Best moment this week: 
sharing baby's first photos with everyone! I swear we have the cutest baby :) At the ultrasound last Thursday the technician said the due date may be changed to MAY 1st. She was giggling saying she was getting some cute pics of our lil one. I could not believe how much detail there is! Bought my first baby purchase.. a crib! I had been eyeing a certain crib at Sears, watching for it to go on sale and they had it on clearance at Walmart (score!) for $100 off! I am excited to put it together. Now I am watching for the change table to go on sale.
