Email blogger function

I have also set up an email function so we can easily post pics from our phone. This is Sam, ecstatic to have me home all day!!

Sent from my Windows Mobile® phone.

I have set up the text blog function so we will be able to let everyone know when the little fella has arrived!!

Its done...almost!

Nick,with the support of a bunch of our friends and family (you know who you are), was able to finish up construction on the inside of the nursery this week. We then got to go crazy putting away all the goodies that all those friends, family and co-workers gave us to help dress, feed, diaper and clean the little guy! Here are some quick pics of the room...we still need to put the dresser, curtains and wall deco up but we are calling it good for the moment.

The doctor is still "hoping" that he decides to come in the next week. We are trying not to get too antsy about it though because if he is anything like Nick or me, he will show up when he is good and ready! So for now we are enjoying hanging out at home, venturing out for weddings, hockey games and what seems to be endless trips to Target and Baby's R Us.

We will keep everyone posted! This is me at 37.5 weeks!

SOON...we hope!

We've been pretty busy the last couple of weeks; nick finishing the room, me trying to read as many baby care facts as possible... We also took a new born preparation class this last weekend and decided that we were very prepared to swaddle the baby; other things may be more of a challenge but at least we have one thing down!!

We have started visiting the doctor once a week. During this week's visit we discovered that the little guy is in fact a big boy! The doctor "hopes" he decides to come around 38 weeks and we concur! He is in the right position and I have started dilating so who knows...maybe he will share my sister's birthday on 6th or the grandma's birthdays on the 18th!! We will keep you posted!
This is me and the little guys at 36 weeks!

First Baby Shower

Our friends Shannon and Andy (with their new little one Hadley) came to visit us and together with our friend Michelle give our little fella shower. We had about 20 people drive all the way up to our house to celebrate. It was so great! The ladies ate homemade 7 layer dip, caprese salad and cheese cake while the boys went to see the Mariners vs. Red Sox down town (yes I was DD that night too). This is me opening my room full of presents half. We had such a great time and this little man is officially spoiled!!

Wedding, weddings, weddings!!!

It is the wedding season again and it has been even more difficult than usual to find the "right" outfit! My friend Michelle helped out with this one...I am about 33 weeks here...!


I was definately the DD this night!

Our First Live Sounders Game


On April 25th we got to pretend that we had season tickets to the Sounders!! Our friends Pete and Emily just got hitched and they needed to give their tickets to somebody...we of course offered!! Our other friends Alex and Codie (who also have season tickets)geared us up for the event. We were equipped with sweatshirts and the infamous sounders scarf!! We had the best time and can't wait for our next opportunity. Thanks Pete and Emily!!
