Bad Bloggers!

We know, it has been FAR too long since we had an entry and we don't want to have anymore comments from certain friends (who mind you, are wonderful weekly bloggers that we just cannot compete with-you know who you are!) on visiting our blog site and seeing the "Wings Crap" again. Gosh...and to think, our little one isn't even here yet and we have fallen this far behind. We will make up for it, we promise!

So to get everyone caught up, we thought we would summarize the last few months with some highlights and pics of things/events we have been up too! Here it goes...

At my first appointment of the new year the ultrasound above was taken. It was truly an amazing shot and so weird, but totally awesome to think, that this little one is inside of me. Since then, we have had several more (as you can imagine since this is my 39th week). We have been going to the doctor on a weekly basis since week 34 and each time, she (and I) are growing a little more. As of last Wednesday and this past Wednesday, I am a whopping 1-1/2 cm dialated-WHOO HOOO. For all who live out here, this weekend you will see me hiking up the hills behind Summit Park so hopefully when I go in next Monday my doctor will say I am ready to go! :)

Now we go into February...a busy month for one and all! The REP held its annual fundraiser, Evening with the REP, in its own house this year where we raised just over $5,000. The night was a memorable one with great food, awesome silent auction, romantic and quirky romantic scenes from plays and movies (including one of my favorites from Kevin Kline and Meg Ryan's movie, "French Kiss") performed by our "Company" and dancing until 2am, followed by a trip to the Saugus Cafe...Mama was hungry!

Also in February, my Mom (Grandmama Ilich) and some of my girlfriends (Steph, Amy and Sarah) hosted my Baby Shower! It was held at my parents clubhouse with adorable onesies and sock clotheslines decorating the room along with a "Welcome Isabelle Anessa" welcome mat cake! It was a great time and I/we thank everyone who came.

The nursery is on its last leg of being finished, yes we know that Isabelle is due next week and could have been here already, It has been a challenge with a few things like the changing table we finally received that had to be sent back and re-ordered because it had two broken pieces. Well, we got the new one today and all the pieces are in tact :) That is actually what Papa O is doing tonight.

For those who have been to our place, we actually had the loft upstairs turned into the nursery about two months ago. The half wall was built up into a wall with a window (on the stairwell wall) and a door. We chose lavender and green as the colors to paint the walls with white furniture to go with all of the new trim. We will post some pics once its completed.

Well, that is all for now until we get some more pics...maybe of Isabelle this weekend, if we are lucky! Everyone keep your fingers crossed because we are sooo ready for her to be here and meet all of you!

Hugs to all!!
