Christmas cards....and many more
If you have ever gotten a Christmas Card from the Hughes' household, you know that I love to put pictures on my cards. And most of the time, it's not just Andrew and I, but also Addie and Dopey since they are part of the family too. My favorite place to get Christmas cards is Shutterfly, but they not only have Christmas cards, but many other types of card and even stationary. Come with me as I take you on a tour of the things I love on Shutterfly.
Here you can search any of their Christmas Cards: BEWARE: Their are A LOT TO choose from, the decision may not be easy, but you will LOVE so many.

Already so loved...
Our baby girl is already so loved. We found out we were having a girl and ran to Heartstrings in Bowling Green to buy an outfit. We were successful:) Then, we got WKU gear from Andrew's parents. Later, when we got to Adam and Emily's, we were greeted with a bag of girlie goodies. I walked into work yesterday, a teacher gives me another gift!
Elsie Ann Hughes is already so loved and will only be loved more as time goes on. We ordered furniture for her nursery today!!!! Can't wait for it to come!
Elsie's WKU gear. We will have to pair the jersey with a denim skirt and big ol' hair bow!
Elsie's first girlie outfit. As soon we we found out the gender, we drove as fast as we could to the store. Shopping for a girl is addicting!! Bella (Elsie's cousin) found this out the right way:)
The sweet snuggle that a teacher I work with got for Elsie. It is SOOO soft!!!!
Our bag of goodies from Uncle Adam, Aunt Emily, and big cousin Bella. I already started writing in the baby book. I better get ahead now, because later, I won't have as much time.
Thank you everyone for the gifts so far, we have an amazing family and friends!!!! God has truly blessed us with all of them!

Rooster Dopey...He was MUCH MORE cooperative than Addie.
Turtle Dopey
Addie is NOT a happy doctor :-(

Meet Little H
I had an ultrasound at 12 weeks (which was almost 3 weeks ago). We have been trying to scan it, but it wouldn't work, FINALLY I decided to take a picture of it. However, it looks horrible. I went ahead and posted it and hopefully you can make it out.
