My fabulous life as a mommy & wife :)

Hooray for nursery stuff :]

We're ordering our crib, changer, and glider for the nursery this week
And next week we're ordering our dresser :)

I absolutely cannot wait to get our stuff
(yes, of course I must get it express shipped)
And set it all up!
Originially I was in love with white furniture! And I still am, but decided to go with espresso.
I feel like that goes with our house & our furniture more. So that's what we decided to get.
I'm so in love with every single piece <3

Our 2 year wedding anniversary is in less than a month
September 8

so we've been discussing our anniversary and what we want to do.
Usually I like for Jamey to pick out my gift on his own, I think it's more special that way.. but this time I was pretty specific! I have a lot of ideas for the nursery and a sewing machine would help out temendously! I really want to make my own bedding. The bedding I love is in the 300-400 dollar price range and I'm not an expert sewer by any means.. but how hard can a bumper, a sheet, and a crib skirt really be? I've made a blanket and a pillow before so I have touched a sewing machine a time or two... but it's probably going to take tutorial after tutorial to get down what I want. But the plus will be a totally custom bedding set for 1/10 of the price! And eventually I'd love to learn how to make other things so I think a sewing machine would be perfect for all the ideas I have! :) So, stay tuned for what I'm sure will be a hilarious journey into my inner sewing genius ;)

Now just to convince the husband to get me it earlyyyy :P haha

In other news..
I got all my stuff switched with Tricare!
They started to be a huge pain in my butt when they assigned me to the clinic I specifically asked not to be assigned to and THEN tried to tell me I wouldn't get my first ultrasound until I was 17-18 weeks! Yeah right! Especially after our ER scare, I would like a follow up ultrasound... and not 10-11 weeks after the incident! I know we got to see that baby was perfectly ok that night.. but I just want to be sure everything is still moving in the right direction. Not to be a downer ... but if it's not or if I were to miscarry.. I wouldn't want to go 17-18 weeks thinking I was pregnant just to find out on my first ultrasound that something was wrong. I just think thats insane. So anywayysss.. I went to switch to tricare standard (which involves co-pays vs. totally free tricare prime) and after a tear or two I got ahold of an incredibly nice woman who assigned me to a doctor off post and kept me on tricare prime! So all is well and in order which is great! I did some doctor research because I still have to get a refferal from my new primary care dr. to whatever OB I want to see and I'm between two doctors I've gotten multiple recommendations from. So I scheduled a new patient consultation with both, hopefully I'll really connect with one and life will be smooth sailing from here on out :)

Well... the Sons of Anarchy seasons are playing so I'm off to watch with Jamey.
Hope everyone has a great night!
