Right after the holidays this year, Mark and I got a belated holiday gift when we found out I was expecting. It was a gift we have been very grateful for because it came on it's own. Yay for no drugs this time! We have been very blessed as I have made it through the first trimester and all the way to 27 weeks now--about the same time Lucy came. These pictures are from 14 weeks and five days.
It's a boy!!!!! We are thrilled to be having one of each!
After the first trimester, my next goal was to carry the baby to my birthday on May 24 where
I would be exactly 24 weeks. I made it! It was the best birthday present ever to know that if the baby was born early it would have a chance of survival.
I had a fun filled birthday this year. Mark took me to lunch at my favorite restaurant the Pastry Pub. That afternoon we got a babysitter while we went to the movie "Epic" on opening day because his work rented out a whole theater. It was so fun to go out to a movie and especially a free one! I don't think we had been to a movie since before Lucy was born. What made it even better too was that my birthday fell on Memorial Day weekend and a bunch of my family came to visit that night. My sister Julie and niece Mollie came just in time to come with us to the movie. What a great day!

Beth... I am SO excited for you!!! What an awesome birthday present! You don't even look like you're pregnant in the pictures from Memorial Day weekend. When are you due then? It is SO much fun to have both genders! You will love having a boy around... even though they seem to be way busier and louder and a little crazier than girls! :)I'm glad you are doing well! I hope I can see you sometime soon! Love you!
