And Baby Makes 3....

Clayton and I are expecting our first little one come the end of June. We found out I was pregnant on Halloween. Halloween has been a special day in the Braun family; it was my grandfather's birthday. I smiled a little bit more that we found out about our little one on such a special day. Here is a picture from when I was 9 weeks along. We used this picture to tell our family on Thanksgiving. We made little pictures that said Baby Harris and the due date with this ultrasound picture in the middle. Everyone was very excited; this will be the first grandbaby on each side and the first great grandbaby on Clayton's side.
 
At 12 weeks we went and did the 12 week screening at a high risk doctor in the same building as our normal doctor. Everything came back normal and that doctor had a 3-D ultrasound machine.

We were able to catch a glimpse at what our little one is going to look like. Kinda cool!






We just had our 17 week appointment. We were pretty excited because our doctor said that we should be able to see the sex by then. It took a while to get back but we were able to see what we are having. Looks like we will be graced with a little girl!

After the doctor told us she said not to paint or buy any clothes. She said it is still pretty early and when they are wrong it's when they guess a girl early and it turns out to be a boy. Clayton and I are pretty positive that it's not going to change but he is making me stick to the no buying things till we get our 20 week ultrasound. Our doctor said the sex will be confirmed then.


We are pretty excited and can't wait to start working on putting a nursery together.



Monster Jam

This weekend Clayton and I went to Monster Jam. I was listening to the morning show in 94.5 the Buzz and heard that they were selling discounted tickets. I quickly bought some tickets and surprised Clayton. We have talked about it in the past but both of us had never been. We met up with some friends to eat before and then headed to the show.









The pictures are not the greatest quality. I tried to charge the camera earlier in the day and either the battery or the charger died. So I tried to take some good pictures with my phone. The show was awesome and we really enjoyed it. We would probably go back if we had the opportunity.

ICE 2011

Over the Holidays Clayton and I went to ICE at the Gaylord Texan with his family. This has become a tradition and we have gone the last couple of years. This year the theme was Shrek the Halls. All the movies were incorporated which was pretty cool. It still amazes me that everything you see is made out of ice.

Before you can go into the tent with all the ice you go through a couple of rooms. These rooms are always decorated, this year there was a nice dream works center piece in one of the rooms.


Here are a couple pictures from the ICE experience.




Clayton and I haven't seen all the movies so we didn't know everything that had happened. It was nice being able to experience things from the new movies first hand and in Ice.




Every year there is a nativity scene at the end. Even though it doesn't change from year to year it is always my favorite part.



Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
