little lady or little lad?

Hello abode lovers-- I know, I know.... it's been a while, again. I am SO disappointed in my lack of blogging as of late. I mean, who knew pregnancy takes it out of you like this? I'll be 15 weeks Thursday and have been feeling much better. Thank you all for your kind and super encouraging messages! This gal has been in skank-town-USA without any clue of how to get the hell out of there! But after nausea, sinus infections, and er, other.... infections.... <i>(thank you pregnancy)</i> I finally feel like I'm coming out of the woods.<br /><br />I didn't mention this in my last post, but it's SO exciting. My sister, Nene,<i> not her real name,</i> that lives in Atlanta with two boys is also expecting a sweet baby 8 days before me! We're 19 months apart, so we've always been super close and I feel so blessed that I get to walk through this experience WITH her! She also found out last week that she's having a GIRL!!!! I die. I literally die of excitement.<br /><br />This Friday, Mister Husband and I are taking a little trip down to a 4-d ultrasound place to find out what we're having EARLY! Why are we doing this?? Easy. Two words. NURSERY PLANNING!<br /><br />Now, some of my long-time followers might be thinking.... <i>"WAIT! You already designed your nursery, like, years ago"</i>.... and you would be correct. BUT things change, AND unfortunately, some items stop being sold. So, while I still adore my original nursery plan... there have been many fun and inspiring changes that have made me SUPER excited to get started!<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Here is my plan from way back in <a href="http://abodelove.blogspot.com/2010/09/baby-fever-nope-nursery-fever-yes.html">September of 2010</a>. It's gender neutral and I still think it's super sweet... however, I have had some major changes going on in my head that I cannot WAIT to share with all of you! <i>(But I've GOT to know the sex before I really start diving in)</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY178fSYmYHl7cHyUHuyUfnjzzc4J_2iY7eQhWokjaZmcQlJx2nc0QTWpxGGdHNk9AZO6LUYRjLRlpuXL_-sYv3y-NNiOWlhRy5yhA4B09241GGseYWjgIWhZCD6EKmcFj2N0vQXuBkik/s1600/abode+love+baby+room.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY178fSYmYHl7cHyUHuyUfnjzzc4J_2iY7eQhWokjaZmcQlJx2nc0QTWpxGGdHNk9AZO6LUYRjLRlpuXL_-sYv3y-NNiOWlhRy5yhA4B09241GGseYWjgIWhZCD6EKmcFj2N0vQXuBkik/s640/abode+love+baby+room.jpg" width="582" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">So, truth be told, I'm positive I'm having a baby boy. I mean,<i> positive</i>. Mister Husband also thinks he's a boy as does my <i>amazing</i> OB. So, what do YOU think it is??? I LOVE wondering about it and would just explode with happiness with either sex-- but I do have that <i>"motherly instinct"</i> that I'm dealing with a super tough boy in my belly.<i> (He's given me a lot of hell... so I'm just thinking it's a boy that's hard headed and full of passion and life- just like my precious Mister Husband!) </i></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Now, I know that wives tales say that being sick=girl, but that's never been correct with my family and friends... so I just don't buy that! Chinese calendar says boy on one version and girl on another.... so, a big thanks to the chinese, you're of NO help. Heartbeat has been fast both times we've heard it <i>(which is by the way THE most amazing and magical sound)</i> but again, I don't buy that theory either! My super mom brought home her first daughter to a blue nursery and airplane sleepers because my sister Nene had a slow heartbeat! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">So--- I need predictions. We can only guess and wonder what it will be for a few more days <i>(although it feels like an ETERNITY)</i>! So abode lovers.... lady? or lad???? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRVvJe5sYuCVfCAERRbiL-ryKAn8i0Zfh6MjM7z6iVJfJHI9aLLyh9IE63mTAmGEnI38boGE54czJVEChKCoBD3hb9kZ00Qt-AQ5RJmWO1BAy4FROh75q9TvRM_g7N1pRZwBEnQTeEYrk/s1600/signature-1-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="50" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRVvJe5sYuCVfCAERRbiL-ryKAn8i0Zfh6MjM7z6iVJfJHI9aLLyh9IE63mTAmGEnI38boGE54czJVEChKCoBD3hb9kZ00Qt-AQ5RJmWO1BAy4FROh75q9TvRM_g7N1pRZwBEnQTeEYrk/s640/signature-1-1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>

little-bitty mini originals

Hello abode lovers and welcome back to reality! Did anyone else enjoy their time off as much as I did? I spent time with family, Mister Hubbs, saw movies and painted! Fortunately, since I was able to do <i>some</i> work over the holiday weekend, I now have a few little mini originals to share with all of you! I wanted to introduce a new item to the shop, <i><a href="http://laureldawn.bigcartel.com/">Laurel Dawn</a></i>, just for the holidays and these are my answer! A little-bitty original painting. They're small enough that they can sit nicely on a table top like a picture frame.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://laureldawn.bigcartel.com/product/bowtie-mini-5-x5">Bowtie Mini 5"x5"</a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
