Ultrasound #3

Today Craig and I went back to get another ultrasound.  The baby was perfect and was laying just where the tech needed him/her to lay.  Sorry the picture is a little fuzzy, but I wanted to get a 3D of the baby's face.  At one point during the ultrasound, the baby looked like he/she was saluting.  It was PERFECT!  Craig and I are loving every minute of this!

20 weeks (5months)

Today Craig and I went for our 20 week check up and ultrasound.
The baby is growing healthy and completely normal.  We have to go back because the baby wouldn't  move so the technician could see the spine.  So I'm hoping that next time we can get a 3D photo of the little face :o).
We are so excited, words can't describe!

17 weeks

17 weeks and counting :o)
(Sorry for the angry face I was in deep concentration)
The baby bump is slowly emerging!




Ginger

On New Years Eve, while Craig was on duty, I drove to PA to pick up the new addition to the Skinner Family.  Her name is Ginger ;o)
She is a 6 month old full blood Basset Hound - she is potty trained as well as crate trained.  She has been a great addition to our family and now Daisy has a playmate!

**Sneak Peek** of the nursery

Craig and I wanted to give everyone a SNEAK peek of our nursery!  It is no where complete, but you can get the idea!  Since we are not finding out the sex of the baby, we had to choose a neutral theme.  We chose Dr. Seuss ABCs.  I can't wait till it is complete!  The colors turned out perfectly!  We are very pleased!
Put the crib together - thanks Dad!  We love it!

We got the window valance put up, so you can see the Dr. Seuss ABC theme :o)

Got the rocking chair put together - thanks Mom, it's perfect! Craig can't wait to use it :o)

Wreaths Across America

Today Craig and I got the honor and privilege to participate in the 20th Anniversary of Wreaths Across America. They had 85,000 wreaths to lay on the head stones, unfortunately they didn't get enough donations to get all the headstones.  Hopefully next year!  It was an amazing and humbling experience!


Beautiful sight
