Amanda turns one!

Thursday, April 23 - My First Trip to McDonalds

Daddy wanted to take his girl to McDonalds on her first birthday (so much for my "no fast food for this baby"!).

Saturday, April 25 - My First Birthday Party

Opening presents - thanks everyone!

I wasn't very interested in cake until my cousins all started to eat. Thanks for the help guys - yum!

Picnic

This is the beginning of our "picnic a week" time of the year. Todd and I like to meet at a park near his office on whatever day will have the nicest weather spring-fall. Last year, we spent a lot of those lunch hours in the car with the air conditioning running and my swollen feet propped up on the dashboard counting down the final weeks of pregnancy. This year, we're actually getting to play with someone on the playground! It's definitely more fun. Here are some pictures from week #2 of our picnic season...the order got kind of messed up here...the nap was AFTER the fun.

Everyone keeps asking me to post belly pictures, a.k.a. "How fat are you?" (Hi Aunt Alison), so I thought I would appease the masses before I really get huge. lol In case you don't already know my due date is June 18th and it is a boy. We plan on naming him Oliver Tristan. Tristan is Joel's middle name.

As you can see, I am a bit shocked at my stomach. :)

P.S. It takes a REALLY long time to make a sign if you don't have a Sharpie.

Have collected $975 for Pam's mission trip to see Jed and Brooke in Africa. WooHoo! 6 friends and 4 relatives. Don't worry, there's still time to get your donation in!

At the beach. I don't know why but I don't have any real pictures of Carl.
