Mother's Day

Nick surpassed my expectations this year for Mother's Day. I told him that all I wanted was a card, so I guess it didn't take much. However, I was impressed with his thoughtfulness. He did in fact get me a really cute card as well as a Precious Moment and a really cute box that he put the gift in. She's cute huh?


In case your missing it or somehow have not been told by someone in my family...I'm pregnant. I was going to put an exclaimation point there but since I'm just 11 weeks and feeling a little sick the excitement just hasn't hit me in full force yet. I'm beyond happy, just trying to get through this first part. However, Nick is probably excited enough for the both of us. My due date as of right now is December 1st.
Today I feel like I'm starting to show, but tomorrow I might not. Until I'm starting to show consistantly I probably won't post pictures of me but here's one of the baby we are affectionately calling El Diablo.

A Good Reason to Walk.

The tradition continued this year for all the girls to walk in the Annual Race for the Cure. This year we were lucky enough to add Momma Alice to the list of participants and even one silly baby Thomas. The race itself was just as cool to be in as always and I'm so thankful to Katie who takes on the roll of ring leader for our share of the group. We started a little behind everyone, which was kind of nice because it meant less crowds but it also meant all the treats and snacks were gone by the time we crossed the finish line. It's always such a great experience and I'm so glad that I get to share in this special tradition with the women of my family every year.


I'm already excited for next year...
