New Year, New Life

Literally...

I've waited to post this anywhere, and have still yet to post anything on Facebook myself, but wanted to finally say that Jason and I will be adding a new addition to our family this Spring.  Our little girl is due at the end of April and we couldn't be more excited to meet her!

With the recent kicks I've felt, my growing belly, some initial purchases, and some of the super sweet gifts we've received - its starting to feel more and more real!  We built and put together her crib last week and I keep walking by the room and just staring at it.  Its not a fancy crib, but I like just the sight of it.  

We have two names in mind and have pretty much decided on one, but have decided to keep it a secret until we can meet her ourselves.

There won't be any belly photos on here (sorry!) but I thought I'd share some photos (they're mostly iphone shots because they've all been on the fly!) of some of the gifts we've received and things we've bought so far.  While I'm back in the US I'm having two baby showers, one hosted by my best friends and cousins and the other hosted by Jason's mom & sister.  I can't wait to see everyone and celebrate.  

Please keep us in your thoughts in the next couple months that everything keeps going smoothly.  We have no reason to think otherwise, so far everything with the baby has been healthy, but you just never know.  

I'm really looking forward to our new life in 2014!

We went with the Graco SnugRide 30. Its kind of like when you're car shopping - now that we have one, I can't tell you how many times I've seen others with this same car seat!

O-H! An awesome onesie from Jason's mom. I love it.

The BOB! This stroller is heavy duty! I'm really missing running and can't wait to take this thing out!
Also, to my sweet friends - this by no means is all that we've received so far.  We're so lucky to have such good friends that have thought to send us stuff.  I just didn't think to take photos of everything!

eek!! I remember that feeling so well-- it will only grow to you staring at new things-- I still stop and stare at Jasmine sleeping, concentrating on writing/drawing, singing, etc. What an amazing time in your life- I cannot wait to see you and that baby belly!!

ps-- look at that adorable NOSE!!!! =)

I didn't know that you were a pre-pregnancy runner, too. Our BOB is in the basement, waiting for spring (and our little girl's arrival) so that I can start running again, too. Congratulations again to you guys!
