33 Weeks

33 week picture


His movements are still fascinating but also getting uncomfortable. Apparently that's due to the lack of increase in amniotic fluid at this point, which was previously helping to cushion the blows. The little stinker seems to enjoy pushing on/kicking/punching my bladder and right side of my rib cage. But it's still fun to watch. Also for the past week or so I've been able to tell when he's hiccuping and THAT'S rather cute.

We had our free-bee ultrasound today (since some of their equipment wasn't working for our 20 week ultrasound).
It turned out ok. Not SPECTACULAR but not bad. Also, we we're excited about getting it on DVD (which they usually do at 20 weeks) but I came home and put it in the computer and it doesn't seem to work. Awesome. Oh well.


His little linus
3D profile. Kind of hard to see. His face occupies the left side of the picture and he's facing in the opposite direction of my hand that is holding the picture. The black area on the left side of the picture looks like a big hole in his head (...it's not). Once you figure it out, it's actually pretty cool. You can see his right eye (which appears to be closed), his nose, mouth and chin. It's a real baby!

The Chicco Travel System (car seat/carrier and stroller) that we bought used for $85 (thanks KSL.com)! Significantly cheaper than the retail price of approximately $300. Don't worry, the seller (who is married to a brother of a friend of Brett's) informed us it's never been in a car accident.

Graco Bassinet/Travel Lite Crib. This is what he'll be sleeping in for probably about the first month, in our room. It will likely also be used (while he's still small enough to fit) as a porta-crib if he ever sleeps at one of his many loving grandparents' houses :) Received from the P-town girls at the cute shower they threw for me on Saturday Dec. 4th. Thanks Francom, Whitney, Kelsey, Megan and Makell!!! You're the best. :)

The Medela dual electric breast pump that we were able to afford thanks to Grandma Ann!


Some have asked what we need, and the easiest way to know is to check out our registries! I've been doing my homework comparing prices web-wide and at local stores and tried to register accordingly.

Once at one of the websites, look for a link labeled "Baby registry" or "Gift registry". Then look for the option to "find a registry" and type in either Emily Tingey or Brett Tingey.

Target.com (I think registry is also accessible at any Target store)
