Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

(almost) 34 weeks!

I will be 34 weeks on Christmas- crazy! I can't believe how fast it has gone. He will be here so soon :)

I'm trying to be ok with the fact that I look bigger than the tree in this picture ;)

December!

We have had literally a record month for snowfall in Rochester this year. As of earlier this week we had gotten over 37 inches of snow this month and then it snowed again last night and today (probably another 5 inches or so).


Note the amount of snow on top of the grill and table:






Sidewalk in front of our house:




Here are a few shots of our Christmas decorations:

The cutest cat in the world :)

Residency Shower

My sweet friends Molly and Angie threw a shower for me earlier this month. It was girl's only which Del was thankful for :) He has somehow made it through my pregnancy without having to attend a shower. I'm pretty sure he never had to go to a wedding shower either...hmmm.


A few shots from the shower:





There are lots of babies that have been born or are due in the near future in our program:





My colleagues are so generous and got us our carseat and stroller combo (and then carried it to my car for me)!
