Two Tips Tuesday

#1:

Looking for an awesome link up with other fashionable ladies who love accessories? Then link up with me and Emily from A Devine Life this coming Thursday, May 2. We are hosting a “What’s Your Favorite Accessory?” link up. We want to know what your favorite accessory is (obvi!) and see how you style it. All you have to do is write a post talking about your favorite accessory in whatever way you choose, then link up here or at A Devine Life on Thursday. Oh and tell your friends! The more people who know about it the better. And if you don't have a blog, then just be sure to come back here on Thursday and hopefully get tons of inspiration from all of the people who link up their accessories.

Feel free to grab the button above to use in your blog post. The official grab code is to your left in my side bar. Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with.

(Or if you want me to make it really easy for you, use this grab code here:

If you are pregnant, have I got a really fun ultrasound option to tell you about. Yes, the 2D profile pictures that you receive from your doctor are terrific. But you know what is really great? A 3D ultra sound where you actually get to see your baby’s face! Tolar and I had our 3D ultra sound appointment over the weekend and we had a blast. Now this is an optional ultrasound and not performed at your doctor’s office; its more for fun than anything. We used InfantSee 3D/4D in Fairfax, VA and really enjoyed it. They have a huge theatre room that can hold up to eight people (it was just Tolar and myself though, which was still really cool). The room is dark, like you are going into a movie and they have really cushy couches for everyone to sit on. And the bed for mama to be is so awesome! This was not an exam table, but a nice comfortable bed fit for a queen with plenty of padding. Directly in front of the bed is a huge screen where everyone can watch the baby and see the ultra sound in 3D. It is recommended to go around 30 weeks of your pregnancy and I was 29 weeks, so perfect timing. We got to see our baby smile, blink and suck her thumb! She would not let go of her thumb or her feet. She is definitely a sucker! (Uh oh, I was a thumb sucker; Tolar and I will have our hands full with this one!) The package we purchased included printed photos of baby girl, a DVD of the entire experience and a recorded heartbeat - I love how cool technology is these days. It was such a surreal experience seeing my baby’s face and getting a better glimpse at what she will look like. She definitely has my little stubby nose. We can’t wait to meet her in just a couple short months, especially after this fun appointment. I recommend googling 3D/4D ultrasounds in your area if you are interested.

And I’d like to wish a very special Happy Anniversary to my two awesome parents. Their marriage has been such an inspiration to Tolar and myself. I’m so honored to have parents who have loved each other for more than 30 years! Love you Mom and Dad!!!
