She likes to cross her little ankles. Our Little lady ( sorry they are pictures of pictures.. not great quallity)

Chloe's photo shoot

20 weeks has come so fast! I can't believe I am 1/2 way done! ha. I am so excited to see my little girl. I had a little panic moment after I had spent so much time analizing her little face. I was trying to see if she looked like me or adam. I thougt her lip and nose were pretty close together in her pics and it looked like her top lip was swollen. So I went online to google images and typed in 20 week ultrasounds to see what other peoples babies look like at 20 weeks and I found that through the ultrasound all of the babies prety much had the same sweet lip. Phew.

Chloe's Dr. appoimntment

I went in for my doctors appointment today and the nurse practitioner asked if I wanted to take a peek and see how the baby has grown in the past few weeks . I was so excited that she had offered! I said YES of course!!! She asked if I knew the sex yet and I told her that I was told 80% that she is a girl. She tried to look to see if she could tell and Chloe kept crossing her ankles. WHAT A LADY!  Chloe was being a little gymnist. She would stretch her legs out straight and then throw them back up over her head! I feel her kick all of the time and it's cool to see what she is up to and what I am feeling all of the time!! She is a very active baby!

Baby Chloe

This is little Chloe @ 19 weeks along. She is moving around and kicking a ton!

Adam and I went to southern California this three day weekend. We got to see some of our good friends and went to Disney land and California Adventure on MLK day. didn't ride the roller coasters, just the kid rides. It poured all day! but we still had fun.

Baby Lulu

Baby Lulu's (Chloe's) first picture!!! taken at 8 weeks old. We saw her little heartbeat flutter @ 150 beats a minute (the old wives tale says 140 or over Girl and under 140 BOY) We are SO excited!!! She looks like a gummy bear!

Ah here we go!!! see my little tiny bump?This picture was taken pretty early and you can't really tell yet.

This is Lulu's 2nd picture taken at 12 weeks old. When I saw her up on the Ultrasound screen I asked "why doesn't she have a neck? Is she okay?" They said she is still forming and wont get her neck for a couple more weeks. Phew!! They checked her fluid between her head and neck for Down syndrome and made sure she had all 10 fingers and toes (She did)!! I got the blood work and results a couple of weeks later and they said everything looks normal.

I love this picture of her. Adam says she is his sketetor baby here. You can really see her perfectly round head and button nose. Her back is facing us but her head is turned to look at her mommy.

Christmas 2009

Ginger as a little reindeer. Over Christmas week we had our friends from church dog sit while we went to Idaho for Christmas. She had a blast with them and she got a few Christmas presents too. This is one of her gifts that she came back with. It's reindeer antlers that light up and strap on her head. She hates to have clothes or props put on her, but we make her.. at least for a cute shot!

Adam and I got a lot of great Christmas gifts this year. Mike and Patsy (Adam's parents) got us a Wii and we are very excited!

Adam did such a GREAT job this year with gifts for me... Yes he had a little help ( I made him a wish list earlier on in the year ) These are my "Dough Makers" pans and cookie sheets I had on the list. I LOVE them they make everything come out perfect!!

Dyson vs. Eureka

Adam just bought me this dyson and I adore it. My house feels so much cleaner!! I can't believe what all it picked up!! We had a Eureka before that stopped working we had so many problems with it. I am so happy for this new vacuum!! In a battle against each other the Dyson wins!!!

Farmers market fresh!

I go to our local farmers market here in Walnut Creek every Saturday. I love to go it just makes me feel healthier getting organic fruits and veggies (It's probably all in my head) As I was picking out fresh nectarines and squash I caught wind of bundles of fresh basil and got the idea that I needed to make a homemade pizza from scratch with my tomatoes and basil that I had just picked.. Here is our yummy dinner!!

Europe 2009

This Fall Adam and I took a trip to Europe. We met my brother in law Seth and good friend John Walters there. We spent 10 days on a cruise that went from Denmark to England, France, Spain, Portugal, and to Italy. We got off of the boat in Italy and rented a car and drove all over Italy for a few days. Venice was my favorite!

This stuffed cow was in a gas station we stoped at.. I dont know why but it was!

This is Seth John and I on the cruise for Formal night. Adam told me there were no formal nights on this cruise, so I didn't bring any outfits for these ocasions! I had to wear my beach dress every formal dinner! I felt I was creative!

We ended our trip in Rome and are so Happy to be back in the good ol USA!!

Ginger is excited!!

Ginger and the Goose

We like to take trips to our near by Heather Farms where our dog Ginger likes to chase the geese (She is harmless she only likes to see them fly away) This Sunday after a long nap we decided to go down to Heather & brought bread for the geese... Ginger had the time of her life !!

The 4th of July

Adam kept making the horse trot and I only wanted to take a soft stroll with the little guy... This is me freaking out.

We had a great time In Idaho for the forth of July. We played games, had BBQs, rode horses, went in the canoe! here are some pics of our trip!

Adam and his green thumb*

Adam's Garden

Adam planted tomatoes in April this year. They are his pride and joy! He comes home for lunch from work and waters them, and comes home at six after work and waters them... He definately has the green thumb! Here are some photos of our yummy tomatoes!
