Baby Update - 15 weeks

I had another appointment today, I guess you could call it the "almost-4-months appt". Everything is checking out just fine! We got to hear the baby's heart rate (Tim for the first time) and it was in the 150's bpm. My blood pressure has continued to be excellent, so that has been a HUGE relief. My blood pressure was high during the entire pregnancy with Tyler. At this point with him, I was already on medication. They are going to continue to closely monitor it, but so far so good! Maybe we'll have less bumps in the road with this one! I am definitely feeling so much better - more energy and less nausea. My pants fit a bit tighter, though! It is beginning to show a little bit, but I am still at that awkward in between point where you are growing out of your normal clothes and not quite in maternity clothes yet. I am sure that will come soon enough! My next appointment is in exactly 4 weeks - the big ultrasound!!! Stay tuned!!!

Everything was perfectly beautiful!

Visit to Denver, Colorado

My mom and I had a wonderful little getaway to Denver last week. We had two very good reasons for the trip. First, to visit my sister, Suzanna, who has lived out there since February. Second, to see my very good friend Colleen McCann get married! It was a fabulous trip filled with lots of fun. We got to see a lot of the city, as well as taking a little drive to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains to see the Red Rocks Ampitheatre. Aside from the sight-seeing with Suzanna, we got to enjoy ample time with Colleen as we helped her with many wedding related things. What made the whole trip easier is that Colleen and Suzanna live 1/2 mile from each other, on the same road! Walking back and forth is a piece of cake! It was hard to come home, but I missed my boys!!! Tim and Tyler had a great time handing out together, and getting some big house projects accomplished!! Tim painted our master bedroom and bathroom, as well as Tyler's bedroom. What a hard workin' man! Here are some pictures from the trip..........
