Maternity Leave

A co-worker sent me this image today. I thought it was pretty funny.

17 Weeks

Bump City! I think it's safe to say I'm past the "Is she just fat or pregnant stage?" Yay!!!

16 Weeks

I bought my first outfits for the Babeski! A set of four onesies and two pairs of pants. I thought they were so cute. I even got all misty eyed as I picked them out.


On Tuesday this week I think I felt my first baby flutter. It was on the way home from work. It felt like someone with a tiny little fin was doing a few kicks, and the water was fluttering. I only felt it that one time, and haven't felt it since. I'm still waiting anxiously for more!

15 Weeks and 2 days, and growing by the minute!

Denver Day 4

On our last day in Colorado, we went to Mount Evans, which is the highest drivable mountain in America (14,000 feet!). There were lots of sharp curves, no guard rails, and a very nervous passenger (me). The views were incredible though. It's so peaceful.

Notice the snow storm we're in the middle of at the top of the mountain. It was freezing, and blowing so hard!!

After we made our way back down the mountain, we went to Sushi Sasa for dinner. We got a sushi sampler, and I think I had the best California rolls of my life. I like California rolls, but I also like to get a little more adventurous with my rolls than crab meat so I typically don't order them often or at all. These ended up being my favorite rolls of the evening! We sat at the bar, so we got to watch the chefs prepare all the food. It was a great, little place. Very contemporary and hip, but casual at the same time. We walked in with our fleeces and jeans on, and no one batted an eyelash. I wouldn't mind returning to this place someday.

The following day Brett and I went home. It was a great trip. I can't wait to go back and visit our friends again!
