Here we are at 18 weeks ... and then just over 20 weeks

Ultrasound Pictures

Here is the first pictures of Niblet. We know it is a little hard to see what is going on. Sort of like those 3-D magic eye pictures!


Niblet's head is the big round thing on the left. He is in profile. Right by his nose or maybe eyes are his two little hands. You can then see his chest and then all the way on the right his legs. For a closer look, you can click on the picture on the left and it should open as a larger version.


Here are the rest of the pictures. They are even more confusing but take a look anyway.

It's a....

That is right - we are having a BOY!!! We had our ultrasound this morning and the good news is that niblet looks wonderful! We saw all of niblet's parts and everything looks perfect. We are so excited. Tomorrow we will post pictures of the ultrasound - we just wanted to get the good news out right away.

Marci & Dave's Wedding

Marci & Dave were married over the weekend. What a cute couple! Lauren had a fantastic time at the wedding. Marci was radiating happiness. It was wonderful to be around. Here are my other pictures from the event.














And what a treat it was to spend time with the crew from NYC! Old friends are some of the best friends.

Turkey Day 2005

We had a wonderful and yummy thanksgiving with Jerald's family. The women then spent a very cold friday shopping for dresses for Josh & Sara's upcoming wedding. The store had no heat!!! But we all got wonderful dresses.














Even though it was our year to spend Thanksgiving with Jerald's family, Lauren's family was in town for the holiday as well! We got to spend dinner with them on friday. Grandma and Grandpa even flew up from florida to see Lauren's tummy. What fun!!!














But the biggest event of the season was Lauren's now famous apple pie. YUM!!!
