Welcome to our BABY blog!!!

That's right...we are having a BABY! We found out this Awesome news on June 8, a few days before we took off for Vegas! Glad we got that trip out of our system, it will probably be a while before we make it back! But we sure did have a blast!

We are so excited about this new little member of our fabulous family! From what we can tell, it is already ADORABLE!

For the next several months, we are going to document our life preparing for the arrival of Baby Wilkins so stop by and check out our progress! Feel free to leave us comments along the way, we would love to see and hear from everyone that stops by our page!

Love you all,
Candace and Scott

24 Weeks... 16 more to go!!!

Another week has flown by! My Dinosaur paintings turned out rather well! I think they add a lot to the nursery! Here are a few pictures of the final product...





As for the changing station, Scott is coming to a close! I dont have any recent pictures, but I will be sure to take some and post them soon! It looks FABULOUS! I can't wait for him to get it painted so we can move it in the house and start filling it up with baby things!

So for the little man, he is getting so big! We go to our next doctor appointment on Tuesday to check on him, but he is definitely getting around. I can feel him quite often now. Scott still can't feel him just yet, and I know he is totally looking forward to the day that he can feel baby W squirm. That time is just around the corner, I know!

Its crazy to think that we only have three full months until this little guy will make his debut. This time has just flown by, and it has been such a great experience so far!

Well, thats all for now... I will post some pics of the changing system soon!

Baby this week:

Your baby's growing steadily, having gained about 4 ounces since last week. That puts him at just over a pound. Since he's almost a foot long he cuts a pretty lean figure at this point, but his body is filling out proportionally and he'll soon start to plump up. His brain is also growing quickly now, and his taste buds are continuing to develop. His lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" as well as cells that produce surfactant, a substance that will help his air sacs inflate once he hits the outside world. His skin is still thin and translucent, but that will start to change soon.
