More Pictures

Here are some more pictures to satisfy the sweet tooth.

We took our first walk outside yesterday and bundled up nice and tight!

Kayligrace Marie

One of the best days of our lives: March 25, the day Kayligrace Marie was born. She was born at 8:32 pm, weighed 9 pounds 2 ounces, and was 22 inches long. Now let's get to these pictures!

Daddy got some good lessons in helping while Mommy was being fixed up!

Daddy must have known he would be getting his picture taken because he wore his "good shirt."

Yes, we are excited!

Safe in Daddy's arms.

Going home!

Week 39

Only a week left until our due date! We've got the apartment set up and all our clothes washed, a meal or two in the freezer and only a week left with students until they're into finals and spring break. We are ready!

Here are a few pictures to show how big the belly's getting these days.



Soon we'll be posting pictures of Baby instead of the belly...won't that be a nice change!

Baby's "First" Wedding

We went to a wedding last weekend, and Baby made her first wedding appearance! (Actually, she went to a wedding back in July, but we didn't realize it at the time, haha.) We thought we'd share some of our pictures, especially since we got Steven into a tie!


The doctors are still saying everything looks good...we're just playing the waiting game at this point. They're saying that since I have a little bit of extra amniotic fluid, I might not go into labor naturally, but we'll just cross that bridge when we get there. It could be any day now!

A Baby Day

So we installed the car seat today! We decided to switch its occupant, however, to try to get a more realistic feel. Meet the newest baby substitute:

As you can tell, the car seat takes up pretty much ALL of the back seat!

After we installed the car seat, we took a trip to our nearby Lake Padden to enjoy the sunshine.

If you can't tell, that shiny spot in the middle of the lake is ice!

Catching Up

Okay, so it's been a really long while since we last posted...sorry! Here's a post to try to make up for all that lost time.

December 7 (week 26)

December 14 (week 27)

January 11 (week 31)

February 1 (week 34)

Bellingham Baby Shower...with games!

We got a car seat at our shower, so we thought we should try it out and make sure we could figure out how it works. Welcome its first occupant! We installed it in the car today and about ran out of room!

There should be more pictures to come, and hopefully I'll be more regular about posting!

What a Way to Celebrate

On Monday, we went to the doctor and found out WE'RE HAVING A GIRL!!! We are so excited about this news and can't wait to meet her! Tuesday marked our 2-year anniversary, as well, so this was a wonderful way for us to celebrate! But while we're still mostly child-free, we decided we'd get away for a night to celebrate at a bed and breakfast. (We also found out that this kind of trip is called a babymoon.) It was such a fun and relaxing weekend!

There was a window between our bathroom and the bedroom!

And we had our very own fireplace!

We loved the theme of the room - rustic and outdoorsy.

This was the view from outside our room...on a very misty morning.

This is me doing a baby picture...in the rain.


This was so cool! Our hosts told us about this stream in which there were salmon spawning! This is a fish I finally caught in action as it was trying to jump over this mini waterfall! Watching these guys was amazing, and it gave a whole new meaning to "go against the flow!"
