Just as I was telling Lilly (ya, I was talking to my belly at the dr. office)to get out of my belly the ultrasound tech came around the corner to tell me the room was ready. This was the same tech who told me in January that I was in fact pregnant rather than having PCOS like the doctor suspected. Lilly was cooperating to a point and we were blessed to see her little face with her big cheeks. She was head down which is great news, and she was holding her foot right up by her face so she is pretty much folded in half. The tech said I have a ton of fluid, which makes me nervous, I mean what if my water breaks at work....gonna be a gusher.

(greg's nose, look at those cheeks!)(holding her foot by her face)I have been working hard this past week with preseason going on, getting up early, a lot of walking and up and down, which is taking its toll on my poor feet and ankles. When I stepped on the scale today I was thinking there is no way I gained any weight I have been so busy and I have been eating really well (no ice cream all week!). Well the scale thought otherwise as I added another 4# to my total (WHAT!?!?!?) I am doing my best to blame it on all the swelling and water retention.
But, all in all today was a good checkup, although I am not dilated at all things seem to be progressing and if nothing else I am one day closer to my due date. She can't stay in there forever, I will see to that!
Since it has been about 4 weeks since you have seen a side shot I figured this would do. It is all in my face and belly apparently let the swelling begin!
Here is Lilly's Quilt...the first time I have added a tag to a quilt, I got inspired and just folded a square over and sewed it in when I sewed on the binding, it turned out quite well
Here is the back, love this fabric, Hunky Dory by Moda. You can see the little tag in the lower right, and "creepy Minnie" in the left. She was a gift and I like her, but she creeps Greg out hence the name....
Here is the front, all charm squares with cream sashing and yellow border. This would be "good Minnie" she rattles we got her in Disney a few months back. 
We decided not to paint since we are renting and painting is a chore, and since Lilly wont be able to use her quilt for a while anyways we just decided to put it on display.
Here is the other corner of the room, don't mind the mess on the floor, I am working on it. The little lamp on the table I embellished with rick rack, and I made the pink and white crib skirt which matched the binding on the quilt. What you can't see from the photos is directly across from the crib is a large dresser/hutch/changing table with ton of storage. Pretty simple but it should do the job. (the swing is in the living room, and the pack and play is in our bedroom for the first few weeks/months).
Here is the bus I wish we were on, but no we walked. I in my no so supportive flip flops with my long day of travel puffy feet. (photo wouldn't go the right way sorry).
The welcome ceremony was at the museum, there was not as big of a turn out as usual as the bars this year were not open. Let's be honest get a bunch of 
Here we are on our way to get some real cheese steaks trying to figure out the metro system. 
Where else would we go but to Pat and Geno's two of "the best" literally right across the street from one another. Naturally we had to get a sub at each to 
Geno's action shot
Pat's King of Steaks.
