Baby's Room!

Hi there,

We have made significant progress in the nursery so I thought I'd share some pictures with everyone. We aren't completely finished, I still have a few finishing touches that I need to complete but we are in really good shape. Enjoy!













Here's a close-up of the bedding and another view of the crib.











Here are pictures of the rocker and the window valance.














Here are pictures of the changing table. If you look closely, you'll see Chloe!










Check back soon for more pictures!
Love,
Kim

3rd Trimester!

Hi everyone,
It seems like just yesterday that Greg and I find out that I was pregnant! Can you believe I'm already in the 3rd trimester?! Time sure does fly when you're having fun! I had a doctor appointment this past Monday where they tested me for gestational diabetes. I tested negative for it but found out that I'm anemic. After doing some research, I found out that about 50% of pregnant women are anemic so it's not that uncommon. I'm starting to take iron pills so that should help. I will also supplement the pills with foods that are high in iron. :) I found out that I gained 7 pounds in 4 weeks...WOW! I've been so hungry lately so the baby and I must be going through a growth spurt. It concerned me at first to know I gained so much in just 4 weeks but I'm not going to let it bother me. I want to make sure our baby is well-nourished and healthy! I've been continuing to walk 4 times a week which will hopefully help me have an easier labor and delivery!

In other news, we've ordered the baby's furniture and it should arrive next week. We'll be busy painting and getting everything ready so be sure to check back on the progress!

We hope you all have a great weekend!
Love,
Kim and Greg (and baby girl)

Baby Love!

Hi everyone,

Sorry it has been a while since I last wrote. Last weekend, Greg and I actually went to Chicago. Since we got married there and have a lot of family and friends there, it only seemed appropriate to have a baby shower there! It was really good to be back and to see everyone! Everyone is so excited for Greg and I, and for our baby girl. She's so lucky to have such wonderful family and friends full of BABY LOVE! It was a beautiful shower so I want to thank my mom and mother-in-law for being such wonderful hostesses.










Here are pictures of my beautiful aunts and my adorable cousin, Jenna! It was so good to see you guys!









Here are some pictures of the gorgeous gifts...I love the t-shirt!









Here's a picture of my sister-in-law and soon-to-be-aunt, Jillian, and I.


Greg and I want to thank everyone for their generosity! We are so lucky to have such wonderful family and friends!
Love,
Kim and Greg
