Little Aubree is Here!




Just an update: Amanda had her baby on June 15! Aubree was just over 4 lbs. and she is cute as a button! I'm sure that Amanda will be posting tons of pics when she is recovered, but I just wanted to spread the good word! :)

I did it!!

Yay! I was able to add a picture! So - here it is, our baby's 2nd photo - at 12 weeks and 2 days, this is our little blob :) Although, arguably, starting to look much more human now than his/her last picture :) Our appointment went very well yesterday -- we heard the heartbeat and got to see the little guy jumping around in my stomach. So weird how much they move around, yet I don't feel a thing!!!

First time blogger

Hi ladies! Sarah, I've really tried to find this "layouts" thing that you mentioned to add my little bio on the side, but it doesn't seem to be there...or probably, I'm not looking in the right place! I did find this "write a post" link, so I thought I'd dive right in! I have never posted anything but comments on a blog, so you are all going to have to bear with me while I figure this out :)
Anyway, first a quick introduction - my name is Erika and I am Sarah's cousin (well, cousin-in-law, right?) - technically Matt is my cousin :) My husband and I live in the NW suburbs of Chicago and are expecting our first baby in December!! I am about 12 weeks now and am going for my second doctor's appointment tomorrow when we hope to hear the heartbeat! I tried to post a picture of our first ultrasound that we got at my last appointment, but I guess blogger doesn't want me to, so that will have to wait :) So far, my pregnancy has been a breeze (should I say that - or am I just jinxing myself)....I only had about a week that I felt a little off, but nothing major and my pants still fit me! :) We'll see what's in store, though, now that we're heading into the 2nd trimester!
I'm looking forward to hearing what you guys have to say on here and will try to contribute on my end!!! Thanks for organizing this Sarah!! And I swear, we will get down there to see your beautiful Phoebe sooner or later!!!
