3+ weeks left....

And the count down begins! Now that we have officially started October, we are in the month were I turn 30 and get to meet this new baby girl. The big question is, which will happen first? Any guesses??

September turned out to be a bit of a rough month for us. Both Chris's Nonna and my Grammie Jean passed away. Nonna was 96 and Grammie Jean was 99. Chris's family came in for the services for his Nonna. While it was nice to see everyone, we definitely wish it was under better circumstances. Grammie Jean passed away about a week later and unfortunately I was not able to make the service. Travelling from Jupiter, FL to Brownville, ME proved to be a bit more difficult than one might imagine. They will both be missed tremendously.

In happy news, some of my girlfriends here were generous enough to throw me a little baby shower about a week ago. We had a blast laughing at baby pictures of everyone and the girls trying to guess just how big around is the pregnant lady??? Turns out someone though I was bigger around than she was tall....interesting!! Thanks to all those girls who were there and thought of us. We were both touched by the thoughtfulness of the people we have met here. Here are some pictures of the fun party!

We will keep everyone posted on the latest baby events. It is hard to imagine that this is all going to be happening so soon....
