Baby Lipton's Godmother

Baby Lipton's Godmother is, of course, Erin.
She sent him his first present from her today!

First we have - yes, that's right...
PeePee TeePees. "for the sprinkling weewee".
Too fun for words.

Then a sweet card, an excellent elephant box
that USPS does not approve, and a Capricorn
onesie that says "loves to organize". Obviously
perfect for our child.

And the coveted Lamb from baby Gap! For
the anticipated Lambie nursery. It is so soft.

I had to have a serious talk with Taylor after the
puppy from grandma and the Lamb came into the
house today. Baby toys vs. puppy toys... I think
she got it. I just don't think she cares! :)














Spoiling by Grandma...

Grandma bought him the softest hooded towel today
at Rock A Bye Baby. Also, now he will have a puppy
of his own!

Bare belly shots are no longer necessary to show that
the tummy is growing! It becomes more obvious every
week!

Presents for Baby Boy Lipton

Grandma and Grandpa bought him his first two outfits!

The one on the left is from Neiman Marcus (spoiled already)
and the one on the right is Ralph Lauren (more spoiling)!
















Next came two more outfits from Aunt Lili and Uncle Adam.


The one on the left is the cutest baseball outfit that was
picked out with Nate in mind. The one on the right is a
blue and brown puppy dog set picked out with Jen &
Taylor in mind! Something for the whole family!


















And I finally bought something. Those of you who know how
afraid I am of non-neutral colors and characters understand
why this took so long :) It says "daddy loves me".

It's a . . .

BOY! All those who voted "boy" in the poll were correct!

It was VERY obvious :)

The ultrasound technician said everything looked great
and that we have a very active baby. He was moving all
around the entire time we were in there.

Here's the 20 week ultrasound:

Maternity clothes?: Jeans, definitely. Everything else still works for now.
Stretch marks?: None so far...
Sleep?: Sleeping pretty well, still halfway on my stomach.
Movement?: Since week 17, I've been feeling movement. Seems like tosses and turns but they are getting stronger every day.
