25 Weeks and Babymoon

Here's my week 25 picture. Still no final answer on a name but I think we are getting close. And we've finally made some decisions on the nursery. I'll post on that soon but the crib has been ordered so that's the first step.

Last weekend we had our Babymoon and traveled to San Francisco. It was alot of fun but it rained most of the time we were there. Here are some pictures from the trip...

White Christmas

For Christmas this year we went up to Nebraska to see Demian's family. Brrr! It was really cold as you can imagine. Too cold to get the camera out much. Here is a picture that I made Demian take with me on Christmas Day just to prove that we had a White Christmas. The rest of the day we were huddled up at his mom's house watching movies and playing board games.

It was a good Christmas and we were blessed to be with family. We figured we probably wouldn't be traveling this time next year so we are trying to take advantage of it as we can.

As far as a baby update, I'm still feeling really good. I'm loving the feeling of her moving around in there. And D finally got to feel her this weekend. We have a few names picked out: Audrey, Claire, and Emma. We can't really agree on one but hopefully it will become clear over the next few months because I'm dying to get some monogramming done!

It's a Girl!

We found out Monday that we are having a little GIRL! I thought for sure that it was a boy so I was really surprised when they told us. I really had to totally change my train of thought but we couldn't be more excited. D said he knew all along that it was a girl.

I'm still feeling really good and really the only symptom that I have been feeling is tiredness. I'm 20 weeks along and I'm growing bigger every day. And I have just started to feel Baby P move around in there. That's an amazing feeling and I can't wait for D to be able to feel it too. After Christmas we have alot to do to get the room ready to go. Only 140 days to go!

Christmas with the Metz's - my dad is the one on the right.

Grandma celebrated her birthday on Christmas Day. She was about to turn 92 this Christmas.

Turkey Day 09

Here are some pictures of our Thanksgiving weekend. We went to Kilgore to visit my grandmother and aunts and uncles for Thanksgiving Day. My dad and his 2 brothers always host a touch football game and this year the weather was perfect for it. Here are some pictures from the big game.

Then Friday morning we went down to Baton Rouge to spend the rest of the weekend. The baby got its first Tiger gear from my sister Julie.

And here is cute Kate in her LSU outfit.
Cole and Julie in their purple and gold.

Saturday night we took D to his very first LSU game.

Here is the group before the game. D is wearing a yellow polo shirt and he had on a purple undershirt. My brother Jonathan didn't think that was good enough so he bought him a LSU sweatshirt. That is the sweatshirt hanging over his shoulder in the below picture. He did wear it later in the game though.

Julie and Mikey

Ryan and Dana

And here are some more neice and nephew pictures.

Kate and her Cutesy Cloths outfit.

And me and D

So much to be thankful for!

14 weeks

I'm 14 weeks along (almost 15) in these pictures. I didn't really think I was suppose to start showing until a little further along but I guess all the chocolate milk is catching up with me. The baby is the size of a lemon at this stage. I've loved learning about all the developmental stages each week.

I think this picture is funny - Emily and Ivan wanted that lemon so bad. I would like to think they they were just looking at me in adoration but no, they just wanted the lemon.

Baby P due May 12th!
