Our first post

Hello Everyone!

So it's taking us a bit longer than expected to get this blog up but with no further ado here it is. Things are going great here on the East Coast with the exception of the freezing cold. Melanie is now 24 weeks(beginning her 6th month) pregnant and looking great. She's been active and hasn't had any of those weird cravings or sicknesses that come along with being prego since the first trimester so here's to praying it stays that way.

She's been feeling a lot of movement, kicks in particular, so I guess we have the next coming of Hugo Sanchez in her belly :) Although we don't know the sex so maybe its Mia Hamm, guess we'll find out when the baby is delivered. We feel that Emma and the baby have a special connection or our plotting something mischievous. Emma lays on Melanie's belly and feels the baby's kicks frequently.

We'll do our best to keep this updated. Feel free to comment or ask questions.

For your viewing pleasure here are some photos of me and, oh yea, Mel too.
