Tummy pics!

I think these "tummy pics" were all taken sometime between weeks 30-32.

Gingerbread House

In celebration of the Christmas season we made a gingerbread house. We actually made two houses and put them together so it was a bigger house. Michael has been picking candy off the roof so it doesn't look quite as good as it used to.

Duke's 1st Birthday!

On Friday, December 15th we celebrated Duke's (our dog) first birthday! We had Michael's friend bring over his dog, Chopper and they played together all night. Duke also got groomed in celebration of his first year at PetCo.

3-d Ultrasound

On December 1st we had a 3-d ultrasound. It went pretty well. But, the baby was asleep with one arm across his face and the other arm behind his head, and he wasn't moving for anything so it made it difficult to get good shots. Here are some of the images we got. Most didn't scan in very well, but this is the best we could do.

He looks great though, very healthy and still measuring a little bigger and very long. They could tell he has long legs by measuring his femur bone.

We decided he for sure has michaels lips. And you cant tell on the 3-d pics because it just looks like wrinkles, but on the 2-d ultrasound the first thing the technician pointed out was all of his hair!

We Will Miss You, Grandpa!

Last Tuesday, My grandpa died after a long battle with lung cancer. We will miss him so much but we will never forget him. He was a one-of-a-kind grandpa. We always had a great time when he was around. Some of my greatest memories of him are at the Lake, when he would take us fishing, taught us how to waterski, windsurf and sail.

We didnt know just how fast his death was approaching, but I think he had some idea. He made sure to talk to everyone individually at Thanksgiving, which was the last time he was with the entire family together. He even made sure to talk to my belly.

We love you, Grandpa!
