We've Announced on Facebook....I Guess It's Official!

It's official!! We announced the arrival of Twig on Facebook. Maybe that's where you're coming from. I am so glad you're here to share in our journey to parenthood. Were both very excited, and slightly overwhelmed. Things I never really thought about before now consume my daily thoughts. And, don't even get me started on the baby registry....there's so many things one could purchase for baby, what do I really need? 

We took this picture on the trail behind our townhouse. I am so glad the twig the onesie is hanging from shows up, since our little one's nickname is twig...ya know.....twig--branch....hahaha. My dad was so sweet to take these pictures! Even my mom came along. She's so excited, and it's really special to include her in on the baby's progress. She actually bought this little onesie for our shoot. We chose yellow because obviously, we don't know the gender....won't find out for at least another six weeks, but it is kinda fun not knowing.
We also created another announcement as a second option....I thought it was pretty funny! Although, I don't think Scott would ever sell his Xbox (we use it too much), he's already writing his letter to Santa for an Xbox One come Christmas time. Still, I thought this was a super cute idea, and it reminds me to stay healthy and fit so I don't have to say goodbye to my cute bathing suit. 

Thanks for stopping by! If you have any recommendations on must-have baby items, comment below and let me know, I'd love to have professional moms chime in!
