And Baby makes THREE!

I am pregnant and over the moon with joy! I have never seen Daniel so excited- it is really fun to watch. I never imagined he would be so involved, but he is really into it! The rest of our family is really excited also (first grandbaby on both sides!) My little brother was confused at first, but upon hearing that that our sister would be an "aunt" he promptly declared "Oh, I cant wait until Courtney turns into an ant, I'm gonna squish her!!" His latest contribution to the name list is Lemony. "So that if yall have another one, it could be Limony." He says. Yea for the fruit family!

I am just starting to look at nursery stuff and I am overwhelmed at the ugly. I don't understand the whole "theme" thing. There was no "theme" at my wedding and there will be no "theme" in my nursery. Just simple, soothing and gender neutral. Something that begs you to touch it. Is that too much to ask?
Gender neutral- yes. We have decided to find out the sex. Not because I want to, but out of necessity, really. Nothing is gender neutral anymore. Everything is pink or blue- or duck yellow, and I don't want a house full of duck yellow. We would like to have more children and hopefully we will end up with boys and girls. I just think it's an awful waste not to be able to use the big stuff again and again. We are taking a gender poll. We thought it would be a landslide, but so far, it is pretty even! If you would like to contribute to the poll, leave a comment below! I am also having trouble deciding between an iron or wooden crib- there are pretty ones on both sides. Any suggestions? Wish me luck on the nursery search!
