It's a Boy!

Two weekends ago, we found out that Carrie and Chris are having a boy! Mom, Charlotte, and I went to Austin to visit and do some shopping for the baby. They had their sonogram Friday morning as we were driving, and she didn't tell us what the baby was until we got there! The suspense was killing us! But now we know, and we are so happy for them!  On Friday afternoon, we went to several stores to buy some cute baby boy things and then we relaxed at home and talked about how she was going to decorate the nursery.

On Saturday, we got a ton of shopping in! We went to Hobby Lobby first where Mom bought us some cute fall decorations and then we had lunch at The Cheesecake Factory. Carrie got Charlotte dressed and even fixed her hair...



I love her little curls!



Here we are at lunch.

And Charlotte slept through the whole thing!


After Hobby Lobby and lunch, we went to Gymboree and Janie and Jack where Carrie got so many cute things for the baby. Plus we went glider shopping and she found the perfect one! We were so happy because we were so productive that day! So we decided to reward ourselves with a pedicure! I was a little nervous about having Charlotte with us, but she just sat on Mama's lap the whole time. I don't know how relaxed mom was, but I was in Heaven!





Carrie and I both got flowers. I've never had one painted on before, but I love it!


Charlotte loves her baby dolls! I brought several of hers for her to play with, but Auntie Carrie happened to have this one that she used for her "White Trash" party with her friends :) The doll is as big as Charlotte and she LOVED it!




Here are a few of the outfits Carrie got and a frame. The picture in the frame is of the baby looking straight at you.







And these are the Halloween pajamas Carrie got for Charlotte. She got some for Nathan too that are black with bones and an orange tie around the neck...so cute! Mom was trying to show Charlotte how to be "scary"



And here is Otis. The past few times that Charlotte has been around Otis and Daisy, she's been a little scared of them, but during this trip, she really warmed up to them! What's not to love?

We had such a good weekend! Now I can't wait to hold our sweet baby boy!
