Christmas

We celebrated Christmas 3 different weekends this year!  Yup...we traveled back to Iowa 3 weekends in a row.  I guess you can call us the I29 road warriors.  Despite the 1,819 miles we put on our car we had a great time with our families! We are truly blessed!

Jay-Z Kanye West Watch the Throne Tour

I'm not sure which is more shocking... the fact that I actually had a bank customer that wanted to go to the Jay-Z Kanye concert?! Or the fact that I went when I was 5 months pregnant?!

I have always liked Jay-Z.  Not much of a fan of Kanye's.  But to be honest, the concert was amazing!  Or at least the 45 minutes that I got to see of it.  As soon as the lights went down the pot smoke went up!  What was I thinking?!?

21 Weeks - Over Half Way There

We forgot to take pictures at 20 weeks, which I can't believe we did.  That is supposed to be one of the most exciting milestones!!

Baby C is kicking like crazy.  He likes to play when Mom wants to lay down for some rest.  Do you think that will change once he's here?! :)   He also gets very active right after eating.  He either doesn't like what I eat or likes it so much that he's kicking for more! 

Week 21 Trick - If Mom lays really still I kick really hard and she can feel it on the outside!  And then, when she yells for Dad to come feel I stop!

Baby Currie's First Book

We got a present in the mail from Uncle Robby last week and I had to share it with everyone. Thanks so much Uncle Robby!  Dad can't wait now! 


Go the F to Sleep is a book written by American author Adam Mansbach and illustrated by Ricardo Cortés. Described as a "children's book for adults", it reached No. 1 on Amazon.com's bestseller list a month before its release, thanks to an unintended viral marketing campaign during which booksellers forwarded PDF copies of the book by email.

When Adam Mansbach's daughter Vivien was two, she would take up to two hours to fall asleep. Exhausted and exasperated, one night Mansbach posted a note on Facebook, "Look out for my forthcoming children’s book, Go the — to Sleep". Following his post, friends of Mansbach responded enthusiastically, so that Mansbach began writing what was then only a hypothetical book. Mansbach had the illustrations for the picture book done by a friend, illustrator Ricardo Cortés (a contributor to The New York Times), and approached Akashic Books, a book publisher from New York.

First Ultrasound

We had our first ultrasound on December 2nd...exactly 20 weeks.  Or at least mom thinks so.  My doc says Baby C is measuring 7 days ahead of my original due date, but we are going to stick with April 20th for now!  P.S. I apologize for the crooked photos.  I'm new to this whole blog thing and I'm not sure how to rotate the picture. 
For the untrained eyes (or non-moms out there)...that's a boy! 

Sucking his thumb!

I think he has his daddy's feet...look how flat that foot is!
