Girl clothes are so fun!

Measuring "the belly" for a game. Thanks everyone for thinking it was so big! ;)

Banned substances...but sooooo good!

I was so blessed to have my dear friends put together a wonderful baby shower. I was spoiled! (Well, Quinn is getting spoiled through them) We had a really nice evening visiting together and playing some fun games. We were all surprised by the nursery rhyme fill-in-the-blank...we need to do some studying! And, everyone went BIG on the guess how wide around the preggo lady is - thanks a lot! :) All in all it really was the best and Quinn and I are so lucky to have this much love and support!

Coldplay Concert

Beautiful sunset with the Columbia in the background.

Pregnant in 100 degree heat...what were we thinking?!

The ladies! :)

If you haven't been to a Coldplay concert then you are missing out! We braved the 100 degree heat to hear Coldplay at the Gorge. It is a gorgeous location with views of the Columbia River - the only problem was the extreme heat - there was no shade, no cool breeze, and even when the sun went down it was still HOT. The music was awesome and during one song they shot hundreds of thousands of tissue paper butterflies into the air - it was truly surreal. You can't beat a summer concert with some great friends and good music!

Finished Bedding Set

Thanks to my mom (the Beppe-to-be) we have a beautiful bedding set for Quinn. My mom has been sending me pieces of the set over the last couple weeks and now I have it all put together! The room is starting to feel "done" - but I'm still not ready for her arrival! I feel like there are a million more things to do (pack a hospital bag for one... and install a car seat... and finish projects at work... and... ummm, yeah, this is a bit stressful!!) Oh, we also have a really comfy glider chair thanks to the other grandparents-to-be, Chris' parents. Thank you to everyone who has helped make this room complete! Now we wait... ;)
