Last week I was out in California for my first baby shower!! Had a wonderful time! So good to see family and friends. Will post pics from that soon. Here is my 31wk picture. She is in the head down position and is doing great. Not sure how big she is currently, will find out at my next ultrasound, but I have gained 15pds!! She likes to move around alot and gives me lots of back pain. Fun Times!!

28wks!! Lily is now 2lbs and 12oz. and my belly is measuring perfect at 28cm. The ultrasound tech at my last appointment said she has long limbs. I am thinking that she has a very good chance of being tall! And I have gained 12 pds. The doctor said I could eat more ice cream if I want.. but I am thinking that my once a week or so is pretty good! She loves to move around when I am trying to sleep and first thing in the morning. I am having a hard time eating big meals, I think that she has taken over my tummy space!! Still so much to do over the next 12wks. Heading out to CA for my first baby shower! Very excited to see all my west coast friends!

Had a great brunch with friends visiting from Orlando! Always good times!

Things are moving along very well, and quickly!! We have ordered her crib (thanks Grandad for buying it for us!!) and the recliner for the nursery, now it's just a waiting game until it arrives. Could be as early as 6 weeks! Lily should be about 2 pds now, and her eyes should be open also. Wonder if we will be able to tell at the next ultrasound, this Friday. I will keep you posted!!

Sunday for Easter, we started our day at the Lincoln Park Zoo. It is a free zoo, right next to Lake Michigan. It was a perfect day! Spring has finally sprung here in Chicago!!

And here we are at 24wks. Yep, that's my belly, now making its way out!! Easter weekend, and I am not going to feel guilty at all for eating lots of strawberry rhubarb pie!! Yummy!! Can't even imagine what next Easter will be like!! I am thinking pictures with the Easter Bunny!! Lily is going to be so cute in her little outfits! I will probably be "that parent" that dresses her daughter up for every holiday!!

Lily is now 1pd 7oz, 4/2/10. And I have maybe gained 9pds total. What happened to the other 7 something??
