I tried to post these videos on my blog, but I think they were too large, so I had to upload them to YouTube and just post the link. They are too funny, they make us laugh every time we watch! I am so glad I was able to get him on video. I'm sure he'll love to see it someday :) Sorry the lighting is a little off, I'm usually laying on the couch when he is his most rambunctious!

It's official...
Well, it's official...our baby boy will be named Easton Raine. I imagine that most of you already knew that because we have been pretty set on Easton to begin with, but I just wanted to make the official announcement. We have been calling him Easton for a few weeks now and we just think it's perfect for this RAMBUNCTIOUS little boy growing inside of me! He is quite strong right now and last week I was laying on the couch and I could have sworn he was doing somersaults for about 45 minutes, unfortunately Raine was in SC for the day but I was able to catch it on video! It's too large to upload from my phone so I will have to see if Raine can figure out how to get it uploaded, because it is pretty amazing to see!
There isn't a whole lot to report this week. I have been gathering things for the nursery but nothing else is done yet, so I will post some pictures after I finish a few projects I have in mind! My next mission is to find a glider/ottoman, crib mattress, rug, curtains...and much much more! My next appointment is July 5, where I will have to take my Glucose Challenge test to see if have Gestational Diabetes. Also, it will be the first week of the 3rd Trimester...I can't believe it, it's going by too fast!

We've been BUSY!
Sorry I didn't get around to posting anything last week...it's been a busy couple of weeks and we were in Dallas celebrating my brother's wedding for the majority of it. This little boy is growing and has become A LOT more active! It's so fun and slightly crazy to sit and watch my stomach move on it's own...I can only imagine the movement as he gets bigger and stronger!
Here are a few pictures from the wedding in Dallas. It was very beautiful wedding and I am so glad we were there to celebrate such a beautiful couple! We stayed with some of our oldest friends, The Daniels Family, and had such a wonderful time! It was sad to say goodbye to friends and family!
While we were in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area we just had to head over to the Stockyards one day to revisit where Raine and I met for the first time. My sister and brother-in-law had never been to this part of Ft. Worth and they loved it! There are definitely some characters around town...the Stockyards are filled with Bikers, Cowboys, and one Indian.
We had so much fun revisiting that whole place, it's somewhere we will always hold special in our hearts!
This past week/weekend, the bedding for the Nursery arrived and we painted the room! It looks great, I LOVE how it is turning out, the color is so bright and perfect, it's exactly what I wanted! I still have quite a ways to go, but now I can start brainstorming and executing some wall art and stuff that I have planned for the room!
And then last Saturday we went out to a nice dinner to celebrate our 2 year Anniversary, which is actually today! We decided to try a place called PRIME, which didn't turn out the be the best meal every, but at least we had good company! Unfortunately our waiter's photography skills weren't the greatest and this is was the best picture that we ended up with...and it's the best of 3...so you can imagine the others!
So as I said at the beginning, we've been busy! The summer months are looking to be just as busy and exciting right up until the baby is born! Also, some of you were asking about my registry...I started one at Buy Buy Baby (buybuybaby.com) that has quite a bit of stuff on it, but I keep adding to it daily. And I will probably also register at Babies R' Us because I know that Buy Buy Baby's are not in many cities!
I have my 24 week appointment tomorrow morning, so we are praying that Baby Cotton is still perfect and right on track for delivery in September! xo

The detail of the bedding is hard to see but here is a picture of the whole ensemble from the Internet...
