Spring has FiNaLLy Sprung

Friday was amazing! It was in the high 70's & so warm! Doug played soccer with a bunch of his dental buddies. So Steph & I decided that we should enjoy the outdoors & we went & had a picnic lunch at the park. It was splendid!



Steph & Collin chillin in the sun!



Me & my sandwich.

I can't wait til my kid is here so I can have someone else in a photo w/me!



3 pals on a picnic!

Doug & I also attended our first BBQ of the season Friday night. It was so nice to be able to be outdoors after dark & not freeze! I am so looking forward to summer. I hope this nice weather only gets better!

Friday was just full of events. I had my 20 week doctors appointment & everything is going great! My doc is somewhat of a tease & when he was going over my ultrasound results he casually said, "Congratulations on having a girl!" I was like, "What?!" He smirked & I told him that is not a very funny thing to do to a pregnant woman. :)
Here is a picture of my belly:

20 weeks
