Week 25!

Critter is already so loved!!  Had a blast at our baby shower this past weekend. So grateful for all the people that came out or were there in spirit.  Poor Stephanie got grounded in Chicago due to an incident at the air traffic control tower.

Group shot before Taboo.  We didn't get Kimie in the pic!

However, we did get a pic of Kimie's awesome cake! It was so cute and super delicious!

Travel buddies.

25 weeks, with our love bug Ender.

This is the best picture! It's Frances with Mom!
The Taiwan house still has all the same fixtures and cabinets you see behind them. Crazy!

24 Weeks!

We watched the Clemson game at Brian and Frances's place this week.  It was a bit demoralizing! But, Crits is already a big football fan - he really loved the cookies and cheese dip.  He's moving like crazy now, and he always gives Tom a little nudge when Tom puts his hand on my stomach. 

In other news, made some pumpkin spice baby booties this week - and they are now up on CraftGawker! Exciting!

From our other blog, SaltyCrafts. The linen is all bunched up because it's just a curtain.
Tom was holding it up for me. Ha! He really enjoyed that.

Super tired after my blood draw today. I must be anemic. Will find out tomorrow! Tom says hello to everyone!

Back to life as usual over here- went to an art festival with my friend Dora, and Tom and I walked the Beltline. Otherwise, just taking it easy! Oh! And we can actually see LC moving now- so crazy!!!

Hope everyone is well!

Love,

B

Time is really picking up speed now. I keep running into old students, and the reaction is always, "Woah! Congratulations!"

Before our walk. We are trying to swim/walk every day now. Saw Tom's grandma this week. She recommends elevating your feet every chance you get. I agree - even compression stockings are not quite enough to get through 6 hours of teaching.

Tom's family in Newport this week. We managed to squeeze in a visit. I love Tom's family - they are the nicest! We played a few rounds of a game called Can Jam - highly recommend!

At Hoa and Geoff's wedding. Used Rent the Runway for my dress - so nice not needing to buy or pack a dress.  Laura is 31 weeks along! Laura was also appalled by the cost of infant care. Good to know we are not alone. Christine has such pretty hair - I will have to ask how she got those waves.

Hoa and Geoff's wedding was beautiful (notice the uplighting in back)!  Tom looking super handsome and tall, as always. Hope Crits gets Tom's cute nose - but more important for Crits to be healthy!

It's hard to see here - but those are hockey mascots in the back!! a Tribute to Geoff's love of hockey.

We celebrated Frances's birthday by renting a house on Lake Geneva this past Labor Day. Had a great time! Frances's friends are really nice.

We went out to dinner at the Baker House.  They have a million hats there that you can try on throughout dinner.  This is me and the General.

Me with Peter Pan.

Frances in a pink frilly hat!

Critter is growing fast now - had to buy more maternity clothes, because my "flow-y" clothes are no longer flow-y.

Also made a video for Frances's Birthday! We need Burt's help with titles, I think....

Maine and MA pics!

Finally uploaded pics from the camera- turns out it is easy!

Chowder and lobster roll time!

Super cold/wet day!

But was beautiful the next day!

The fam- along Marginal Way in Ogunquit, Maine!

How cute are these lobster aprons!

Tom the Explorer.

Love Tom's shirt (from his parents).  Perfect for a clam bake!

The beautiful couple!

Still haven't uploaded the Maine pics -but here's a preview. Delicious!

Fourth serving of lobster during our New England getaway. Tanya and Stu's amazing clambake!

Yeah! Hoa and Geoff came to visit this week. We've missed them! The bear gave us daps.

Laundry room glamour shot! Most amazing thing this week- Tom can feel Critter move! Wow! Critter is a kicker! Tom's been imitating what Crits must be doing in the womb. Ha.
