An Overdue Post

So I have been all but absent in the blogosphere. Sorry about that. It's been a busy month and a half. After Matt's winter semester, we were able to go to Oregon to visit my family, have a baby shower, then drive my car (and a bunch of my stuff that was still at home) back to Richmond. It was a quick trip but it was wonderful! I loved seeing my family and not being sick like I was during Christmas with morning sickness. My mom and sister Carrie threw me the shower and many of my wonderful friends came to celebrate little William Timothy.

This is me and just a few of the guests. Carrie did the best she could considering her broken foot and I'm so grateful to have any pictures of the party at all.
Everyone was so generous, and my mom and Carrie worked so hard to make the shower a success, and it was. They even made me a beautiful quilt in the colors of the nursery (yellow and grey).

I am now officially in my third trimester! I'm 29 1/2 weeks today. I had a doctor's appointment and everything is going great. Apparently I've lost a pound since the last appointment but it's nothing to be concerned about. Overall I've gained 11 pounds and the doctor told me that was great. This is a picture of me last week at 28 weeks.

In other news, pretty soon we will be getting to work updating the kitchen and bathrooms in the townhouse my in-laws invested in. I've been doing a lot of work on that lately and it's been nice to exercise my design brain muscles again. Welp, that's all I have for now. I'll try to be better about updating, but if not, I blame pregnancy brain.
