Big Bump!
Ugh, belly pictures, something I have completely dreaded throughout the pregnancy, but my lovely sister keeps insisting I take a few here and there. I hate to admit it, but she is right...I know I would kick myself if I ended up with no photos. So, above is a shots of my belly at 6+ months. Wow, six months already, I cant believe how fast this is going.
Everything continues to move along as planned, I had my 24 week appointment last week and I am measuring right on. The baby's heart rate remains right in the middle of the acceptable range at 145.
We have started to make some big nursery progress as well. Dave painted it a few weeks ago and we ordered the glider on Monday. We have a crib picked out and plan to purchase it this weekend. It felt to me like Dave was dragging his feet a bit on the bigger purchases, so I backed off and decided to follow his lead, I knew he would come around in his own time. Like clockwork, he felt the baby move last night for the first time, so now guess who is anxious to buy baby furniture!? Yep, he came around...I knew he would ;).
Thats about it for now...will update when I have more.

Surprise shower on Captiva Island

| Jill, Suzie, Becky and Leanne |
I flew down to Florida a couple of weekends ago to meet a few college friends. We were all in the mood to get some sun, and Florida turned out the be the perfect spot. We were on Captiva Island, which was very quiet. This was actually perfect for us considering two of the four us were pregnant. Leanne is 7 weeks ahead of me and is expecting a girl in April.
After dinner on Friday night we congregated around the patio table and the girls surprised me with baby gifts and cupcakes. It made my weekend. They had several of the items shipped to my house, which made coming home and collecting the packages really fun.
Thank you to Leanne, Jill, Stacy, Emily, Maggie and Becky! You are the bestest friends a girl could ask for. I cant wait for our next get together, you all mean so much to me.
