Items I want for this baby!

I have been spending many hours on the internet trying to figure out what we need/want for this new baby. We don't know what we are having yet but I will share this we find out very soon and I'm super excited!

I have found some great things but of course everything that I want is close to $200! Seriously, I feel like in just three years things have gotten so expensive! Maybe it's just my taste in things but oh well.

So here is the stroller I want! It's the Graco Ready2Go LX Stand and Ride stroller. It is amazing! It has 12 different positions that you can do. The pictures above show how I will probably have it the majority of the time. The reason I want this stroller is because I will have a 3 year old (Monkey), a one year old (Sophia, the little girl I watch several days a week), and the new baby. When I head out with all three of them this will be perfect because I can put Sophia in the front seat and the baby in the back seat and then Monkey can walk. But the best part is that the back seat comes off really easy so I can have a spot for Monkey if needed. I can just 'wear' the baby and then move the seat and now Monkey has somewhere to sit. Plus it has a huge basket underneath to hold all of our things that we would need. It seems like the perfect stroller for what we need! I'm so glad they released it this year! It's perfect!

Graco My Ride 65 Safety Surround Convertible Car Seat - Capri - Graco  - Babies"R"Us
This is the car seat that I found that I think I like the best for the price and it has good reviews. It is the Graco My Ride 65. We don't buy the infant carrier car seats. We normally just buy the all in one kind and go from there. It makes it a little hard if there is bad weather when they are very little, I experienced that with Monkey, but since this baby is due in July I'm not sure that I will have a problem with that.  I love this car seat because it has great safety reviews and parent reviews but also because it looks comfy and has cup holders. That is the one thing that I wish Monkey's car seat had. I also think that we will be able to use one of these cup holders for Monkey at least for a little while. We made sure it fit in the car and everything!

So I'm bummed out! The diaper bag, Bumble Jessica Messenger Bag, that I really wanted is sold out at Babies R Us! This is the one I want but I wanted the black and white one but since it's out of  stock I would have to chose a pink or blue one or wait and see if it comes back in stock. The reason I love this one is because it is big enough to carry all my cloth diapers and cloth wipes. Plus it has room to carry a change of clothes for Monkey and some toys. I also love it because of all the options it has. The messenger strap, the backpack strap, and the stroller straps! It is awesome. The only down fall is that it is only sold online and its not available for in store pick up. I love this bag and really hope that we will be able to get it for versatility it would give me when heading out with 2 or 3 kiddos.

Everything thing else we already have so I have a very short wish list. I love these items and hope that we will be able to get them all. What are you looking for when your new bundle of joy arrives? I would love to know!

Holiday Traditions?

I'm so excited to be co-hosting with Melissa! I have been a long time reader & finally got around to co-hosting! I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug

My Pregnancy Story with Monkey

So I have one of those crazy "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories. Yes I didn't know I was pregnant until I was pretty far along but I will get to that.  In May 2008 we picked up and moved out of state. At this time we had been completely off birth control for 2 years and nothing. We also found out when we first started trying that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)  which basically meant "good luck getting pregnant". We decided that we would start the adoption process if we were not pregnant by the time we were 30 so we had a few years (still do actually! Yeah God!) So we were just enjoying life in Oklahoma and enjoying the small town life. Every Sunday morning we would walk down the street and enjoy breakfast at Selena's, we'd sit on our front porch and talk with the neighbors, and visit family in town at least once a week. Starting close to October I started feeling like something was wrong with me so I went to the OU campus in Tu
