We have been doing great at home with baby- she likes to stay up all night, but what baby doesn't? We are so in love with our little miracle! Here are More baby pictures!

Here she is posing with the beautiful flowers from family:

23 days...

23 days, 23 days, 23 days! I wish they would hurry up already! I am so insanely pregnant that movement has become one of my least favorite things.

We installed the car seat today- that was pretty exciting. It took a good while to make sure it's in there safely, but we figure it out.

I am so excited for the next 2 months. Getting back to school with a baby will be a challenge, but we have already picked out our classes so that while I am in school, Rob is home and vice versa. Squishing jobs into the open time slots may make it confusing, but we have some creative ideas.

The next post will be when we have the baby! Yay!

26 Weeks and Counting...

We are so close to welcoming a new member to our family! March 22nd, doesn't seem so far away anymore. The excitement has definitely been sinking in these past few weeks as we have begun to receive baby gifts.

A lot of people have been asking if we picked a name- and we did! Her name will be:

Kathryn Francine Barrett (but you can call her Katie)

It feels so good to have the semester over with. Pregnancy and education do NOT mix well. Luckily I have the winter semester off and won't be due back in school until mid-April. Juggling classes with a baby will be an interesting endeavour, but with only 2 semesters left, we can do it.

It's a....

Girl!

It's official!

We are having a baby!

We found out in July and have been anticipating our 12 week mark. We finally made it and decided to blog it.

I had my first appointment out here in Rexburg and it was great. They showed us the baby and we could see him/her moving and kicking around. It's a very active kid apparently. They gave me a picture and also a DVD that shows it all. I am going to try to load that vid up, but it may take me a while.

In the meantime, enjoy our picture of baby Barrett! For age and development info, check out the top right of this blog. Cool, I know.

another lame post

As July ends we have recently been given A LOT to think about... and it's kept me thinking!

Last weekend we made a surprise trip up to NH to see the family for a day. It was a busy day trying to see everyone, but it was worth it! I was able to get some good family pics, see my dad's intense weight loss and even bounce in the new bounce houses at BOUNCE-U.

I am slowly getting through my eternal checklist that I had at the beginning of the summer. It feels good to get stuff done! Classes are ending this Wednesday, which is a major relief that I am so excited about. It will be nice to have a break from studying for the next 7 weeks.
