Boston

Our last stop was Boston. Drew and I both agreed that Boston was the most charming city. Our favorite things were Newbury Street, The Duck Tour and Boston Common. We had so much fun on our trip but now it's nice to be home!

Outdoor shopping near the harbor.

New York

We had the most fun in New York thanks to Lynn and Porter! Our favorite things in NYC were: going to dinner at a restaurant that overlooks the Statue of Liberty, going to visit Porter at Fox News, eating ice cream at Serendipity, Lynn's surprise 31st birthday party, going to Central park and seeing Melanie and her girls. Here are the pics from NYC.

Here we are with Bill O' Reilly (I know Gramma S. will like this one). He was very nice and very tall!
Heraldo Rivera. He was very friendly and seemed very down to earth.
Bill Hemmer. He was great. He even asked us to sit down so we could chat a little bit.
Melanie and her girls.
We saw Matt Damon filming a movie.

Washington DC

Drew and I just got back from an eleven day trip to Washington DC, New York and Boston. DC was our first stop. It was beautiful and the weather was perfect! Our favorite part of DC was the night we went to Georgetown for dinner. It is an adorable little area with tons of shops and restaurants. We also looked at all of the monuments, which was fun but lots of walking for a 33-week pregnant lady and a guy with a hurt ankle! Drew sprained his ankle really badly and tore a ligament right before we left for our trip. Here are some pics from DC.

Phoenix Baby Shower

My mom and sisters threw me a beautiful baby shower while I was home for my sisters' graduation. It was a crazy weekend with two graduations, a graduation party, Jake's prom and my baby shower! We all had a great time though! Thanks again you guys for the baby shower!

27 week ultrasound

Drew and I went for our 4D ultrasound today. It was very exciting. At first, the baby was facing my spine. They had me get up and do a few exercises. The moving around woke up the baby and it faced the camera-yay! Everything looks great and they confirmed the sex. The baby even smiled a few times and it was so cute!!! Right now the baby is a little over two pounds and around 15 inches long. I am in my third trimester and have 12 weeks and 3 days to go. We can't wait to meet out little bundle of joy! Here are a few pictures from the ultrasound.

Courtney's Visit and Easter

Courtney came in town late Wednesday night and just left this evening. It was so nice having her here but as always I was sad to see her go! We had a great time while she was here. We went out to lunches, did a little shopping, played bingo and went out one night. Here are a few pictures from our long weekend.
At bingo

Out on Saturday to watch the Final Four.

Easter Sunday. We went to church, had brunch at home and then were lazy and watched Dumb and Dumber.
