Gibb and Marina Arrive in the Big Apple

Gibb and Marina arrived yesterday (Sunday, Jan. 18th). We went straight to Rosa Mexicana for dinner with the McGills- Jodi, Tony, Wryder, Dennis and Sarah. It was so nice to have dinner together after a year- Gibb and Marina look great and are excited for their new adventures in Germany. They leave NYC on Wednesday so more pictures to follow.

South Carolina Baby Shower

Thank you to all our family and friends who continue to love and support baby Aldo!

Computer Broken

My computer is broken at the moment so there will be no pictures until I can get up to Best Buy to figure out the problem. Here is an update on what's going on:

*We went to SC and GA for the holidays and enjoyed every minute......We were able to visit tons of family and friends. My mom, Aunt Pat, and Ida threw us a baby shower on the 30th! It was so nice to be around loved ones to celebrate Aldo's upcoming birth!

*Tony and I went to see Dr. Jew yesterday for my 7 1/2 month visit. Another sonogram showed our little man- he is so cute! I am on track with everything so far: weight gain, blood work, etc. We had a fairly uneventful visit. I feel great and have about two more months until we are finally holding our baby boy!

*My brother, Gibb, finally made it home safe after a year in Iraq. We are eager to see he and Marina in about a week- they will be coming to NYC Jan. 18th. After they travel for a bit they will be shipping out for Germany, where Gibb will be stationed for about 3 years. I can not wait to see he and Marina!!!!

That's about it for now......more to come.....

7 months and Project Baby Room Pics

Dec. 17, 2008
Here I am in front of our Christmas tree 7 months and counting. I have been feeling great! Even though I have been very clumsy...I feel on my old lady laundry cart the other day and then today I fell at Jodi's house. We called the doctor and as long as the baby is still moving and I feel okay then all should be good. This week we had our 7 month doc. appt. and I luckily don't have gestational diabetes! Dr. Jew informed us that I still have anemia and should be supplementing my prenatal vitamin with an iron pill. As far as Aldo's room goes- Tony is in charge. (well most of the time- haa). He was busy this weekend painting it BLUE. He is planning some accent stripes and once we get the furniture in the room will start looking complete. This is an exciting time for us and we are so glad to have our families and friends to share it with. Happy Holidays- we love you!!

Oh Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree.....

This weekend we had two Christmas parties. Here are pictures from our little gathering on Friday night! The picture of Brett, Tony and the baby is classic!

Tabitha's in NYC!

Tabitha came to NYC to visit us this weekend. We had a blast seeing the holiday sites, going to see a Broadway show, Central Park, dinners, etc. As you will see the baby bump is growing. I am 6 1/2 weeks (26 weeks) today. Things are going great both in my pregnancy and in life! Tabitha's visit was much needed!! I love you Tabby!!

Movember comes to an end........

Tony wants to thank all of the people who helped him raise $1,050 for men's health during the month of November! His mustache was a success but I was glad to see it go- haa haa. I am so proud of him!! He is already getting excited about Bearduary!
