Progress on Jackson's room!
I have always wanted a rocking chair in the babies room. But not just a rocking chair but a big comfy chair. I have had a hard time finding one that I liked that was not super over priced. I was thrilled when this one caught my eye! It's so simple but so perfect!

Utah Trip
Ryan and I had a great time in Utah with his family over the 24th of July.
After a day of airport appreciation...
...we flew into Grand Junction and Brent drove the 4 hours to pick us up that night. It was a long and tiring day but we made it and were thrilled to be there.
We spent Saturday in Park City shopping and eating and mostly enjoying the cool weather. It was nice to have a small break from the Texas heat and humidity.
We had to pick up this cute fork for baby Jackson!!
The next few days we relaxed, celebrated the 24th with a parade and lunch at Grandma Scotts, and caught up with the family. It is always fun to see the nieces and nephews!!
Alec came up to hang out with his friends and we had spent out time outside at the parks, pools and movie theaters. Alec is a rock star in Utah and has won the love of everyone. It's not hard for the dude...he is so good looking and very manly!! ;)
My biggest surprise was the baby shower Ryan's family pulled off. It was a complete surprise and I had no idea it was even in the works. We were "going to dinner" and I was excited about that! When Ryan and I got back to his parent house I walked in the door to his mom and sisters, aunts and grandma!! I was slightly confused but caught on fast. The party moved downstairs to the basement and guests started to arrive. I was super shocked when my mom walked in the door and had flown in from Texas to join the party!! She came with my grandma George, aunt Melissa, "ant" Nikki and some of my cousins!! So much love and support!
I still can't believe how well they pulled it off! I am so blessed with such a wonderful family and appreciate all they do for me. We went home with two extra suitcases full of clothes, blankets and toys for baby Jackson. It was a wonderful surprise!!
We had cake balls galore!! Haley and Alys went slightly overboard but boy were they good!!
Darling diaper cake made by Alys!
Morning flew in that morning and brought the delicious box of macaroons all the way from NYC!! Yum
Diane found this darling baby book for Jackson! It's perfect:) Gracie was my helper opening gifts...she is the cutest!
Mr. Sock T. Pus! Such a cute idea! Thanks Jensens:)
My cousin Kristine came and made Jackson his very own aviator hat and goggles!! I can't wait to put them on him! Such a crackup!!
Needless to say we are spoiled rotten! It was a great trip with great memories!!

Boy or Girl??
What a week it has been. The first of the month we went in to see our dr. and he told us to schedule our sonogram for four weeks out. He said to bring a DVD because they would be able to tell us if we were having baby Kate or baby Jackson!! Oh boy was I excited!!! I have a really hard time waiting for things (Ryan will tell you that!) it was ten times worse then waiting for Christmas morning.
Everyone I talked to said "oh that's too early". "How will they be able to tell?" "Who is your dr?" I started to second guess this whole sono thing and was trying not to get my hopes up, but it was too late...they were through the roof!
The morning came and our appointments was at 9:30. Taking the advice of all I had a glass of orange juice with breakfast, a bottle of water and a large coke from McDonald's on our way to the office. This baby was going to be dancing if I had anything to say about it!
Some say it helps to have a full bladder so I thought why not?
Well I found out why not when the lady at the desk let us know they were running just a few minutes behind. She said about 25 to 30 to 45 minutes. Whatever that means. So we waited. And not very patiently either...I was dying.
Well an hour later we were called back and the sono tech asked why we were there. "it's probably too early to see the sex but I will take my best look". WHAT? I was about in tears but there was not much we could do. After only a few short minutes she had evidence! IT'S A BOY!!!
We were thrilled! Ryan even did a little dance in his chair!! A moment I hope to never forget. She has not been wrong in 15 years of work and I would say that's a pretty good track record so we will go with it!
It was party time! We had the family over and everyone had to choose team girl or team boy with a bow tie or lips. Brooke made cupcakes and while she ran to the store I filled them with blue! My mom and dad took the first big bite. It was a great way to celebrate!
Baby Jackson Ryan will join us in December!!!

Ryan was excited to start this project...just check out the cheesy grin!! So cute:)
Lunch break!
Ready for paint...
Painted!! Piper was a great help!! We just love how it turned out and now I am ready to get the room painted and furnished.

Baby Dunstan...Coming December 2012!!
I guess it's time we make it official! Baby Dunstan will be here in December and we could not be more thrilled! I am 13 weeks along and can't believe I'm almost out of my first trimester.
I do feel pretty lucky and have been feeling great!! No morning sickness, no fatigue and no major mood swings. (Ryan might tell you something different!). I was partly expecting to feel fine knowing my mom was never sick, but boy I am glad to feel good!!
I had a suspicion that I might be pregnant and took three test that all came back negative. One day while hanging out with my mom she kept teasing me about having a baby. Then...while I was there, Brent (my father in law) called and made a comment about it so I thought what the heck, I'll give it one more try. I was expecting it to come back negative but I was wrong and didn't know what to do. Ryan was flying and I felt bad he was not there so I decided to come up with a creative way to tell him he was going to be a dad. I made this little package and put it in his dresser drawer. I followed him around like a puppy dog until he opened it and saw!! We are so excited:)
We get to have our second ultrasound on the 25th and our doctor is optimistic they will be able to tell us if it's a boy or a girl!! It has been hard to wait for this appointment. I was not expecting it to be so soon but as soon as he said schedule it, time has started to creep by. The Chinese Calendar predicts it will be a boy but most of the family says it's a girl. Only one way to find out:)
I could not wait to make my first purchase for the baby and because I don't know if it's a boy or girl I had to buy some of each!! Brooke and I hit up a great sale a Carter's and I could hardly stop myself. I have gone through the bags a number of times and going though the girl things I think to myself, "oh I hope it's a girl I don't want to return these darling things". Then I go through the boy clothes and I have the exact same thought! We will be thrilled wither way!
Boy clothes!
Girl clothes! Cute stuff right??
Ryan is so excited and has so many projects to get working on! We want the baby's room to have wainscoting and if that were not a project the bathroom needs a facelift and the crib is what Ryan is most excited about!! He is so handy to have around.
