30 Week Milestone at Yellowstone...

This last weekend, as we drove home from Seattle we spent a day at Yellowstone to celebrate our last road trip before baby. The weather was so beautiful we were blessed beyond belief and to have the park wide open for our enjoyment...simply perfect. It was also a great way to celebrate that we are fully into the third trimester with less than ten weeks to go! David took most of these pictures and made them so artistic and lovely, we're going to frame some of them for the baby's room.

Celebrating Baby in Seattle...

Our first baby shower was last weekend in Seattle hosted by our dear friends Meresa and her Mom Cynthia. It was such a nice relaxing day...after breakfast at the Five Spot (my favorite classic Seattle restaurant) and morning service at UPC (my favorite church in Seattle) we had some of my best and most devoted friends come to celebrate our baby boy. Tea, coffee and carrot cake made the menu and we had a great time reminiscing about the times we'd spent together and how everyone met me...most importantly, how we became friends. Thank you Meresa and Cynthia, we had a wonderful time!

28 Weeks....

Hi friends! We are now in our 28th week and are growing faster than ever. Thankfully not putting on weight too fast any more but the belly is expanding and our little guy is so active all the time now. I can count at least ten to fifteen kickboxing sessions a day. He is about 2.5 lbs and is about 14 inches long. His heartbeat is strong and things look to be right on schedule. Mom is doing well too, finding new ways to be comfortable and getting anxious for her first flight as a pregnant woman....Seattle for a baby shower next weekend! This is really exciting for us because we will be able to see friends that we haven't seen in almost a year and be able to celebrate the coming of this little guy together! Thanks Meresa and Cynthia for throwing this lovely party for us! Our 30 week milestone will be marked with pictures from the Emerald City so stay tuned!These pictures are not so good but what else can one do when they are home alone? I at least wanted there to be some pictures from my 28th week....it's been a while since we posted the last ones and my belly has grown so much since then!
