Showered with Love

Thanks to everyone in the Wisconsin (and surrounding area -- yeah, Tampa is considered "surrounding") for the fantastic baby shower for little Betz on Sunday! Jody and I are so blessed to have such wonderful, generous family and friends who are so eager to welcome this little girl into our lives... and she'll be one heck of a well-dressed little one, to boot! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all!

More photos will be coming soon -- including the little one's freshly-painted room! (Thanks, Jody, for helping me avoid paint fumes while I was enjoying the Midwest.)

Oh, and a quick rundown of where we are in the gestational timeline:

• She's 25w2d (that's 6 months, 1 week, 2 days to those who struggle with math)
• She's weighing in at approximately 1.5 lbs.
• She's the size of a rutabaga (about 13.5")
• She can actively hear me/us -- need to start watching our language! (Aw skrit!!)
• She's bebopping around at regular intervals now. She's very kicky in/down, but not so much outward quite yet -- Jody still hasn't felt her move, but any day now...
