Ultrasound Day!

It's a girl!
I'm glad it's a girl because I was so worried that I would be momentarily disappointed.
She looks to be a beautiful and healthy little girl...which of course, is most important.
Her name has been changed from Pinhead to Allegra, it means "joyful". I was looking for a name than meant "peaceful", since Wyatt's name means "little warrior" and lately he's been living up to it. But I figured that joyful was a good sign! :)

There was one piece of bad news, that, if I'm being honest, put a damper on my day. The placenta is too low and if it doesn't move up naturally I will have to schedule a C-section. My doctor said that in my case only about 5% don't fix themselves. But, I have to wait for 9 weeks though to see if it has moved up on it's own. Until then, I have to really take it easy, or I run the risk of being put on bed-rest. I want to avoid bed-rest at ALL costs, especially with a busy 3 1/2 yr old running around.

I really thought it was a girl, really, but I was doubting my instincts.
The ultra-sound tech and my doctor (on seperate occasions) said that it looked like she was picking her nose.

Like brother like sister I suppose!

* TIME'S UP * Product Review & GIVEAWAY!!!

*Time's Up winner will be announced tomorrow! Good luck everyone*

About 2 weeks ago, I was contacted by Katie at Stonyfield Farm and asked if I would like to do a product review and giveaway on my blog.
Yes Please!
The product is "Yo Baby Organic Whole Milk Yogurt".
I know that I don't have a baby anymore (outside of the womb), my little guy is 3 and a half. However, I still like to give him whole milk products because it's good for brain development. And actually, I did give him this product when he was a babe.
I'll be honest, I'm not a hard and fast purchaser of organic products. However, I do know that there are great benefits to organic over non-organic products.
Wyatt can be somewhat picky at times, so I think I'll let the pictures do the talking.




As you can see, he completely devoured this pear yogurt. I didn't have to coax, like usual, he just shoveled it in, bite after bite. It was wonderful. I'm so glad that I've been re-introduced to this product, and now I'd like to introduce it to you.

The giveaway is for a YoBaby bowl with lid, an organic YoBaby bib, and a bundle of 5 coupons for free YoBaby organic yogurt. That's 5 of these sweet little 6 packs for FREE!! (when I went to pick up mine at Fred Meyer they were $3.99)

(I have no idea why this picture is looking like a negative, but you get the picture)

Tell Me About...

..._____________!

Wyatt officially entered the question phase about a month ago.
It all started with a trip to the beach. The water heater went out and daddy and papa spent a good part of the day replacing it. All this hubbub fascinated him. He couldn't help himself, even when told not to "go in there", he kept finding himself right in the middle of all the action. When everything was all said and done, he kept wanting to go in and look at the water heater. A while later, we were talking in the morning and he asked me to "tell him about the water heater". So, I told him what I could come up with, and then he asked to hear it again....and again...and again.
Then during that same time, he asked me to "tell him about the farm alarm" (fire alarm). So I told him that one again and again and again. So, I FINALLY told him that we needed to take a break and go have breakfast.

Lately he's been asking us to "tell him about the washer and dryer"

And for some time now, he's also had an obsession with cranes. He will spot them from a mile away. He's almost always right too. Even when I don't see it right away, if I look really hard, super far away, then I find it. One night, we didn't see any cranes while driving from 'here to there' and we had one disappointed little boy on our hands. So, instead I found him this video on YouTube:

"Hey Ma, I'm in the bag"
