Here's lookin' at you!

Here are Madeleine's latest photos! I am 27 weeks along so almost to my third trimester. These ultrasound photos aren't as clear as the others we've had in the past....but we definately know she has at least one eye (LOL)

So, some of you may be asking yourself...what am I looking at!?!?!? The first photo you see is her head on the right and she is looking at you! In the middle abover her head is probably her tiny little arm and then on the left are her legs but it is hard to see. In the bottom picture you can see her spine.

Beautiful Sunrise

Wow, we had a beautiful sunrise this morning!

Jeff's 33rd Birthday

Jeff turned 33 today! We invited a bunch of his buddies over to watch the Seahawks get their butts kicked. Oh well, we still had fun! Thanks to everyone who made it over!

Another Step

Next stage of the patio, only one more step to go!

We're almost ready for Spring

Summer is DEFINATELY over here in Seattle, Fall is officially here. I think I heard on the news that we had a record amount of rainfall in September, more than twice what we usually have. Is that possible? Doesn't it rain enough? It certainly feels that way. Don't get me wrong, I am excited about Fall and especially Halloween (now that we actually live someplace where we will have little tricker-or-treaters ringing our doorbell!) But I would have liked a few more sunny days...but we don't care about all the rain, we are already getting ready for next year's hot summer days!

Jeff worked long and hard on laying out (on paper) our backyard and we have just begun the process of actually doing it. We had our patio laid this week (picture below). They still need to come back and put another color on top, it will have a sort of two-toned look to it. Check it out:

26 weeks

Here I am at 26 weeks! Madeleine is growing and growing...and so is the rest of my body! I feel huge everywhere and I still have a little ways to go - should be interesting! She really likes to kick and craves sugar...or is that me craving the sugar?

I am still trying to excercise a bit and our new neighborhood feels super safe! Here I am just about to go for a walk at dusk:

A True Coug Fan

Now here is a TRUE COUG Fan! Jeff couldn't get anymore excited - he has painted our garage cougar gray with the emblem in crimson. These are the true colors folks...straight from Home Depot. They specialize in team colors!
