand sanitizer like a mad woman and thanks to HOLLY I will be using the mini Lysol too!

Hope you all have a great week! When I get out of my laziness I will download the pictures from the ultrasounds.

4th of July weekend...

I haven't blogged in a while, I haven't been feeling to well. But I thought I would post about the stupid things that happened to me this weekend.

Taylor finally had a few days off we could spend together, so I thought. He and his dad decided to work instead. They can NEVER take some time off. It has its pros and cons I guess.

Saturday we slept in and we to breakfast. I couldn't remember the last time we did that so that was fun. Then we went a looked at Patio furniture since all we have out back are some chairs. We didn't find much though. Then Taylor and Scott prepped the side of the house for concrete, which I am not happy about incase you wanted to know. So I went shopping with grandma and it was so fun. I found some great deals. I got a super cute purse and then some super cute shoes for a great price. Then we went and ate at Grandma Morrow's and also went to Grandma Bonnie's for a BBQ too. Lots of food that day. After we ate i decided that I needed to change into pants because it was kinda chilly. (I am ALWAYS cold) So we came home and I had my cell phone in my pocket and I went into the bathroom and my phone fell out of my pants and into the toilet! SICK. Yes I had to put MY HAND IN THE TOILET! Good thing I hadn't gone to the bathroom yet! So I have lost everyone's numbers. So e mail them to me ... Lyndsi_lou88@hotmail.com if you don't want to leave them on here!! Luckily Shellie just got a new phone so she is letting me use hers for a few days until I can go get my new one. Then we went to the fireworks and came home.

Sunday Jason, Rachel, Chris and I headed to Boise to go visit my mom for a quick trip. When we got to Blackfoot I looked down and my main diamond in my wedding ring was GONE! I was sick to my stomach. I hadn't hit it on anything and I know when I left my house that it was there! I tore apart the car trying to find it. My grandma checked where I was at her house. Chris's parents checked their driveway and my grandpa even went and checked Maverick where i filled up with gas. We had no luck finding it. Today I took it in and Richard at Ingram's is like my 2nd father and they replaced it for me. I was thankful. Taylor would have killed me if he would have had to pay for another one! Needless to say it was added to our home owners insurance today!

We came back from Boise late last night. It was a quick trip but it was good to see mom. We did some shopping while the boys golfed.

Today Rachel and Chris found out they are having a little boy! We are excited for them. Congrats guys! We can't wait to meet him!

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!

Its been a super long time since I have posted. So I thought I would take some time and post pictures of the house. I have completely loved having a house. I do feel very fortunate to have a house. Taylor and Scott did a wonderful job. (I did a good job helping with the tile and telling them what they were doing wrong :D ).
I will get it all decorated SOMEDAY. I hope that day comes soon. Sorry it is pretty messy as you can tell from the pictures.

It has been a while

So it has been a while since I have made a post. This post won't have pictures because I can't find my camera cord...we will be moving in the next week or two, so hopefully I will find it then.

Christmas was great. Our first Christmas together was a little different, but it was great. It is harder now that we are married to get around to everyone's houses that we need to go to. But we managed. I am so grateful for the Christmas Season and to celebrate the birth of Christ and all he did for us. It's such a wonderful time of the year.

New Years we had a great time. My family always goes up to island park and we go snowmachining. We got snowed in this year. Four-five foot drifts over the driveway. My brother in law, Chris, was suppose to leave early so he could get to work but since we were snowed in he didn't make it to work. The wind blew really hard most of them time so we were in doors playing games quite a bit. When i find my camera cord, I will post lots of fun pictures from that.

I also got to got to dinner with Missy and Jess last week. It was so good to see them. I miss them. We are all so busy we don't get together much. Hopefully we can change that. Missy brought Jacoby...cutest little boy. I would keep him if she would let me. Then we went out and checked out our house in a blizzard. The weather was bad that night. Missy got stuck in the driveway and we laughed so hard. Good thing Scott (Taylor's dad) was at the house to help her get unstuck. It was a good laugh for us all.

This weekend we tiled the house. Well I really shouldn't say we...I handed them tiles and cleaned the grout spaces...I know, you don't even have to tell me I worked too hard. I know I did. haha. Scott and David (Taylors Uncle) did a great job. We are grouting it tonight. I am not looking forward to that. I will actually have to do some work. :)

Well hopefully the next post will have some pictures!
