24 Weeks and Counting

We just hit the 24 week mark so I thought I would update the baby picture collage. This week, Chris was able to feel the baby kick for the first time which was so exciting. We can see her move every once and a while - crazy!

We're getting more and more excited for Baby to come. We've got the furniture ordered for the nursery, a daycare all lined up, and our registry completed. Before long we'll be cuddling with our little one!

Thanksgiving, Krusmark Style!

We celebrated another Krusmark Thanksgiving - this time at our house! For the first time, we hosted everyone at our place for the meal and of course, the big cribbage tournament! Luckily we had Chris' cousin Erin to cook the turkey and gravy, as well as many other things. We would have been lost without her! Everyone else contributed as well - no one went home hungry.

Our table turned out so pretty. I was glad we got to use our china!

Here is Leo with his new friend, Gracie. Chris' aunt Karen brought her dog Gracie and she got along great with Leo and Rudy. When Gracie had to go to sleep in her kennel at night, Leo and Rudy cried for her at the bottom of the stairs :).

Uncle Kevin and Uncle Randy carved the turkey. As you can see, we had plenty of appetizers also.

I skunked Jacqui in my first cribbage game this year!

Chris played with Erin's fiance, Eric. He was initiated this year into the tournament and did pretty well for himself!

This was the winning game - Matt and Randy. Matt won!

Passing the trophy from the 2012 winner (Chris) to the 2011 winner (Matt).

Here is the entire family.

On Saturday we had a shower for Erin and Eric. They're getting married next October in Chicago and we'll get to celebrate our anniversary there with them!

Halftime!

It's about that time - halfway time! We recently celebrated a big baby milestone, the 20 week mark. Here is what the mommy looks like:

Compared to 16 weeks......

And 10 weeks...

And here is what the baby looks like!!

Our sweet baby didn't cooperate at our first ultrasound, so we had a follow up ultrasound to find out that we are having a girl!! We couldn't be more excited and anxious to meet her! Now we can really get into the planning process with the room and the registry. Here is our inspiration for the room (this is decorated for a boy so we'll customize it for our little girl).
