Belly Shot (24 weeks - 6 months)!

My amazingly talented friend Tali came out when the whole family was in town to do a photo shoot for us (http://talilarosephotography.blogspot.com/). We have never had a professional photo shoot with the whole family! It was so much fun (although it was REALLY hot and humid). Sophie, Brooke and Hailey were troopers. She is still editing them, but here is one she sent me today. More to come!

Our FIRST Pet

Welcome to the newest member of our family...Charlie the Fish (aka Chuck)! We went to the Arlington County Fair (a birth month activity we do in August). The first (and only) game we played was one where you can win a fish. We really got into it and played a few rounds and ended up winning 3 fish. Since this was our first pet, we thought 3 might be too many...so we gave two away and kept one. It took a few minutes of walking around and analyzing different families before I could give the other 2 away (I wanted to make sure they would go to good homes). I was really anxious to get Charlie the Fish some food and put him in a bowl, so we left the fair (after 20 minutes). Actually, I was probably more anxious Josh was going to give him to a kid knowing I couldn't ask for it back...so, we left right away!

Our winnings!

Happy Charlie in his new home!

Birthday Fun

For my actual birthday Josh and his parents surprised me and got us a hotel for 2 nights in DC. It was so perfect! We got to "get away" without actually traveling. I didn't have to cook, clean or worry about a thing. It was funny because I could actually see Rosslyn (where we live) from our hotel window. On Monday (my birthday), we went paddle boating at the Jefferson Memorial (one of my favorite DC activities), then shopping in Georgetown (another one of my favorite DC activities), and had a really nice dinner at BLT. It was the most perfect day! Josh was such a sport! Thanks sweetie for such a great birthday!

How cute is he? He carried my shopping bags around Georgetown for me!

Chocolate covered strawberries from Lon and Leslee...thanks for everything!

Grandma's Go Shopping!

I wanted both my mom and Leslee to get a feel of what shopping for Baby D was really like (overwhelming)! Needless to say, we had to take a "gliding" break to snack on some twizzlers and rest.

Opening Ceremonies in Cincinnati!!

Birthday month has officially begun...

Cake that Leslee got (made out of cupcakes)!

Opening Ceremony Luncheon

Mom had a lunch with some of her friends in honor of opening ceremonies for Mrs. Pratt's and my birth month! It was really just a good excuse to eat lots of cake and cupcakes with her really sweet friends! Thanks Mom!

The cake!

Wedding Weekend in Kentucky

We had a great time with the Bargers (and all of Josh's UK friends) in Lexington for Craig's wedding!
