Pregnancy Moments

I don't really care for ice cream too much, but I do love cookie dough ice cream! Mainly because I love raw cookie dough. (Which I know is terrible for me!) The bad part about being pregnant is you aren't supposed to eat raw cookie dough due to the raw eggs. I found a loophole! While at Marble Slab a few weeks ago I was telling the owner about my dilemma. He looked up their recipe for me and told me their cookie dough does not contain eggs!!! They don't cook the dough so they don't have any reason to put eggs in it. Unfortunately at that time I had already ordered my ice cream so I couldn't get cookie dough. But I remembered tonight! My wonderful husband made a special stop and we got some cookie dough ice cream to go. Now I will enjoy it by the fire :)
One more fun pregnancy moment. And it comes from the mouth of a 6 year old..."Mrs. Johns I can tell that your baby is growing!" They are so honest and cute.

The Baby Bump is here!


Well we are a little over 26 weeks today. My body is continuing to change! We thought at this point we should start taking head to waist pictures so you can see the bump in comparison to everything else. I am now "feeling" pregnant. My favorite quote about being pregnant so far was from a student to another teacher at school. She told the teacher "I don't know the nice way to say this but Mrs. Johns looks like she is going to have a baby now!" Poor thing was scared to call me fat..haha!

Baby Hudson is growing quite a bit! Most books say he is in between 1 1/2 and 2 pounds right now. I can feel him moving every day now. I am still waiting to be able to feel him from the outside of my stomach so others (especially Cody) can enjoy feeling him move too!

I think we have officially finished registering. I pretty sure I mentioned this before but it is so hard to imagine what we will need! I continue to worry thinking I hope I got it all. We are registered at Target, Babies R Us, and Ohh Baby! (inside Stacy Furniture). You can find all the links here.

Target: Click here You can search by mother or father using mine name or Cody's. Be sure to select the correct registry there are a few Tiffany Johns in Texas believe it or not.

Babies R Us: Click here You should select registrant and type Tiffany Johns. Our city is listed as McKinney, TX.

Go Cowboys!!!

This isn't completely Hudson related but Brian did point out that last weekend goes down as Hudson's first official Cowboy's game! So I figured I could post the pictures on here :) Brian, one of Cody's closest friends came in town from Chicago last weekend for Baylor's Homecoming. We all went to Waco together Saturday for all the Homecoming festivities. (I can't wait to take Hudson next year- We got a cute Baylor outfit for him to wear when the time comes) Then on Sunday Brian took us to the Cowboys game to watch the boys beat the Falcons. It was a great game! Here are some pictures of the new stadium.


Nursery underway!

Two posts in one week :) After we picked out the bedding this weekend we decided to go ahead and get started on preparing the nursery. The first step...painting! The thing we all know can make a room look so much better but we never want to jump up to do it. This is one of those times I'm kicking myself wishing I had a before picture!!! I have searched everywhere and none to be found. This room started out a pale lime green on top with white chair railing and a slightly darker pale lime green on bottom. Here is Cody in action! (This took all day Sunday!) We used a Ralph Lauren suede paint that takes a bit of a process.

And the finished piece!!! (Well, finished for now) We still have quite a bit to add to the room.
