A couple of older pictures

These were taken on Christmas Eve, just before Karl and I went to a get together with some people from the neighborhood. I am 22 weeks and 4 days here. Currently I am 26 weeks and 4 days so I need to get some updated pictures taken and posted!

Goodbye bath rugs...hello living room rug!

We finally got a rug for our living room! YAY!! It looks so much better than the bath rugs we were using to keep the floors from being scratched. Pape Karl saw this pattern and knew it would be perfect for our living room. He was right!

Happy Birthday, Karl!

Karl's 29th birthday was January 19. We both had to work that day and we had a long doctor's visit that afternoon. Papa Karl has been in town visiting (and helping to get Baby Bayer's room ready, crib and wardrobe are up, pics coming when more is done) and he made dinner for Karl's birthday.

You can't really tell I am pregnant in this picture!

Our First Winter Weather Day

We were forecasted to have a bit of freezing rain with some possibility of sleet...the meteorologists were slightly off! School was canceled today, of course, though, not until after I was already fully dressed and just about ready to go! Enjoy the pictures of our first snow day!

BIG milestone! Start the countdown! :)

This is day number 180 and you're 26 weeks pregnant!You have 100 days or 14 weeks left, and are 65.0% of the way there.Baby's age since conception is 166 days or 24 weeks. You are due on 4/25/2007.

Only 100 days left until Baby Bayer is expected to be here!!! So much to do still....

Merry Christmas, Karl!

Poor Karl had to spend the day working at the airport on the busiest days before Christmas...December 22 and 23. He'll also be working Christmas Eve and Christmas night. Here he is relaxing by the tree.....checking out if Santa has brought him anything yet.

22 weeks and 3 days...belly keeps on growing!

These shots were taken on December 23, 2006. Our son has become quite active during the past several weeks. Karl and I first felt him move on the outside December 5. Just last night I saw my stomach bulge out as he moved a hand, leg, head, something against my stomach! What an amazing feeling it is!

Christmas Decorations 2006

Here are pictures of our decorated house! I am just imagining all of the wrapping paper that will be all over these lovely decorations next Christmas!

Birthday Cake!

The cake I made for my birthday...kinda weird to make your own cake but this is one I can only make during the holidays so I told Karl that I wanted to make it. He made a wonderful dinner of flank steak, real mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, and salad that we enjoyed with a couple from our neighborhood. It was a wonderful birthday!

First Outfits

Here are the first outfits Karl and I bought after our doctor's appointment.
