Wiggle my ears and tickle my toes...!

One of my favorite parts from the classic Christmas movie "Santa Clause is coming to town" is the scene when the elves find a baby on the doorstep.

Dingle: Wiggle my ears and tickle my toes, methinks I see a baby's nose! It's more than a nose. There's a whole baby attached to it. Better call my brothers! Wingle! Bingle! Tingle! Zingle!
Zingle: What is it, Dingle?
Wingle: It's a baby, Zingle.
Tingle: A baby
what, Wingle?
Bingle: A baby baby, Tingle.
Dingle: I like babies, Bingle.
Bingle: Our baby's the best baby of them all, Wingle.

Not only do I completely adore all of the rhyming elf names (don't worry I promise not to name our children in a similar rhyming fashion...if you're not an elf it kind of loses its adorable and charming appeal...and it's just kind of cheesy and lame.) but I also kind of feel a kind of bond with the "ingle" brothers as I currently share some similar feelings with them. You see, as I am only 9.5 weeks pregnant and don't have the bulging belly and the constant kicking and not even any morning sickness to speak of yet (cross your fingers...knock on wood..etc.) It's hard to grasp the fact that there is actually a baby baby inside of me! And as you can tell from the ultrasound pictures below...it's hard to make out any kind of a nose let alone the rest of the baby that is attached to it! But, I like babies and just like Bingle thought of the young Kris Kringle...Steven and I believe that our baby is the best baby of them all! :)





Told you so...

hahahaHA...well I sure showed Steven didn't I...it's been a whole 2 years 4 months since our last post, which I feel is good enough proof that I did not, in fact, become an addicted blogger. But I feel like it would of been beneficial if I HAD become at least slightly addicted because now here we are, two (and almost a half) years later... we just celebrated our second wedding anniversary yesterday, we live in Las Vegas and we just found out last month (on mother's day no less) that we are having a baby :) and we have close to NO record of all of our adventures (and I do mean adventures)! So, I have made it a personal goal to attempt to *drumroll* not only blog our current doings BUT also record some snip-its from the last two years. And if I don't blog AT LEAST once a week then I promise to......try again the next week (how's that for public accountability, eh?). :)

Stay tuned for all the baby buzz!
