A few months ago, we read in a magazine that it was a good idea to take a "BabyMoon," as a last getaway before kiddos come into the picture. We decided to sneak away to Denver for a few nights. Here we are above eating awesome Mexican food at Hacienda Colorado.
Eating yummy seafood at Pappadeaux's.
We spent the better part of a day at the Denver zoo since we had never been...
One of the best inventions for pregnant women is the "Snoogle Pillow." I invested in one several months ago and it really helps me sleep! Madison too has taken a liking to it...
Today, Kyle's mom kindly treated me to lunch and to a pedicure! It was great timing seeing as I can't reach my toes to paint them anymore! :)
Here are a few pictures of the belly as of a few days ago. The one below is something I have been waiting a long time to do!!
We went to the doctor today and everything is progressing nicely. Lindsay has successfully gained 11 pounds and is feeling pretty good. The plan is still to be induced at week 39 (around June 19th). Brayden is growing at the right rate and is strong and healthy! He definitely likes to kick Mommy a lot! The other night, we put a water bottle on Lindsay's belly and watched him kick it off. Kyle also likes to push down and feel Brayden respond with lots of pushing back!!
Today we went to have an ultrasound and discovered that "Little," is a BOY!!! He is very healthy, weighs 13 oz and is very active! To celebrate, we went out and bought a bunch of new clothes for him. Here are a few of our favorites.
Too cute huh? Who doesn't need a puppy on their butt?
We went to the doctor last week for another monthly check-up and everything is progressing nicely. The baby is healthy thus far, and some tests were taken for down syndrome, spinabifida, etc. In just 4 short weeks, we get to find out the baby's gender! Keep checking, we'll keep you posted!
Last weekend, my mom, sister, friend Steph, and Kyle's mom came over to paint the nursery! It is dark yellow on the bottom and light yellow on the top with cute animal wallpaper in the middle. It turned out so adorable!
Here is the bedding up close.
Here is the wallpaper border that matches the crib bedding.
Sitting in the new glider, getting impatient for Little to come!
We went to see the doctor today for our second check-up and he gave us this little plastic baby to show how big the baby is currently! It is about 1.75 inches. We also got to hear the heartbeat today!
Here is Lindsay's belly currently, with just a small bump. Not for long! Weight gain and maternity clothes should be coming soon!!!
Well, Kyle and I just spent a lovely $210.00 at the Emergency Vet because poor Georgia was bleeding on her neck and had 3 horrible bleeding burns marks where the prongs of her bark collar were touching her. We have used a bark collar before and it simply provided gentle correction, but that was NOT the case with the PET SAFE brand.
Here is Kyle expertly demonstrating how to place the star on the tree...
Wrapped in the tree skirt...
Well, you can't see it, but sure enough the little box reads "pregnant!" We are so excited! Lindsay has her first ultrsound on November 8th and will know the exact due date at that time! We'll keep you posted.
Well, the basement is coming along, and we will be so happy when the disaster area is completed!! The electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work have been completed, and the walls went up today!! Here is the main room that we will use for entertainment!
This leads to the hallway, bathroom and bedroom doors.
Here is the bathroom...Kyle and I are tiling the floor and shower walls this weekend.
This is the bedroom.
This weekend, Eric, Jason, Kelly, and I decided it was time for a trip to Denver's Museum of Science and Art. Here we are in the gift shop enjoying the vaiety of hats!
Wearing outfits to go and dig up treasure....
I had to include Georgia and Madison because they are just so cute!!
