This pic probably explains why I haven't been putting up the transfers myself. I know a lot of people get injured while participating in their favorite hobbies, such as motocross, running etc., but who knew scrapbooking could get you in the same pickle!?! On the way to the car to get some scrapbook supplies, I rolled my right ankle off the edge of the driveway and landed on my left knee cap and fractured it! Dr. says 4-6 weeks for healing, so at least I timed it ok - mommy will be all healed for Gracies's arrival:)
Jessica - or - FSIL (future sis in law), as I like to call her:) came to snuggle with me for the day:)
Gramma Tammy put up these awesome transfers for us! The big one was a bit of a challenge:)...we thought she was never getting out of the closet! She pulled it off wondyful though!!!
All Girls Are Princesses! This one's above her door outside her room:)
So... here are some pics of baby Gracies room!! I'll get some more up in a bit!!! it's been soooo much fun getting it ready!

We picked paint this weekend for the baby's room!!! Going with a couple different shades of PINK!!!! Surprise surprise:) Pics will be up soon - when daddy gets his paint brush out:) ...this weekend hopefully!!!
So keep in mind that this closet full of PINK happened the day of the ultrasound!!! Brad and I went shopping after, but we only contributed 3 of the outfits - we were a bit to frazzled to shop after the big news the rest of it is from an all too excited familia!!! This girl will not lack in style that's for sure!!!
Isn't she lovely?!!!! Gracie Leona Dennis!!! She weighed in at 11 ounces whicb the Dr. said was perfect & she looks healthy! We have another ultrasound in 2 weeks because she moved around a lot and they couldn't take good pics of her lil spine. She kicked the ultrasound tech the entire time:) Girl's got some 'tude! I love it!!!
Week 17: Onion - Who knew I'd ever love an onion so much!?!
Baby's skeleton is hardening, changing from rubbery cartilage to bone, and fat is finally accumulating around it. The umbilical cord is getting thicker and stronger, and those little fingers and toes are now topped by one-of-a-kind prints.
While most of your baby's organs are in place, he's still very thin and lanky. During week 17 your baby starts to form fat. This is vital for the baby's heat production and metabolism. You Did you feel that? It's 'round about this week that you might feel a light flutter (the quickening) as your baby's bones begin to harden enough to pack a punch on your uterus. If you haven't felt anything yet, no worries, ordinarily, women begin to feel their babies move by 20 weeks. Contact your doctor if you don't feel anything by then. Feed me! You may also have noticed an increase in your appetite as your baby gets bigger and hungrier. Eat when you're hungry, but don't slip into a feeding frenzy. Stick to your healthy diet; you've got a ways to go yet, and you don't want to pack on too much weight too quickly.
Things you should know about Harley... He's a lover not a fighter He's still a pup - about 2&1/2 and he's over 100lbs!....he thinks he's a lap dog He loves attention - any attention He makes a great pillow! He gets his way 99% of the time because he's the sweetest thing you've ever met! Bradley is his best friend, he adores him and vice versa.
Mia is the annoying lil sister he never wanted but loves anyway:) She brings out the spunk in him. He is LAZY!!!
Week 16: Avocado Posted Monday, July 09, 2007 4:25 PM Watch what you say... tiny bones forming in baby's ears mean the little one can now pick up your voice. Eyebrows, lashes and hair are starting to fill in, and taste buds are forming. And, if you're interested, an ultrasound might be able to determine gender.
16 WEEKS The fetus is about 4½ inches long and weighs about 4 ounces. The head is erect and the arms and legs are developed. The skin appears transparent. A fine layer of hair has begun to grow on the head. Limb movements become more coordinated.
Lunch Menu for the Pregnant Girl: Bean with Bacon Soup &....... a pickle! I opened the fridge and that pickle jar looked sooooooo good it was almost on the breakfast menu!
Week 15: Size of a Naval Orange !!!
Continuing the march towards normal proportions, baby's legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can't feel the movements. Your baby's crown-to-rump length is approximately 4 inches and she now weighs approximately 1.75 ounces. Your baby is close to the size of a softball and you can easily tell that you are pregnant now! If you wear maternity clothes or a swimming suit, other people will be able to tell that you are pregnant also. You can probably feel your uterus about three to four inches below your bellybutton. Your baby, 25 weeks to go..... Your baby is growing at an amazing rate and looking more like a human every day. Because your baby's skin is so thin, you are able to see blood vessels through the skin. Lanugo hair covers your baby's body, but it will be gone when your baby is born. The hair on the eyebrows and head continues to grow. Some babies are born with little or no hair and others have a head full of hair! If you have an ultrasound at this point, you might be able to see your baby sucking its thumb. Even though the eyes continue to move to the front of the face, they are still widely separated. Your baby's ears look like normal ears and continue to develop externally. The bones that have already formed continue to get harder and retain calcium. The baby is very mobile and flexible at this point. She can bend her arms at the elbows and wrists and she can also make a fist with her hands.

I feel really ripped off - just bought a bag of sour worms that isn't even sour!!! Dang knock offs!!!
Week 11: Size of a Lime!!! Posted Monday, July 09, 2007 4:14 PM Your fetus currently enjoys a 1:1 ratio between body and head, and has skin so transparent that blood vessels show right through. But, fingers and toes are no longer webbed, and hair follicles, tooth buds and nail beds are forming -- setting up a significantly more attractive future.

Bathing Beauty
This is lil miss Mia playing in her pool Grampa & Gramma bought her while they doggie sat last weekend! She loves the water... & yes, I do have a swim suit on her:) Harley uses it as a ginormous water dish - as long as Mia's not splashing around, he is terrified of water and runs if she's splashing! Kinda funny 'cause he's like a zillion times her size! Nerd:)
So.... I'm 7 weeks along and we couldn't be more excited! I figured this would be the perfect time to join my friends in blogging:) Our first dr's appt. is next Thursday - feels like it's taking forever!!! My due date is February 17th and my skinny jeans won't button already! Kinda crazy how you change so fast!
