It's a.....

BOY!!!!

I am sorry I should have sent this a couple weeks ago but my family was sick, then sick again and I really haven't been on the computer much. Here is a picture of our son. They are kinda blurring cause he was moving so much during the ultrasound. He is doing well (as far as I can tell). Love to move from 8:30pm-10pm every night.


If you are wondering yes we will be having a baby shower for him. Two of my good friends Kathryn Harleman and Janice Covi will be co-hosting it. What a blessing it is to have amazing friends, especially in a world where you look around and there is so much heartbrake, turmoil and chaos. We haven't picked a date yet but it will be in March or April. I have registered at www.babiesrus.com again this time.

Hope everyone is doing well and recovering from the holidays :)

Oh my goodness will it ever stop snowing?

Last night it snowed again and we got another 5-6 inches probably. We still had snow from the last storm too...and it is snowing again now. :) Here are some pictures I took today.

As you can see our old snowman was covered...so we made a new one.




Ivy LOVES to eat snow. It's pretty much all she wants to do.




We borrowed a little sled from our neighbor...she didn't like it. I guess we try again next year. :)


Here she is cuddling with daddy on the couch. She was giving "nose kissies" in the one where they are facing each other. The one with her eyes all squinty...Greg said "close your eyes Ivy".

Out in the snow

Today we went out and played in the snow for about 30 minutes. The snow was very powdery so we couldn't really make a snowman...but we made a very little one. He is about 12 inches tall :)

Enjoy the pictures!!!

Snow

We will go outside tomorrow and play in the snow some more...but tonight while Greg was taking out the garbage, Ivy went to play for just a few minutes. Here are 2 pictures of that. I will post more from tomorrow too. :)

Microsoft Holiday Bash 2008

Last night Greg and I went to the Microsoft Holiday Bash. We both had a very good time. There were 2 different buildings with lots of different rooms and the buildings were connected by a covered walkway.




At one point I mentioned to Greg that dill pickles sounded good. He went at talked to a server to talked to the manager. He explained to the manager he had a pregnant wife who was looking for pickles. They didn't have any but the manager was so sweet and actually went to the store and got some. They were perfect.


All around the place there were these glowing balls that change colors. Greg decided to dance with them to the music. This is what it looked like. One picture is with flash and the other is what it really looked like in the dark.
