"I'm a Bug"

Liv got a lady bug costume at the consignment shop.

(Mom is "singing" the Bug song from our signing videos)

Saturday Afternoon at the Beach

We all went out to Alameda beach for a few hours this afternoon.

We did some exploring...

And some running and playing.

And Jeff got to do some sailing.

Liv and I watched happily from the beach.

Dad took a break to bask in the sun with us.

a lovely day for everyone!

Wild Goose Chase

today at the park.

and yesterday at the mall.

Baby On Board!! *NEWS*

Guess What!?!?


Liv's gonna be a big sister!!


warning: creepy ultra-sound pictures below... :)

so, obviously, judging by the size of my belly... we've known for a while;
just haven't made the big global announcement.

Here it is:

Jeff, Emily & Olivia are expecting a new baby January 24th (-ish)
which means we're about 1/2 way through the pregnancy.

I went for the standard 20-week ultrasound this morning.
Everything looks pretty normal according to the tech & the dr.

The technology is amazing. The detail and the clarity are impressive.
However, amazing as it is; it's also a little creepy and bizarre.

We got to watch & listen to the heart. We got to see close-ups of each ventricle.
It's a beautiful, symmetrical, rhythmic little heart.

We saw the pretty string-of-pearls spine; long and even, with graceful little curves.

Big round abdomen, big round head.
All the limbs and fingers and toes in the right numbers and in the right places.

And what appear to be sweet little girl-parts between two strong leg bones!

Here are a couple of profile pictures of our "reclining" baby
Head (right/center) chest & belly (left)

If you're grossed out - I don't want to hear it!!

I warned you!!!



BTW: I tried to send out a mass email with our new email addresses & current mailing address/phone number. I think it got marked as spam in some inboxes... if you didn't get the email and would like our current contact info... let me know!! XOXO

Happy Livvy

happy kid, full attention from BOTH parents - WOO HOO!
jumping, hugging, general cuteness.
