Guess what's coming to Denver...


That's right...and we got tickets! My sweet husband was in the middle of buying tickets as an anniversary surprise when I called out from the kitchen "Hey, I heard Wicked is coming to Denver. We should get tickets!" So we did. And while it wasn't a surprise I am still so excited and impressed by Nate's thoughtfulness! So now all we need is a babysitter for November 5th...

Celebrating Rebecca and Tabor's wedding, Grandpa's birthday, and visiting a few friends and family. We are so EXCITED!!! If you would like to be added to the listed of people to see please contact us either via this blog or by some other means. We want to see as many people as we can and cram in as much fun as possible while we are there!

If you haven't already heard from my mom...

It's a girl!!! We are so excited to have a little girl coming to our family. It was so cool to see her moving and see her little facial features in the ultrasound. So far everything looks good. She measured at 20 weeks and 5 days (4 days ahead of schedule). We couldn't be happier!!!

Update

We had the inspection on our house yesterday. There were only a few minor things, so things will move forward as planned. We are scheduled to close on Monday, April 27! And my 20 week ultrasound is this coming Monday at 4:15...we can't wait!

Don't judge me...

I will be happy with a boy, I will...but how could I resist this? Besides there's a 90 day return policy.

We are (almost) the proud owners of...

This house! (Yes, it's pink, but Nate will tell you otherwise.) We LOVE it and are so excited to move in. Of course we have to wait to close first. Then it needs some cleaning, new carpet, and paint...but soon enough we will get to move in!

The pictures below are mostly for the benefit of the parental units. But if you'd like to take a peek inside, join us on our virtual home tour!


This is the master bathroom. There is a separate shower in front of the tub and a HUGE closet to the left.

Here's the laundry room. Notice the extra storage and the sink.

Here is the view of the living room from the kitchen.

This is the formal dining room just off the entry way.

Here's the view of the kitchen from the dining room, minus all the appliances.

The guest bathroom.

One of the extra bedrooms...they all look pretty much the same.

The view of the living room and eating area from the entry way.

The backyard. Hopefully there will be more color for the majority of the year...this was the day after a huge blizzard.

Not pictured is the full unfinished basement. Nate was sad I didn't take a picture of it, but I think you all know what a slab of cement looks like. It's not much to look at for now, but it has HUGE potential. And that's pretty much it. Please come visit us...we love guests!

Oh, and this is the sweet little thing we have been cuddling and playing with as much as possible!

Stuffing the ballot box

This is Nate. Let it be known that I asked Julie how many times she had voted on the baby poll. Her answer was "Oh, I don't know.....everytime it lets me do it, I vote again." Yes, that's correct. She's voted so many times that she can't even remember. She's stuffing the ballot box! Just thought I should make that known. Boys rule.


Gotta love the Moses Action Figure
