Baby Showers, Belly's and Christmas

Leslie's Baby Shower was held the first weekend in December. April flew down for the event and it was held at Amy's house. It was a fun weekend full of lots of little tiny clothing.

The Bailey's came to visit for Christmas. While they were here, Rich and John put together the crib and started setting up the nursery. John took more belly shots--Leslie is finally starting to get big. One more month to go!

Thanksgiving with the Quells

For Thanksgiving, John's mother and stepdad came to visit us in San Francisco. We also took our first childbirth prepartion class this month and started decorating for Christmas and took more belly shots.

Shark Dive!

John went on a shark dive at the Farallon Islands in November. Read "The Devil's Teeth" to learn more.

Halloween & Half Moon Bay

We sat in the pumpkin patch at Half Moon Bay and thought about OUR little pumpkin who will arrive in 3 months. We bought about $70 worth of pumpkins (not sure what happened--must be the Halloween spirit!).

More belly photos, also!

Second Anniversary

We spent our second anniversary in Aspen--got to spend some time with the Olivers while there. John went on to Boulder to go to the CU/CSU game. We also took our first set of pregnancy photos this month.

Baptise Me!

In August, we went to Portland, OR for Ethan's baptism! Leslie is his Godmother. We also celebrated John's birthday this month.
