Baby C - 20 Weeks!

It is hard to believe that this pregnancy with little Baby C is half over! I haven't really blogged about it too much since it has been relatively easy. The morning sickness was a bit rough the first 3 months, but since that has subsided it has been much easier than with the girls. I am not nearly as large that's for sure! The biggest news is that we found out our newest edition is a boy! Something our entire family is very excitied about. Although I have to say I think Nonno and Kathryn are the most excited! Kevin and I were just estatic that he was healthy, neither of us really had a preference on gender. Although I think Kevin is really glad that there will be a little more testosterone in the house!
I was fortunate enough to have some 4D ultrasounds done by Dad. Some of them are still pictures others are video clips. Of course, Kevin and I already think he is the most beautiful little boy!
And on the first slide you are not reading that wrong...it says age 22 weeks! He was 19week 5days when these were taken, needless to say he is measuring a bit large for his age! Dosen't look like he is going to be a tiny peanut like his sisters when he's born!

Mothers Day

For Mothers Day this year the whole family went to Highfield Discovery Garden. The girls of course LOVED it, and I think the rest of the family had a pretty good time too. Here are some pictures of the day.


Chicago Field Museum




Chicago and American Girl Place!

We spent a couple days in Chicago as a mini-vacation. I had to go up for work for just one day so we all made the drive and extended our stay. After all the fun things we did, the girls favorite part was still the "twisty doors" (revolving doors) and taxi's!

While I was at work Kevin took the girls to Navy Pier.

We started our second day off in the Windy City with a view from the John Hancock Observatory.
Then it was off to American Girl Place for the rest of the morning!
At the American Girl Salon with our Bitty Babies
Look how pretty they look after their "baths"!
Lunch at American Girl... so cute! They even had chairs, plates, and cups for the babies! And the food was presented as every little girl would dream of. Perfect lunch for little girls!

After lunch we went and visted all "Mommy's workers" in the Chicago office.

Then later that night we went to Rainforest Cafe for dinner.
