Here we are leaving for the hospital - Gehrig surprised us by showing up 2.5 weeks early! My water broke at 4am on August 5 - we were two days into having our house painted! Here are some of the pictures of right before we left for the hospital and what our house looked like!

Fourth of July 2009 - 33 Weeks Pregnant

Our last weekend to leave the Arlington area - and our last getaway as a 'twosome' :) Rich surprised me with a trip to the Eastern Shore! We stayed at a wonderful B&B called "The Inn at 202 Dover" in Easton. It was amazing! We spent most of our time enjoying the local area and food - it was SO relaxing! We picked out a name for our baby boy - we can't wait to share his name once he arrives! Here are a few of our pictures (including new belly shots)

The Nursery!

Our furniture arrived on June 13, 2009 - here is the nursery almost all set up!

28 weeks sonogram - 4D!

Here are the pictures of our little boy at 28 weeks! We got lucky -- the doctor was testing new sonogram equipment, so we have 4-D pictures! They can be a little weird looking, (he kind of looks like he's melting) - BUT its still very neat to see what he looks like :) enjoy!

Engaged! Magazine

Rich and I have our photo in Engaged! Magazine - the spring 2009 edition. We purchased one, and the picture looks really great in it! Here is the link http://www.engagedmagazine.com/spring09/ -- we are on page 167 :)

It's a Boy!

Here are pictures taken on April 10, 2009 - when we found out we are having a baby boy! The anatomy pictures are taken looking from the bottom up - his feet make a backwards "C" and in the middle, you can tell its a boy :)

Here are a few belly pictures taken on April 12, 2009 (Easter Sunday!). We are 21 weeks and 2 days...

Finding out the baby's gender - April 10, 2009

April 10, 2009 - Rich and I found out the sex of our first baby! Rich took me out to a surprise dinner at DC Coast - DC Coast is one of our favorite date spots from the "dating years." He had flowers delivered and waiting for me on the table with a nice card. We had the sonographer put the appropriate sex baby in the paper baby stoller (see picture - the girl would have been carrying ballet slippers instead of a football) and seal the envelope along with the sonogram pictures. After we ordered dinner and appetizers we opened the envelope! These pictures are from right before we opened the envelope to right after, and one includes a picture of what we opened.

Sonogram Pictures - 17 weeks

Here are the two pictures we got from our unscheduled sonogram - you can see baby whitney's little hand - all five fingers! He/She is saying HI!!
