Whats up with the name??

Once i heard 'Upside Down Pickle in a Jar' as a metaphor for a baby in a womb, and thought it was pretty fitting for our blog. This is for all the family and friends that Ben and I unfortunately dont get to speak to often. You can feel like you are here in all the action!

Houston, we have a walnut.

So Obviously baby Finn is the size of a walnut.  :)
First things first: My appointment. I don't want to go into too much detail on here about my experience, other than to say it was great, and the Dr says everything looks great. He scheduled me for an ultrasound and we will get to hear the heartbeat, so that's coming up soon. We went to tell Mom about it and then bought our first pack of diapers. Two actually, and some wipes :) I went to my Grandmothers house that night and she had bought diapers too.
Other than that, nothing has really been going on baby-wise. I'm still sick and tired, and I'm ten weeks. I have new literature to read from the Dr, and apparently Finn doesnt like zaxbys.
I had a few things come up with the small side business that I have, and I met with a couple to discuss wedding flowers this morning, and they are already finished and sitting on the table in front of me. Another girl came by to look at a sample I made up and it looks like I have that job too! Ben modeled them for me:



And then Mom and I found a pretty much amazing dresser that just needs to be gutted and we can add 2 shelves with baskets or bins for finns dresser. Good thing I have a grandaddy who's a woodworker. He also says he wants to make a toy box and a rocking horse.
The last few days have just been full of re-doing the house to make room for one piece of furniture. And if you know me, well...that's an all week event trying to get everything perfect. so here's a picture of where the cedar chest used to be. Now the white desk and frame are there. I like.
Lovely.
Well, until something else exciting happens.
