Washington and a few other things!

I have quite a bit to catch up on since it has been a while since my last post. We just got back from spending an amazing 10 days up in Yakima, Washington with the Mickelsons! It was so fun to be able to relax and escape from everything...needless to say we both are a little bummed to be back.
First of all...

Happy Birthday to my Dad!
On June 2, we were able to celebrate my dad's birthday since we would be leaving to Washington the following day...his REAL birthday! I am so lucky to have such an amazing dad. I really couldn't ask for a better one!

This next picture is mostly for Kelly. But this is a picture of the nightgowns I plan on making for our baby! Aren't they adorable?

Here is another tummy picture...at 20 1/2 weeks! Just in the past week my stomach has started to pop out even more. Not too much..but it is still weird! I can feel her move around all the time now! She is getting so strong. Every once in a while she will throw quite the punch or kick:) I think she thinks it's funny to kick around down low because it makes me have to go to the bathroom haha!

Michael's parents bought us this gift for our baby...I LOVE IT!! It is so perfect and I can't wait to see her in it! Thanks guys!

Here is another picture. I really can't handle how much I love it!

Rachel wanted to make a blanket for the baby while we were there and she let me help. Rachel is so creative! We kind of struggled with the corners at first because of me..but thanks to her it turned out perfectly.

Kelly has some friends that are absolutely amazing at making little baby clips and headbands. We were able to get together with them and learn how to make them. Seriously I am addicted. I plan on making a clip or headband to match every one her outfits haha. It is so fun and so cheap! This is a little daisy clip that I will have to clip onto a headband for her since most likely she will be bald for a while.

I also learned to tie these bows to put on clips. Seriously I can't get enough of it!

We were able to go on a little hike. It was my first time really getting out since I have been off the bed rest. It was so fun to walk around even though it was quite hot. I thought I was doing so good and was quite impressed with myself until we got home and I crashed for pretty much the rest of the day. I am not a big water drinker so I think I just got a bit dehydrated. It was still a blast and Michael and I hope to get out a lot this summer!

My boy and me

We had a perfect 10 days shopping for baby clothes, baby hair things, eating snow cones and amazing food, visiting parks and seeing turtles, playing skipbo, watching Matthew make some great shots at a basketball game, golfing, watching movies and so much more. It was so fun to see the family and spend time together!
