3D Peek

Here are a few of the images we got with Drew's 3D Ultrasound, we can't wait to meet our boy!




A few pregnancy photos...

This was hard to post but I think I will be happy we took them one day ;-).  This is from the beginning with many weeks missing but it gives the right idea.



24 weeks


33 weeks






Baby Showers!

I must begin this post by stating that we are so incredibly blessed!  We have the most amazing friends & family that have truly showered us with love & gifts for this little boy.

It all started in late December when we traveled to Jacksonville...






Then in late February and early March we had several more...


My co-workers gave a sweet shower at my friend Laura's home



My sisters hosted a family shower.





My ladies Small Group gave us one too.




Michael's Work Friends...





And lastly, our friends in Cleveland.



 



My good friend Mandi came, she is pregnant with her 3rd boy and we are due 2 days apart.

It snowed!

While we were away for the weekend, our city got a surprise snow!  We were thrilled when our friend & Reece Sitter, Kat, sent us a few pictures.  Maybe we will get to see it in person next time!



Baby Moon - Gatlinburg, TN

In late January we went with four of our friends to Gatlinburg,TN for a weekend getaway.  We enjoyed shopping, eating, playing the Wii and resting.  Michael calls this our "baby moon," as it was probably our last trip away for awhile!
