Rob and I enjoyed a final sunny getaway before BK arrives in June.  We spent 5 days in San Diego at a fabulous bed and breakfast.  Our days consisted of sleeping in, long walks, yummy meals and a few tourist attractions.  We went to a couple of breweries (Stone and Pizza Port), toured the USS…

This week Rob and I took our first baby class, Baby 101 at Evergreen Hospital.  It covered everything from what a newborn could look like, to bathing, feeding, diapers and carrier options.  I also had my 4th doctor appointment which included the dreaded glucose test.  I am happy to report that I passed the glucose test and don’t have gestational diabetes.  My…

We can’t believe it–the third trimester is already here!  I am still feeling great, but do find I am less agile.  This was very apparent when finishing up the panels on the airplane from the annual inspection this weekend.  The screws I have put in 5 times before were out of reach this time around. …

  I am still feeling great at this point of the pregnancy.  BK’s movements seem to have moved internally vs. against the outside of my belly which has been a bit distracting at work, especially in meetings 🙂  This weekend I took a sewing class which sparked my creative side and inspired me to work on…

At this point, the books say that BK can hear sounds, and if you have a dog or something loud in your environment they should grow comfortable with the sound even before they are born.  Rob and I realize we are very quiet people, but this week I have found the “loud” noise BK will learn to have…

This week we had our 24 week doctor appointment (only our 3rd one so far) and found out everything is still looking great. About baby: He is ~1.5lbs now and 12″ long from head to rump, he is constantly moving and Rob can feel him kicking him in the back when I spoon him.  I…

This week Rob and I hit Babiesrus, again. This time we got through our first attempt at registering; we both were exhausted after that 2.5 hour adventure. Now that we have placeholder items, we need to go back and read reviews and actually decide which specific brand or type of items and if it will…

22 weeks.  This week I must have “popped” even more as I had 3 people come up and ask if I was pregnant. Guess that means I have turned the corner from too much food at the holidays to more of the pregnancy belly look. Along with this new look we have noticed my first…

This week I have been feeling the little guy move a ton. He definitely lets me know when I am sitting down after moving around for a while since he seems to wake up at those times. Resting and orange juice really gets him moving; he loves a morning shot of orange juice. Rob and…

We had the long anticpated 20 week ultrasound when we found out our bundle of joy is a boy. We didn’t have a gender preference and were thrilled to see that everything is looking healthy. It was also…
