Beach Trips...

Eric and I are visiting the beach this fall and winter frequently. We went out with our friends for a Cross bike race, we used up a gift certificate from Eric's work to Rock away and we are headed back with our families for Thanksgiving. We have lucked out so far, two out of three trips we have had sunshine!

Halloween!

While camping on the North Umpqua this summer, our friends asked us how big the baby was this week and I reported that she was squirrel size according to the baby book. Shortly after she was nicknamed squirrel girl, and I have been referred to as squirrel cage...anyway...Ryan carved a squirrel girl pumpkin for halloween. Here we are comparing tummy size. I win! Ryan is sporting his skin tattoo shirt!

1st Belly Shot!

Every week I have said that I will take a picture of the belly progress. I have been terrible about doing so. This was the first one I took. I believe I was at 26-28 weeks. I wish I would have been better at taking a weekly shot to show the progress...it would have been a little more interesting. But at least at this point I looked like I was pregnant not just chubby!

The Grandma's working on the baby room items

I feel so fortunate that I have two mom's who are amazing seamstresses! They worked very hard for one weekend to make curtains, bumpers, crib sheets, and crib ruffle. It turned out so sweet. What a lucky little lady our baby is to have such a great Grandma and Nana!
