Week 25 Dec 5, 2008

Shane and I decided to take a quick getaway before our baby arrives. We had planned to go to Asia before but plans have changed now. So we took our 2nd best option and flew to Oahu, Hawaii instead. This trip was all about eating, sunbathing, snorkling and more eating.

I think I gained about 5 pounds in this week alone. Shane did as well and I don't think it was from sympathy pregnancy weight gain. :) It was all worth it though.

Here are some pictures from our trip.

Week 24 Nov 28, 2008

This week the baby has reached a whopping 1 pound weight gain. Pretty big compared to the small ounces he was gaining in prior weeks.

We finally registered at Babies R Us. It was kind of stressful because this is the first time Shane and I really shopped for baby things. It's like a whole new world out there! Also, there were so many selections and brands for everything; it was rather confusing. Thankfully, Shane's mom and sister offered to help us.

We found the perfect crib bedding set at babyuniverse.com. It's the Turtle Bay Bed set collection. Fortunately, it was on clearance because they were discontinuing this item. So we were able to order it for a huge discount and I believe it was the last one in stock! We also ordered the Twilight Turtle night light - it projects starry night sky onto the walls and ceiling.in the nursery. It's so cute! As you can see, everything will be turtle themed. :)
