I am 16 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I had a dr. appt yesterday, finished lab work too. Doppler couldnt pick up a heartbeat so I had an ultrasound for determination of life. All is well! We think if its a girl, she will be Grace Elizabeth- and although hubby wrote his family telling them this, I am still open for something different. We need to nail down a boys name as well still, I have lots of time left.We decorated for Christmas already- lights inside and out, and put up our tree already. Looking forward to a quiet family dinner tomorrow. Last year, Hubby was in Iraq- so im thankful this year that he can be home with us for the holidays.Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Wal—Mart has the top 12 toys listed for this Christmas. In my opinion- it is the top 12 set of most advertised toys, thus- a higher demand. I was happy to see that Cabba-ge patc-h dolls are number 4; When I was little, My mom waited in line for hours to get me one I own two right now (ahem, My daughter does- yeah right lol). The number 10 toy is the aqua-doodle- This is one I am actually going to buy. Partly because I am happy to say I have yet to see a commercial for it, and secondly- because a bunch of friends are buying them and rave about them- and im all about peer pressure lol.There are several things on the “to buy” list for our kiddos-Wig-gles figures- the ones that sing songs, like barb-ie dolls, except they are really middle aged men…dont ask. Those are for Colin.I also want the Res-cue Pups (the big one, not the puppies) and a Pup-py Surp-rise- and im sure there’s more…If you are curious about todays use of dashes, it is just so I dont get caught by the hairy google monster and sucked into parental searches for toys.We walked through Wal—Mart this morning, How many days left of shopping?
