And Baby is....

And we know everyone is awaiting the big news...



He was not shy about showing off his nether regions!

I  don't know what the top one is and the bottom I think this is an arm.

These are pictures of his face. It's like he's pressing his face up again my uterus and making a face. He was smiling at us at one point but it was too quick to get a picture.

The top picture is of his belly and him crossing his legs at the ankle. The bottom is a leg I think.
 The doctor looked at everything and said that baby was progressing right on schedule and that there are no developmental problems or anything and everything looks good. There weren't very many people that guess right, only Dad and Karen, Grandma, Jonny and of course Andrew who knew from the day we found out it was a boy. It's really nice to finally know so we can start trying to pick a name.... which we will be keeping secret!

Our Garden

This year we decided to plant a garden in the space outside of our apartment.
There were some really random things in it.

A ton of these purple things.

Half way removing all the random flowers.

Andrew busting up some dirt to mix in the mulch.

After! We put up a little fence to try to keep the neighborhood kids out of it.

These are the seed that need to sprout before we plant them.


This is what we have planted: tomatoes, cucumbers, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, okra, carrots, potatoes and  red peppers. Hopefully we can keep it all alive so we can enjoy it in a few months! I think our little garden is so cute. We'll see if Andrew or I have a green thumb or not.

Some good news!

Yep! We are expecting! Due October 16,2013! Now we are at 16 weeks!
Yep two lines there!


 
All smiles on the day we found out.

Oh No!

Ha ha, just kidding. We are excited about it.

More blood work. Oh joy!

This was our 6 week ultrasound picture. They wanted to check dates since they thought I was 8 weeks.       
We are very excited about this baby coming into our lives. So far it's been a very smooth pregnancy with no morning sickness at all. Andrew thinks that it's a boy but I haven't haven't got any inkling as to what it is. I think it would be neat to have the first boy. This will be the first grandchild on Andrew's side so it's pretty exciting. We'll keep you updated on how things are going.

Trip to Indiana!

We had a lot of fun being in Indiana for awhile.
Andrew watching the airplanes.
 
Kate and Lily playing Dance central.






Aunt Wanda and I







Grandma Gloria and I
Bowling.


Kate had the best stance.

It took some coaxing but Elise finally wanted to join in.




They had this thing for kids that made it easier for them to get the ball down there. I should have used this.



Kate Lily and Elise totally killed us.
 
Andrew Megan and I should have played with bumpers.




They really liked sitting at the console.

My bestie in the whole world!



We went to the park and saw the ducks.



 This is one is of Elise saying or rather screaming at the ducks at the pond. I laugh every time I see this.
 This is andrew and the girls playing Dance central.
My friend Lyndsey at her wedding!

Some of my favorite girls Megan and Mandy

Amanda and her little Zoei and us. Miss these girls!





 I really miss everyone back in Indiana and it was great to see everyone! We even got to eat at one of my favorite places: Hacendia with Dad and Karen, and for some reason we didn't have any pictures from that. It was so fun!

Blast from the past!

These are pictures from Grandma Alzina when Mom was growing up.
Mom is on the right. She looks like Becca.

Mom as a baby. No wonder we are so cute!



Mom at some age I don't remember.

This one we were comparing how Madeline looks like Mom in this picture.

Gramppa taking a nap with Mom.

Mom had to wear these things on her legs for a bit.   

And in this picture Melissa looks just like Mom.
