Baby Stuff

Our Saturday was filled with the excitement of completing our baby registry.  We spent a good portion of the day between Babies R Us and Lone Star Baby walking wondrously up and down every aisle trying to figure out what we truly needed.  Several calls were made to friends and family to get their thoughts on what they liked best for their babies.  Registering for the baby items was exciting for Jimmy and I since we know our little girl will be using these items in a little over 3 months!!

Growing!!!

Now that we are at week 24 and the baby bump is clearly evident, we figured we should post some pictures for family and friends that live out of town and do not see us on a regular basis.

Her Name Is........

We have finally picked a name after many months of contemplation!!  And the name is.... Alyssa Kate Stanley.  The meaning behind the name Alyssa is of noble kind and Kate stands for pure. We are so excited and can't wait for baby "Allie" to arrive.  We had a very productive baby week.  In addition to deciding on a name, we also ordered the baby furniture and bedding.  As soon as we get the bedding in, next on the agenda will be selecting a paint color for her nursery.  We feel like we have made some progress but have a long way to go!!
