Nursery


Our baby's room is now complete! My favorite part is the stars Aaron put on the wall. You can find Orion and The Big Dipper if you look closely :)


Love the neat moon and star night light Mom and Dad got us too. Of course we had to put a new bed in there for Reggie too so he can hang out with and protect his new brother/sister.


We put starts above the crib too and will write the baby's name on them once we know what it will be!

A Great Weekend with a Good Friend


I got to spend the weekend with Deanne who was visiting from Pullman, WA. She's been one of my best friends since she moved to Moscow when we were in Jr. High School. She's also pregnant (14 weeks along), so we had fun shopping for baby stuff and talking about our upcoming adventures. This is her second, so she is also able to give me lots of good advice! I'm now 3 1/2 weeks from the due date and am feeling quite big even though I don't look huge. Looking forward to being able to take a deep breath again :) I've been having some signs that I might be lucky enough to not go past the due date, but we'll see!

Labor Day Weekend

We had a great weekend with our friends from college (Dannette and Levi) and their adorable little boy (Andren) who were visiting from Lewiston. We hadn't spent time with them for years, so it was great to just hang out, catch up, and get to know Andren.


We spent lots of time playing outside at different parks and going to the zoo!


Andren had a great time with Reggie and espeically liked taking him on walks. As you can see, Dannette and I are both pregnant. It will be so great to have friends with kids the same age as ours!
Thanks for the great weekend Dannette, Levi, and Andren - can't wait to see you again!

8 Months Pregnant!


8 months down, 1 1/2 to go!!!! Yay!!!! Right now, our baby weighs 5 pounds and will spend the next 6 weeks or so trying to gain a few more. He/she is on track for weighing about 8 pounds if his/her arrival is near the due date. I've been feeling pretty good lately and am actually able to breathe without such difficulty, am enjoying a little more energy than I've had over the last few weeks, and have had less leg cramps! Maybe it's just been a lucky week, but hopefully it will continue. Our ultrasound this week showed that the baby is growing very well, has its head way down low and its feet up in my ribs, and even has quite a bit of hair on its little head - can't wait to see if it will be blonde or brown! He/she has continued to be extremely active and likes to stick its little rump out on the upper right side of my belly - such cute little buns :)

Another Great Weekend!

Aaron had his big race last weekend (The Bogus Basin Hill Climb). This is him just before the race. He did awesome and beat his record time by 5 minutes, completing the race in 1hr 23 minutes!!! Nice work!


My good friend, Nicole, visited from Portland last weekend and we had a great time catching up. She is my all time favorite PT Assistant and I miss working with her!


This is Aaron out for a leisurely ride with Reggie after his big race.


Melissa and Jessica threw me a great baby shower with friends in Boise (and Nicole from Portland). I didn't get a lot of great pictures, but the baby did get a lot of great gifts and we all had a fun time - Thanks so much everybody!
