Baby Movement

Today has been a very exciting day at work - I am starting to feel Anna's movement:)!!! I don't know if it's helped being on my feet all day but I am definitely feeling 'flutter-like' movement and pressure. Just wanted to share:) Oh and I am including a few pics from fun dinners that we've had with friends recently!

Dinner at Marco's

Greg & I, Meghan, Matt, Ryan & Megan

Our good friend Kat came to visit last weekend! Here we are out celebrating at Ambrosia with the Barretts, Seger's, Casey and her sister:) Kat gave us the cutest pink knit hat - I can't wait to take pictures with Anna wearing it - our first pink item, THANKS Kat:)!!!

House Projects

Once we heard the news that we were expecting, Greg & I have been very focused on pulling the rest of the house together! We did quite a bit of work prior to moving in three years ago and just assumed we would finish the painting, etc....and yet, here we are three years later scrambling to finish each room:)I've included a few pictures to show all Greg's hard work that he has put into the house these past few months (painting the dining room & kitchen). Not only is Greg a fabulous painter but he has also done wonders to landscaping our yard:)


It only took us two months and 20 different samples to figure out our dining room color:)

Before Kitchen Color...still figuring out which yellow!




Spring!

Although our "To-Do List" is still quite long we are switching our focus to the nursery. Once we found out we were having a girl, I managed to plan out the bedding, furniture and theme in one day:) So fun to shop for a little girl! I'll continue to post our progress with all our house projects.

Girls Trip to Siesta Key, FL

Last week I joined my Mom and two Aunts for a relaxing girls trip to Siesta Key, FL. We had a fun trip filled with lots of time laying on and walking the beach and going out to eat at delicious restaurants - just the kind of vacation every pregnant girl needs:) I am currently in my 19th week (almost half way there!) and feeling great! I've really enjoyed pregnancy thus far and hope the feeling continues. I haven't felt Anna move yet but I can tell that my baby bump is starting to show. Running is becoming a bit difficult due to my uterus pressing against my bladder - quite a bit pressure- however, I was still able to enjoy my morning runs on the beach in Florida! Unfortunately I did not end up with too many pics from our vacation but I've included one to show a belly shot.

16 Week Appointment

Well, I just got back from our 16 week appointment and Dr. Pease was so nice to let us have a sneek peek today at our baby GIRL!!! I was just so happy to actually see a healthy baby. Needless to say, we're absolutely estatic and cannot wait for her arrival! She has a strong heartbeat in the 150's and I am measuring right at 16 weeks. Here are a few pics- I'll have another ultrasound in a few weeks for my 20 week appointment.


She's all snuggled up


It's a Girl:)

Easter Weekend

What a beautiful Easter weekend - full of time spent with family and friends and MORE basketball! Friday night we joined the Barretts and Corcorans (both whom are expecting this summer) at the Stevning's new house for a cookout. We couldn't have asked for better weather and their home is gorgeous!! Thanks Cass and Chad for a yummy dinner:)

Sunday, we celebrated Easter at Greg's parents house. It was another gorgeous day - we enjoyed spending time with our niece and nephew, Elizabeth and Brent and of course catching up with Brian and Steph!
