Good morning Lucy!!!
Last night you went to your second show, Against Me and boy were you ever the center of attention. You have been to another show before, Lucero, however nobody even could tell you were there. Being that you were soooo tiny in my belly :) But last night, whoa. We had a good time. I could feel you jammin' in my belly and enjoying yourself. We were on the first floor for Cheap Girls last night and when things got a little rowdy, oh man did you have an entourage to protect you. I couldn't believe how many people actually paid attention to you verses the show. We met a couple who was extremely excited to know you were at the show, they had every one of their kids at shows too when they were your size. So they really wanted to make sure that we enjoyed ourselves without any crazy moshing interfering our little bubble around us.
Once Against Me took the stage, Dad and I knew it was going to be much better for me to go a little further back and higher up. While dad was back talking to that couple on the floor, I made some more new friends who were super excited to see you being there too. A few guys introduced themselves to me and thought we were pretty cool for still coming out even though we have almost only 9 more weeks left (according to the doctor). After two songs or so, Dad came up to hang with us for the rest of the evening. It was such a good time and I am soo glad you were able to let me get out last night.
After the show ended, we had an insane amount of people, mainly couples, come up and touch my belly and just talk to us about how happy they were to see us out. People we didn't even know. It was beyond crazy. I really enjoyed the fact that even though it was a rowdy show and drinking was involved (of course not by me, we enjoyed ice cubes) that people really respected the personal bubble of safety we had for you. It was almost as though you were the show and we got to hear the reviews afterwards :)
My only issue I had last night was the fact that my feet were and still are swelled up to the size of Nerf footballs. It's ok though, that is something that I can handle.
As for today, since I spent all day on my feet yesterday, I am going to do some much needed relaxation and then get your room set up. Maybe paint you a little something if I can think up something creative. I am going to start setting up your closet and dad and some friends are going to be setting up your crib. All in all, it should be a good day.
Love you tons and tons!!

11 more weeks.. can't be soon enough
Good morning Lucy.
It's been a while since I last posted any sort of update on your page. Dad and I have been really busy trying to take care of the not so fun stuff awaitng your arrival, like insurance, life insurance and finances.. By the age of 10, you will never have to worry about life insurance :)
We just got tons of baby clothes for you though on Sunday. It was fun to pick everything out. Your Aunt Karla gave us 5 totes to rummage through since your cousins had outgrown the clothes. It was so hard to choose, but so fun to "dress you up" or at least imagine what you are going to look like in them. Tomorrow I would really like to go through the bags again to see what we all have and get some things organized. However, I have a lot on my to-do list so we'll see if I get that chance. We have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning, the last one before we go and see the doctor every other week. I have tons of questions to ask, but whenever I am there I seem to forget what I want to ask, even if I write it down. I'm excited to hear your heartbeat and I am really hoping you do a lot of wiggling around like you have been lately. Did you realize that you were nonstop for over 48 hours last week??? I can't imagine what you were doing in there, but it sure did keep you occupied.
Another thing on tomorrow's to-do list, pick up your bed :) I am super excited to do that. I just feel like once we get that ready in your room, things will be much easier to imagine with your arrival. I really want to see you soon. I am hoping we only have 9 weeks left, but that's me being selfish. I just can't wait to get my arms around you and start a new chapter in my life... motherhood.
I have been having so many dreams about you too. The day you arrive, how big you are going to be and what you are going to look like. Dad and I want you to have lots of hair, and with the old wives tale of heartburn creating lots of hair for you, I think you will be as hairy as a monkey!! We will see though...
So far things you may want to know about 2011 that may seem interesting to you when you get older are:
*Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl 45 with Aaron Rodgers as the MVP
*Bret Favre finally agreed to retire (something America has been waiting for since he became too big for his britches)
*Wisconsin had a huge blizzard leaving us with snow drifts up to 6 ft high
*This year is the year of the Rabbit in the Chinese Calendar
-Some famous people born in the year of the Rabbit are Frank Sinatra and Andy Warhol (two people that mama loves)
*This time last year mom and dad never even knew eachother exsisted
*Your cousin Julia gambled for the first time and won (she was only a week and a half old)
*As of this week, the number one song to hit the charts is "Grenade" by Bruno Mars (I haven't hear it yet)
There will be so much more to add to this list since it's only the second week of February... and I am hoping that I can keep up with it.
That will be it for now, but I promise to keep an update on you after my doctor's appointment tomorrow.
Love you Lucy!

Big news for you
Hi Lucy!!
So I should have posted this sooner, however this past week has been nothing but chaotic! You are going to be happy to know that you have a baby girl cousin that was born on January 12th. We are all so excited for you to have somebody close in age to grow up with and share some experiences. Her name is Julia Celeste and she is looking forward to meeting you. Over the weekend, Dad and I got some practice with babies. I changed a diaper for the first time.. let me tell you, it was extremely difficult... I hope that I can get the hang of it. I am sure I will, but don't be too upset with me if you have some saggy britches for the first week or so.
I am not going to lie, seeing Julia for the first time caused a bit of a panic attack. I had the realization rush over me the following day that in 3 months or less you are going to grace us with your presence. It still is very scary for me, especially because if you come early, we won't have anything ready for you. I have been working my fingers to the bone trying pay off some bills and save up for you at the same time... I hope I can keep this momentum.
You had a doctors appointment the day your cousin was born. Everything seems to be looking outstanding. Your heart rate was 145 beats per minute, you must have been resting because the day prior you were doing nothing but stumping around in my belly. Over the past few days I have actually been able to watch you move around. It looks pretty crazy and surreal to see you moving around in there.. my stomach ripples from the outside. I just have such a hard time understanding the concept that it's you.. again, it's so surreal. I can't wait for daddy to see you move around in my belly. Everytime I call him over you always stop... it drives me crazy!!! You are such a stinker already, but I love it :)
Alright, that's it for now baby girl.
Mom and Dad love you very much and are counting down the months... soon weeks then days before we get to see your beautiful face.

6 months in
Good morning Lucy,
It's been a while since I last posted a blog about you, your development and all the news that surrounds you. Well, lets catch up. You are in week 25, and you are the size of a half gallon of milk. Holy Cow!! It's true, and boy I feel it. Yesterday you were a woman on a mission. I am not sure what the mission was, however you were up and at it by 6:00 in the morning and seriously did not quit until 11:00 at night. It was crazy. You were kicking me all over the place, stretching, moving, elbowing me and so on. It was nuts. What was even crazier is that I could actually see the movement on my belly. I couldn't believe that I could actually see your movements in my belly.
In other news, you finally have bedding :) I am sooooo excited! However, you actually won't get it until March 13th. It's ok though. Just knowing you have a cute set for your crib makes me ecstatic. Also, on last Sunday, your Aunt Jenny and I went and finished up the registry at Babies R Us. I really hope we picked out the best and safest things for you. And I hope you appreciate everything you end up getting.
Dad surprised me the other day with a package in the mail. You got yourself your first super hero onsie. It is Wonder Woman, however I had no clue for a good half hour that the symbol was Wonder Woman. Considering the television shows we watching, I thought it was a pro wrestling shirt... whoops! I thought wrong. You are also getting a lot of movies in the mail that your dad insists you watch over any popular shows that today has to offer.
Ok babycakes... Mama has to get going with her day. I love you tons and tons!!!!
Muah!!

Today we shopped
Good evening Lucy!
Mom and Dad just got done cleaning out your room. We went through the couple of totes you have of toys and clothes to get ready and organized. You are going to look soooo adorable in the outfits you just got today.
We decided to use a gift card we had at Baby's R Us and while we were there today we thought about registering. It only took about an hour or so, but we picked out some cute things. At the end of our excursion we found an outfit we would like to see you in on your way home as well as a couple of cute summer outfits. There was also a super duper cute snowsuit that we got for you too. We didn't want to wait, plus it's on clearance. Its fluffy and white with giraffes and elephant I think. Soooo darn adorable!!!
Grandma and Aunt Jenny called me to let me know they found the baby shower invites. I can't wait to see who all comes. :)
Ok, mama is super exhausted right now, but I promise to put some more updates up soon.
Love you squirt!!! MUAH!!!

Newness...
Hey there Peapod,
So we are all finally moved into what will be your first home, well... more like your first apartment. Either way its where you will call home once you are all out of your momma's belly.
I'm extremely excited to find out next Monday if your junk is on the outside or inside so we know what to call you. You will always be Peapod to me but atleast I will know your proper name.
Your room is gonna be a bit crowded at first. Your momma and I are a bit of pack rats. You have a big kids bed in there and a rocking chair for the nights when you need some help falling asleep. I suppose that will depend on how much like you are similar to either your momma or me. I take a while to sleep and your mom can pass out on her feet given the chance. We still have to get your crib and such yet but soon enough that will be there too.
Well I just wanted to give you an update on what your living quarters are going to be like.
Oh and just so you know the first night we were here I felt you kick your mom, I'm sure its cramped in there but take it easy on her organs.
Love you and can't wait to meet you.
Dad
