Ninja Bug

We're not quite sure why, but we refer to our little baby as the "Ninja Bug.'  The ninja part comes from the fact that we can hardly tell it's really there.  Especially at the beginning, I didn't get sick, and I wasn't showing, so even though the nurse said there was a baby in there, it was hard to believe.  We figured this whole thing was going to sneak up on us and before we knew what hit us, we'd have a baby!  Just like a Ninja right? to sneak up on you, and you don't know what hit you until it's over.  For whatever reason, the nickname stuck.  One day I called it a bug, and David seemed to think that was really cute, so we added that too.  Who knows what this kid will be called in the end!  But we love it so much already!  We're so excited to not call it "It" anymore.  I want to know if it's a girl baby or a boy baby.  I ask it all the time, but we won't really know for about two more weeks.

Here are the first sightings of our little Ninja Bug at almost 13 weeks! (We're now at 17 weeks).
 I am in love!


"Hi, Mom & Dad!"  I love this one!

Valentine's Day 2012

David was in charge of our Valentine's Day activities this year, we take turns every other year.  So, he planned for us to go out to eat, he got me some flowers, the chapstick I love, and a gift certificate for a manicure!  We also had some delicious fondue!  He did a great job planning everything and we had a great night. 

This is right before we went out to dinner!  My date is so handsome!!

We went to Macaroni Grill and had a delicious dinner!  We've only been there once before, about 4 or 5 years ago.  But the hostess sat us in the same booth we ate at before!  
These are the yummy things that we dipped into the fondue.  It was so yummy, David did a great job!


As my gift to David, I got him a bunch of balloons filled with love notes, and some chocolate.  It's always fun to take time and think of all the things I love about my David.  I'm so lucky to have him in my life and he makes me so happy.  We have fun together and I'm looking forward to lots more Valentine's Days together.  It's also super fun that Valentine's Day marks our 1/2 anniversary.  So this Valentine's Day we celebrated 1.5 years together!  



I LOVE this boy!!

A Special Gift


I know that Christmas was forever ago, but I wanted to share at least one picture from our trip to Pennsylvania.






This is the gift we gave David's parents for Christmas.  Needless to say, they were thrilled, as were my parents and other family members.  David and I are so excited to welcome a new addition to our family later this year!!
