Our Christmas Card

We took the annual "Quincey Christmas Card" photo on Christmas Eve between church and dinner.  I am still getting my act together for our little guy's arrival, and am not sending cards out this year (you'll be receiving an announcement in the near future anyway!), so here is the "Weismann digital Christmas Card 2010"!

We had a delicious dinner at Roy's (a high end "Hawaiian Fusion" restaurant) with my family... lots of fun conversation and laughs!

32 Weeks...

We had our 32 week appointment, and were lucky enough to have another sonogram to get a look at our little guy. Apparently, the sonographer 2 weeks ago didn't measure his kidneys (the whole reason I was having the sonogram in the first place... everything is fine, though!), so we got to do it again. We got lots of great pictures of Riley, and watched him rubbing his eyes and sleeping away. He's a healthy 4 1/2 lbs now, and it's just a short matter of time before he's here!



In Memory Of Lily...

We will miss sweet Lily Girl.  She has been the Quincey "Family Dog" for the last 11 years+. She became paralyzed from her waist down on Friday (she was actually staying with us for the night because my parents were in Oklahoma for Lib's graduation - another post to come about that! Congrats Lib!), and it got worse and worse and she died today.  She lived a long and pampered life, and we'll all miss her very much!

Toby laying with Lily.  Even when he would squeeze his little body on her bed she would scoot over and let him in. 

Just a cute one of Lil... squeezed into Toby's little bed



Birthday Weekend

My birthday was last weekend, and it was nice and relaxing.

On my actual birthday, we went to Matt's work Christmas party.  We decided to take a "tummy" picture before we left:

 30.5 weeks

When we got home Matt gave me a delicious cupcake from the "Cupcakery" (gourmet cupcake bakery in our area), and sang happy birthday all by himself. Maybe Riley will join him next year. :)

We went to dinner on Saturday night in Frisco Square, and watched the town square light show timed to Christmas music... it was amazing. They even had real snow falling in the square (snow machines, of course, for us Texans!). 

We topped off the weekend with an amazing dinner & MORE cupcakes at my parents house on Sunday.  It was a very special birthday weekend!

30 Week Update

We had our 30 week appointment yesterday, and were lucky enough to get a sonogram as well!  I actually started fainting and getting extremely nauseous during the sono (they said it was from laying flat on my back for so long, and the baby weight was cutting off my circulation - new sono tech!!), so I didn't get to see much once them rolled me on my side... but we did walk away with one CUTE picture of Riley! He is measuring 2 weeks ahead of schedule, and is almost 4 whopping pounds.  Dr. Campbell gave him an A+ on all of his stats, so we were thrilled for the good report. 

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

... at our house! We got all of our Christmas decorating done the day after Thanksgiving. It was a lot of work, but it totally put us in the holiday spirit and we get to enjoy them for several weeks.  Here's a tour...

Outside of the house - Matt spent lots of time getting all of the lights hung. 

We switched to LED's this year to save on energy!

Oh Christmas Tree... 



Thanksgiving

We were lucky enough to have two visitors from the Daly family for Thankgiving... my Grandma and cousin Santina.  I wasn't very good at taking pictures on Thanksgiving, but snapped a few after our delicious meal.

It was a nice relaxing day of good food and visiting with family!
