The past few months have been really busy for us, which in part explains why I haven't written in a while...sorry. In April Tim and I found out that we are having a little girl...Lilybelle. It was a cool experience and comforting that everything came back normal on the ultrasound. I never thought I'd be so happy to hear the word normal. We kept it under wraps for about a week, (so long I know) and revealed it to Tim's family with a cake (as seen below). She also got a closet full of dresses courtesy of her Nana who kept all of my dresses from when I was a baby. Thanks Mom! All I can say is, it's a good thing that her closet is bigger than mine.

Also in April, Tim decided to rip up our carpet in our living room/dining room to reveal the not so pretty hardwood floors underneath. That's what I get for working a Saturday. A few weeks later though I had very pretty hardwood floors. But it's not a process I recommend. The stuff you put on the floors to seal them stinks so bad, so I spent a week at my parents house. It was nice to be back home, and I had a good visit with my parents.

In May my new car arrived. Yep we finally did it. I upgraded from my 1996 Saturn to a new 2012 Subaru. Such a difference! We had planned on getting a new car at the end of this year, but moved it up so that Lilybelle would come home in the new car, plus I didn't want to have to change out the car seat after a few months.
I'll try to keep everyone better updated in the summer, but for now here's a baby bump picture.
