New York Trip/painting baby's room

Todd and I went to New York last weekend for Therese and Jesse's wedding (in the Hamptons...fancy!:) and had so much fun! Unfortunately, my camera is having issues loading pics, so I only have a few pics I can post (from my i-phone), and they aren't real clear. (*I uploaded some better pics finally!) I feel kind of bad that we didn't take full advantage of being in New York City (we didn't see a lot of the typical tourist attractions), but we've both been to NYC 4 times now, so decided to make this a lazy trip to the Big Apple. :) We spent a lot of time with Kelley Beaman (one of my besties) in Brooklyn, so that was lots of fun. She took us to this cupcake shop close to China Town called "Sugar Sweet Sunshine" and it was AMAZING (better than Sprinkles even!! ) I highly suggest making a trip there if you're in NYC anytime soon. It's fun having two good friends that live in the big city and can  guide you around and take you to non-touristy places that are just fabulous. :) We also took a tour of the NBC studios and were able to see where Saturday Night live, a football News show, and the NYC NBC Nightly News is taped. That was something we'd never done before.

As far as baby is coming along, he's moving and kicking like crazy and  now weighs over 2 lbs! We went to the doc. this Friday and got to hear his heartbeat, but unfortunately we didn't get to see him this time...BUT our next visit in Feb. will be the 3-d/4-d sonogram!! :) We are soooo excited!!! I just hit the third trimester and have had some pretty funky stuff going on (extremely swollen feet: will post pics as soon as my camera cooperates, bladder infection, and some other things you don't want to know about! HAHA!) The bladder infection thing is getting better thanks to some prego-safe antibiotics and lots of water. Well, I'll try to post more often for those of you that are reading. Until then, Happy Winter!

Back to Work!

It's been way too long since I've blogged! This was the first week Todd and I had to go back to work, and it went by pretty fast, luckily. Christmas break was perfect. We got tons of giftcards (which gives me an excuse to eat out a lot!). I finished all the Twilight books and am looking for something else that's just as good to read. Those books were incredible, and I am not ashamed to admit that I'm a bit obsessed. I have already planned on having Todd babysit on June 30th so I can be one of those obsessed people that wait in line for hours on opening night of Eclipse!

Our last doctor visit was on December 21st and Nanny Karen (Todd's mom) got to go with us. :) She was really excited to see him and to hear his little heartbeat. Everything looks good and hopefully in the next month we'll have some 3-D untrasounds to post. So exciting!


I'm officially 25 weeks along today and am gaining weight like crazy! :) My appetite is now noticibly that of a pregnant lady. When you can eat two Jack in the box tacos, eat at Texas Roadhouse 2 hours later and STILL be able to order dessert....that's a pretty healthy appetite!  HAHA! Here are the latest pics of the baby bump, some pics of his baby bedding (which we spent a fortune on...but it's well worth it...he's already spoiled!), and a few photos from Christmas. I may have to write a whole other blog so I can catch up on all that's happened! New York is next weekend, so stay tuned for that blog. :)
