It's a........

BOY!!! We are SO excited. I've been feeling a few little kicks lately and during the ultrasound the little guy was punching his arms and moving around constantly. It was so fun to see what's causing the little kicks. His little fingers and toes are so cute! So we've got a Ty Jr. on the way!

After the appointment I met Betsy at a department store and wouldn't tell her if it was a boy or girl until she picked out her favorite girl and boy outfit. Then we took them both to the register and she didn't find out until the last second when I only bought the blue one! It was so fun.


Betsy obviously thought it was a girl because she's pointing with confidence at the pink outfit

Almost everyone guessed that it was a girl (including Tyler), but for the record, I thought it was a boy.
My belly is growing like crazy now. In the time that Nanette was here, I really think it almost doubled in size. All the pictures I have I'm wearing a coat, so I'll have to take one without a coat and post it.

Auntie Nan

For Nanette's birthday, Jared surprised her with a ticket to London!! We had the best time together. She just left early this morning and I'm already having withdrawls. I hadn't seen her since OCTOBER, that is a really long time after spending every waking moment with her since I was 12.

I only have a few pictures because we took her camera everywhere, so you'll have to check her blog for the rest of the pictures- or I'll probably add more when she emails them to me. I miss her already.


The domestic diva in the kitchen making a DELICIOUS breakfast for us

We had to take a picture of these raspberries we got at the market because they were so cheap and yummy!

We debated about whether or not we should get this crepe at Portobello road because it was totally overpriced, but it looked so good we couldn't resist. Buying this might have been the best decision of the whole weekend, it was soooo amazing. It had strawberries in it and nutella warmed in a crock pot.

As you can see, by the end of it we were just shoveling it into our mouths....worth every penny. I'm eating for two though, I don't know what Nan's excuse was :)

Nanette and Jared have the same birthday, so I think it's only fair if she buys tickets for both of them to come back next year for his birthday.

Thanks for the best week Nanette!!

Because I love Whitney so much I am going to do this tag. Also, if you want to see a picture of the cutest 35 week prego girl, go to her blog.

What is your husband's name? Tyler Otis

2.Who eats more? I would say we're pretty equal

3. Who said I love you first? In Costa Rica, after dating 9 months, he said, 'I think I love you' then something about how he doesn't know how you 'quantify love'. I just laughed and said ' I know I love you'. So basically I said it first

4. Who is taller? Ty

5. Who is smarter? people say he is...I beg to differ

21. Who asked who out first? Ty took me to Finding Nemo at the dollar theatre...big spender

Missing the Maxfields already

We've had such a fun time with Heidi, Matt and Owen this past week during their visit
All snuggled up watching conference on the couch/guest bed
Ty and Owen really bonded- Owen would always just stare at him, it was so cute

On Saturday we took a train Brighton on the coast
Heidi was so proud she was the highest- this is after having 'High Tea' at Kensington Palace
We didn't have alot of walking room. Heid and Matt were good sports for having absolutely no space for their stuff
Bath time in our kitchen sink


They came to work with me one day. Alex and Theo, the boys I nanny LOVED Owen
