Guesses??

So, the other day we were at Home Depot getting some stuff for Asher's room. Ryan went to find somebody to help us. While I was waiting for him to come back this old black lady walked by me and stopped. She said "You're having a boy aren't you?" I told her I was which she then responded "he'll be 8 1/2 lbs. I know these things. I just know these things." Then she walked away. I think I just had a stunned look on my face considering I had no idea who this lady was, but we thought it would be fun if people we actually knew made some predictions. So, how big do you think Asher is going to be??

Missing in Action...

Well, we haven't updated our blog in quite a while, but we do have an excuse. Our labtop has decided to stop turning on so we dragged the old desktop out of the closet and luckily it still worked! (thanks mom and dad for getting me this in college!) So, for a pregnant lady this is not the best set-up.

but it will have to do until we can figure out how to get the internet router connected in the other room that has a table. Here is what we have been up to the past few weeks:

1. Ryan cleaned out the garage so we can actually walk around my car. He admires his work everytime we go to leave.



2. We got Asher some more clothes and are pretty set until after the shower to see what we still need. Now if only he had a dresser to put them all in.

3. Picked out some paint colors for Asher's room. We'll post some pics when it is all done.

4. Spent days- okay about a week - making the Great to Be Eight booklets for our primary. The kids loved them so it was worth it even if we did break 3 different hole punchers trying to put them together.

5. Making beanbags for my last sharing time of the month (which was a big hit) on my grandmother's 44 year old sewing machine. Ryan didn't think it would still work, but if you knew my Grandma Ashe you wouldn't even doubt it was in perfect condition. And if you know my sewing abilities you would be laughing as hard as I was at the thought of me sitting down to sew something!

6. Stake basketball games. Ryan decided he needed a headband for basketball and I knew you would all want to see him with it!

"Surf" Report

Although baby Reed will always be "Surf" to Ryan and my dad, he finally has an official name. His name will be Asher Ryan Reed. We can't wait to meet him!!! I also realized that we have no clothes for him so I went a little crazy at Gymboree today, but got some really cute clothes and some really good deals. I'll have to post a picture of all his new clothes.
