For those who don't know, it has been decided that I will remain in the states and give birth to our baby here. David is currently still in Finland (which has been extremely hard for us) and will be coming back to the states near the end of November or very early December. David's employer, Remedy Entertainment, has been extremely supportive of us and our decisions and I thank them so much for that. After the baby is born, David and I will decide where we want to go from there. While in the states, we will be staying at my parent's house where they have so graciously agreed to let us set up a nursery. It's kind of cool because our little boy's nursery will be in the same room that I lived in for most of my life.
As far as the nursery goes, the paint color has been picked and even if you know David and I well at all, you know that especially after finding out that we're having a boy some "geekiness" will be involved. Like I said before, the nursery is a surprise that David will see when he gets back to the states, so no real details on that. If you need to know for some reason, feel free to email or facebook me. The crib came in this week and will be put together once the room is painted. My mom and I have some craft projects planned for the nursery as well, which are going to be fun to do together!
Also, for those that don't know, a baby shower is being planned for November 5th - keep an eye on your mailbox as invites will be mailed out soon hopefully. I know some of you have been asking about our baby registry, so here's the scoop... The registry is pretty much complete, though as I'm sure most of you know, it's hard to stop looking so a new item or two may be added every now and then. The only registry is on Amazon.com, but if you look next to any item, there should be a link that says "Buying this gift elsewhere?". If you click that link, then you'll just enter your email, click a link in an email that Amazon will send you and then the item will be marked as purchased. This feature allows you to purchase the item elsewhere if it is more convenient, cheaper, etc. for you. As far as clothes go, anything 3 months or above will be great - we have quite a bit of newborn items already (we couldn't help ourselves). Here's a direct link to our registry, but you can find it by typing either of our names in as well (David Rhodes or Angela Rhodes).

I think that's about it.. I don't think my mom will let me go much longer without taking a belly photo, so you can bet that one will be up soon!
