Ultrasound Pictures

Below are some pictures from my 20 week and 24 week ultrasounds. The baby doesn't like to cooperate so they still haven't been able to see everything and I go back for another ultrasound in a few weeks.

The first week in July Paul had off of work so we went down to visit his mom. It was nice and relaxing being away for the week. I didn't take many pictures, but here are some of what I did take.








Paul tried to help Andrew up on this
rock but got told, "No Dad! I am a
man! I am a MAN!"










The lone Pelican we saw.

States visit May 2010

Because of my grandma's passing, Paul and I flew back to the States for her funeral. Even though it was an extremely sad occasion, I had a great time catching up with everyone. I miss everyone and even though I keep up with them on cam/facebook, it's not the same. Here are some of the pictures I took while home.

First thing I did when I got home was get a
haircut! It was the first one since before I
moved in June 2009!

Oh! The Preakness was going on while we were there and the horse I picked came in second! Woo hoo!

RIP Grandma

Easter Surprise

This year for Easter we had a surprise for everyone. We are having a baby! I was 12 weeks on Easter Sunday (I'm now almost 27 weeks so you can see how much I've been slacking on this blog). It was super hard to hide because Paul's sister was living with us at the time. Somehow we managed though! Paul ended up calling his side of the family and telling them (they live about 4 hours away). Since I found out I was pregnant the first week of February, I knew how I wanted to tell my family. Paul and I both agreed to wait until I was 12 weeks before we told anyone and it just so happened to work out that Easter Sunday was 12 weeks. It worked out even better that my family was going to be at my parent's house to celebrate. We had planned to get on Skype together and I loved seeing their reaction. It was hard getting everyone in the same room and I thought our plan wouldn't work out. My aunt had to take her mother home so I asked her to wait and get everyone in the room because had a picture we wanted to show them. Finally everyone was there and I sent the picture via messenger. It took a few seconds for it to register with everyone what it was a picture of and then there was lots of screaming and crying and falling off couches! It was such a great feeling to be out and now have to keep the secret to ourselves anymore.





Due October 17, 2010, gender is a surprise!

Happy Birthday Andrew!

March 14th was Andrews 10th birthday! Since the kids birthdays are so close to each other (Chelsea's is March 7th) we spent the day at the zoo. It was my first time at the Melbourne Zoo. We were all slightly disappointed because a lot of the exhibits had no animals in them. Oh well. We had a great time seeing what we could.
