Weekend in DC

Well, I don't think that I have many blog followers who don't also follow my sister's blog, but I really wanted to put these pictures up on mine too! Luke and I took a great (but short!) trip to DC this weekend so that I could go to Sarah's baby shower for Cooper and so that Luke could be there with Dustin to see Clemson destroy FSU =) Seriously though, we had a wonderful time with Sarah and Dustin and Wesley and are so excited to see them again in a couple weeks when we can meet Cooper too! Here are a couple of pictures from the weekend.

Sarah and I at the baby shower. 37 and 26 weeks pregnant, respectively!



Wesley and I before our walk to the park and Eastern market before we left on Sunday.



Thanks for a great weekend, Sarah, Dustin and Wesley and we'll see you soon!

100 days!

We have finally reached the 100 day mark! 180 days down and 100 to go. Only 100 days until our due date of February 13 (not that she'll come on that day in all likelihood, but close enough)! Sometimes 100 days seems like it's so far away, but then I know that it's really not that far at all, especially with everything we have coming up in the next couple months: our school musical Annie Jr. in 2 weeks, spending Thanksgiving in DC for the birth of our new nephew Cooper Andrew Hanks, December concerts for my chorus and orchestra, spending Christmas break with Luke's family, and then February will be right around the corner!

So I guess now it's time to really start getting ready for her arrival! We really haven't started any decorating of the nursery (but we have ideas!), or buying/registering for baby things, so we really do need to start that. We did just sign up for our Preparing for Childbirth class at the hospital though which starts in a couple weeks. Should be fun!

Well, she's doing some pretty intense kicking right now, so maybe she's hungry...or maybe I'm just hungry, but I'll blame it on her! Off to get some dinner!
