Baby Anderson

I finally get to spill the beans . . . We are having a Baby Girl!! Words cannot describe how excited we are. The name we have picked out is Eleanor "Ellie" Ann Anderson. She should be making her debut around January 22, 2012.

Top Ten Things I Have Learned While Being Pregnant

10. Waterproof mascara is my best friend.
9. I am never going to be able to decide on a diaper bag. Or at least not just one.
8. Charcoal and garlic are two of the most horrible smells I have ever encountered.
7. Forgetting things on a regular basis is a real pregnancy symptom.
6. Growing placenta is a very unpleasant experience.
5. I don't think I am ever going to feel rested again.
4. Seeing my baby on the ultrasound for the first time is unlike any other thing I have experienced.
3. I can use the pregnancy excuse to get out of doing almost anything. (Of course, I don't)
2. I never thought I could be so excited and so terrified all at the same time.
1. I have the most amazing, loving, patient, selfless husband in the entire world!

Any advice you mother's have I am more than willing to take!
