Nursery 101

Making a nursery happen was not as hard as i thought!

I did not really have a favorite theme to use, so i thought i would first pick the bedding and then "build it around it"

Even though i am not nearly done, here are some pics of what we have so far. It turns out, it is quite fun to shop for baby decor! 

Where the magic happens :p

The Fab baby quilt

Here is Josh's corner, where he will be changing lots and lots of diapers :D

We have a dresser, although i have not really decorated this side of the room yet

I am thinking i am going to get a rocking chair for the right corner of the room :D

We also got our baby gear! YAY

The car seat

The pimp stroller, as my friend Charly put it when i showed it to her , which also has the most adorable bassinet , very vintage and cute!

And here is Josh's most precious possession to time

A Dadgear Bama Diaper Bag! 

Yup, he sure did!

More updates on this interior design project to come, 

 just don't expect to see many more Bama products on Baby Bogart's Room! 

(yes, i am a cruel censor! )

choices

I never thought having a baby involved so many trivial choices, 

like picking out a nursery, or making a baby registry, or even doing research on breast pumps! BLAH!

Our poor baby does not even have a name yet, because we are just too busy planning other stuff and working and going to school, and living! 

But i think its time to pick a name

at least we do have the last name figured out :)

One thing is for sure, this boy can kick up a storm!

Last night i was lying in bed and as usual, he started kicking late at night

i looked down to my belly and i saw my belly skin moving up from the kicks,

it was absolutely disturbing!! All i could think about was the scene from the movie Aliens where the little creatures start pocking out of peoples insides!

Baby Bogart's parents need to get on the job and pick a name already! :)

The naming game!

This is our baby

Our Nameless Baby at that.

Since we started looking at baby names, i had a head start

because i had this list from before i even met Josh with names i loved!

And there were quite a few names, for boys and girls.

We decided we were not gonna stress over it until we knew for sure the gender,

but we both loved one girl's name and we were pretty much set on using Clara Sabine if it was a girl

Of Course, too easy, we found out we are having a boy (hence the picture above)

So we are kind of lost on boys names, although we have a few we really love.

But hey, at least we picked a name for a girl, if we ever have one! so we are all set on that one :D

Right now all i know for sure is:

There will not be a Humphrey Bogart in this family!

Any ideas? :D

Choosing the one

I have been looking around for strollers, unfortunately no luck. But i remembered how much i liked my stroller i had as a child and how my sister had one too for my nieces, the same model and all.

You see, in Spain there is this brand that makes vintage carrycots and strollers

and I LOVE IT!

My sister informed me my niece's stroller and bassinet were in fab shape and it was mine if i wanted it or i could pick another one and her and brother in law would buy it for us!

Shipping could be a problem, but in my sis words :

"I will make it happen"

I knew she was my godmother for a reason :D
she is also going to be our baby's godmother
and i am godmother to both my nieces ;)
It's a vicious cycle :)

These are some pics of the models i like, more or less i just really love vintage style!



There are too many to choose from, so i guess i have a lot to decide!

In Josh's words:

"This is your department, so get it done"

What he really meant was:

"You are going to do whatever you want no matter what i say, so just do it."

;)

Love him! <3

Baby Bogart LIVE!

Baby Bogart's first 3D Ultrasound on video!

Amazed by technology!

18 weeks of baking :)

Today, we went to get a 3D Ultrasound! It was amazing! At just 18 weeks, the baby is so tiny, and yet the pictures have an amazing quality!

I have an alien in my belly

He/She smiles :)

He/She stretches

It looks so comfy in there!

I really wish they would have told us for sure if it's a girl or a boy!

At first the technician said it was a girl, FOR SURE. Then 5 minutes later she said it looked like a boy, she said and pointed this is a penis, but then added that the baby was "hiding the important parts" and could not be sure and what looked like a wee wee could be something else , because the baby is still so tiny :(

So i am not gonna start buying everything pink, or blue, just yet! We will wait a couple weeks and go back :) 

The korean technician kept poking and moving my belly saying "Baby, moving, Baby moving" in a cute voice so the baby would move the way we needed him to, but no, baby Bogart kept moving the other way back and forth. 

But one thing is for sure: We counted 10 fingers and 10 toes :) 

oh, dear cold

Why can't you leave me?

After all you have been plaguing my days for over a month now, 

don't you think it is time to move on?

I know i am quite the host

and that i have been nurturing as much as i can, due to my condition, 

but this is got to stop

you are no longer welcome!

You make me sick, literally, 

here is proof of what you make me look like 

And my nose, wow , really really hates you
