Rebate on our Stroller!

So, I was browsing through some consumer reports and stumbled upon the Chicco-USA website. The stroller James and I just registered for is a Chicco Cortina Travel System, and has a $35 rebate offer on it through the end of this month. I wish I would have seen it sooner, but wanted to make sure I got the word out to everyone! I know I can appreciate saving money where I can and by the way I am not suggesting that everyone run out and buy us a stroller! I just thought if you already purchased it or planned on doing so for Christmas or something you can save an additional $35. Also, a little birdie told me that Babies "R" Us may be having a black Friday sale... could you imagine getting it on sale and a rebate on top of that?! That is my kind of deal!

*REBATE* the rebate form is highlighted to show you the valid purchase dates as well as the Stroller UPC code.

I Think I'm In Love!

All I can think about is my little baby Wyatt growing in my belly, even with all the stress of moving! He has definitely made his presence known by kicking everyday. They get really hard as I am settling in for bed, go figure! I am really hoping and praying that everyone will be able to feel my baby move when we are home for Thanksgiving. I was able to actually see it through my belly (once), it definitely caught me off guard. I am still trying to decipher between; kicks, elbows, nudges and fists. I am pretty sure the harder ones are kicks! Perhaps as I get further along I will be able to tell. Cross your fingers for a very active WYATT over Thanksgiving!

The Ellison Family 2008


James and I had our pictures taken at SEARS portrait studio... the discount was quite nice! These are the first professional pictures that we have had since we've been married. It was a lot of fun and we are glad we got some belly shots. I sent out the link to view our photos online to most of you; however if you did not receive it and would like to see them all or would like to order any let me know. PLEASE do not order online at that website, I can send you the digital picture and you can have it printed on Shutterfly or some similar website for only cents a sheet rather than $14!

Baby Registry

We have finally created a registry for Baby Wyatt! We had a lot of fun doing it too (regardless of what James might say)! For all of you wondering what I may want or need for Christmas... here it is. There is nothing else that I want; other than to win the lottery, for christmas this year!

The majority of our registry will be at Babies "R" Us we also have a few things at Target and have registred for the crib bedding at Land of Nod.

"Thats a Boy if I've ever seen one!"

YAY!! We are definitely expecting a bouncing baby boy in mid-March... and I do mean bouncing! He was moving around so much it took the tech almost a full hour to take all the measurements she was after! (I promise, no caffeine since I've been pregnant.) Based on Wyatt's size, 13 oz, she gave me a due date of 21 MAR a few days before what my doctor said. She also mentioned most first time mom's don't carry to term so I think he'll be here close to my 18 MAR due date, I hope he doesn't come too early! Another really cute thing, James would be so proud, for the first 5 minutes the tech was fighting to get her measurements because he was moving around so much and kept showing off his "turtle", Like Father Like Son!
