Abigail Street

For Abigail's second birthday, we celebrated her favorite friends (Bert, Ernie, Grover, Big Bird, and Cookie Monster) with a Sesame Street themed party!


Unlike last year, she really noticed the details, so it was a lot of fun putting this party together.  Special items included two huge Big Bird and Elmo balloons, a bubble machine (that was a hit with all the kids!), Mac and Cheese and Potato Salad (birthday girl's favorites), and a handmade banner that took 5 hours waaaay too long to make  :)

We invited Abigail's closest friends, a few of her baby friends, and lots of family over for a party which tipped the scale at 40+ (so much for that low-key plan...)

Here are some pictures from the day.  I'm not sure if she'll remember this party some day, but I sure will... being pregnant and hauling tables, tents, and chairs around; making over sized banners, and cutting numerous decor items isn't exactly what 35 week pregnant ladies crave, but seeing her reactions was worth every moment of work.


Even Molly dressed up as Dorthy for the occassion  :)

Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate Abigail's big day.  Your presence was the greatest gift of all!

Bring it on, Terrible Twos  :)

20 week ultrasound

Yesterday Kevin and I went to our 20 week ultrasound.  Everything looked great and the two questions still lingering in my mind were confirmed. 1) Yes, it's a boy! 2) Nope, I'm not having twins  :) I've heard it a million times: with each pregnancy you pop a little sooner, but when I was in maternity pants at 12 weeks, I thought surely there must be two in there... Here are some pictures, if you'd like to see. During George's 20 week ultrasound Kevin admitted he'd almost fallen asleep, so I will admit: I had a hard time staying awake this time  :) But we did get to see him in 4D ultrasound which we've never done before, so that was really cool. So fun! After our appointment we went to breakfast at Salish Lodge and took my first Month of Bumps picture. (cue shrills of excitement from everyone eager to see belly pics for the next 4 months!) Before taking the picture I (lovingly) assured Kevin that yes, we would be taking...
