Today Jackie and I celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary. Given that we’re going to have a baby in a little over a week, we couldn’t exactly paint the town. So we went and had a fanastic seafood dinner at a local restaurant and then watched the movie “What Happens in Vegas”. We’re now going [...]
We went to see our doctor for Jackie’s 36 week ultrasound today. As we suspected, Addison hasn’t flipped yet and remains breached. She’s not even born, and she’s already being stubborn! They’ve scheduled a C-section for Jackie at 7:30 AM on October 8. Jackie’s not too crazy about having a C-section, but I know that [...]
Jackie’s working on her 35th week of pregnancy now. We’re getting close! We have the nursery 99% ready – we just have to buy a changing table. We bought our first packs of diapers this week which was – strangely enough – kind of fun. Here are some pics of Jackie and the nursery:
We’re officially at 34 weeks, and Jackie and Addison are still doing fine. Jackie had her latest ultrasound today, and Addison is 6 pounds and perfectly healthy. The only thing we’re watching is the fact that she’s still breached. We’re really hoping she turns her little stubborn self the right direction in the next few [...]

We were able to go to Colorado again this year to visit Jackie’s family. The girls, Jordyn and Karlee, were gearing up for school since they only had a couple of weeks left of their summer vacation. It was time to buy school supplies and clothes and get out of that habit of sleeping till [...]
Jackie is now in her 28th week. She visited the doctor last week for a regular checkup, and everything is looking great. The only issue is that the doctor would like her to gain more weight than she has so far. Jackie tends to eat like a rabbit so we’ve busted out the blender and [...]
We headed to my parents’ new house for the weekend. I wasn’t feeling well so I didn’t get to help Dad work on the basement as much as I wanted, but he’s made tremendous progress on finishing it out. We did manage to get the new bathtub in place and finish some of the framework [...]
Addison Evelyn to be precise. Jackie and I have finally decided on a name for our little girl. Jackie’s currently in her 25th week and doing great. And she FINALLY started getting a belly!
Jackie’s family came in to visit for a week. I actually got to meet her Uncle Randy and his family whom I had never seen before. Her Aunt Adele, soon-to-be Uncle Dale, and her two cousins – Jordan and Karlee came in as well. Her cousin T.J. came in too, and that was my first [...]
