Our new carseat/stroller combo!


Well, I had my family shower this weekend at Carolina's house! I was shocked by the amount of people who showed up. At one point I counted 35! We are so thankful to everyone who brought us gifts and things that Baby Baker needs! My camera's batteries died during the middle of the shower so I am awaiting the pics from a friend and I can post them. Grandma Caro and Grandpa Froy bought us our carseat/stroller combo. We decided on the Chicco Cortina Discovery travel system. It was just rated #1 by Consumer Reports for Safety and ease of use! This made me happy since we registered for this one a while ago. Baker thanks Grandma and Grandpa for this great present. Now he'll be nice and safe! Joel set it all up and was pushing it around our house last night. It was soo cute! He is so excited to have Baker here, I just know he'll be a wreck when he's born, as will I! He then put the carseat in my car and it looks so weird to see a carseat in my car. People always teased me about my SAAB being such a family car, but now it really looks like a family car! We just have to get a car seat base for Joel's car and we'll be set!


I'm on my 19th day of bedrest....still going crazy, but I just have to keep him in until at least Feb 2, which will be 37 weeks. I hope I can do that. I was checked last night as was still about 2-3 cm dialated and now 85-90% effaced, so hopefully bedrest will shorten the progression. I see Dr on Friday morning so I promise to update asap! Thank you again for all your all your generosity and thoughts and prayers! We really need it!


Love, Mommy, Daddy and Baby Baker

You're getting closer and closer!! Chelsea will be 6 months on 2/2...maybe that's the day! :)

I love your travel combo...the colors are awesome! And I totally remember that feeling of driving around with the empty car seat. It looks so strange to look back and see it there! :)

We're thinking of you and can't wait to hear about 'lil Baker's arrival. :)
