20 week ultrasound - October 28, 2008




Today was our 20 week ultrasound, and WOW! That was a fun doctor's visit. The baby is doing great with all the vitals looking normal. We got to see arms, fingers, foot and face! I know it sounds cliche, but it is just incredibly hard to imagine this little person is a peice of Monica and I combined! You can definitely tell it is my child with its huge chin! We also had the choice of finding out the sex, and we declined to do so....BUT, I (being the ultrasound technician from another life) can swear I saw images that indicate a lady baby!! So, I am now dead set on having a daughter and can't freakin' wait to hold her in my arms! -Joe

Weekend Visit with Honeymoon Friends!

We had a fun and relaxing weekend! Jenn & Tim, our friends we met on our honeymoon in St. Lucia came to visit us! They drove from St. Louis and brought their dogs, Frank & Beans to play with Bailey! We went to Joe's football game on Friday (they won!), out to dinner on Saturday and hung out at Piedmont Park with the dogs on Sunday! Fun weekend and so great to see them! -Monica

1st Annual Mother-Daughter Weekend

Mom, Molly & I enjoyed our first annual Mother-Daughter weekend at Niagra on the Lake! We spent time shopping, talking, laughing, eating and just relaxing! This picture is us just before we relished in our facials....what a treat! We also squeezed in a visit to Jamestown where we were able to visit with my dad, gram, Anna Rae, The Burns & some of the J-town crew! What a great weekend! -Monica
