Boston Weekend
April 17th-19th 2009
Even though we're only 49 miles from Boston, we decided to spend the weekend in the city to hang out with some friends that were flying in from Ohio for a couple of Sox games. We had a great time catching up with Brian and Mike and walking around in the great spring weather. We hit up a few bars (me with my water/sprite) and our favorite, Houston's, for a great dinner on Saturday night. We're always up for time in the city!!

Easter Weekend in Vermont
April 10th-12th 2009
We headed up to Vermont for Easter and had a pretty relaxing weekend. We did have to recreate last year's Easter photo for fun!
We enjoyed an Easter dinner with the WHOLE clan, and Grandpa Bowler stopped by for a visit. We were able to get all the great-grandchildren to pose (and look at the camera ... which takes some silliness behind the scenes!) for a photo with him - very cute.

23 weeks!
April 10, 2009
Spring is springing and Sheila is growing!
It's funny, I didn't feel as though I had grown much bigger since the last photo until just two days ago. My belly got itchy and it felt like it was stretching a bit and yesterday I woke up and felt much bigger - it always seems like it happens overnight. Our little girl is growing fast now!

20 Weeks, 3 Days
March 23, 2009
We had a follow-up ultrasound after the doctor found some Choroid Plexus Cysts in the babies brain - something that is not harmful to the baby, but can sometimes be markers for other abnormalities. We were pretty worried going into this, but pretty reassured since they are fairly common and normally go away on their own. Our first trimester screening had also come back negative for down syndrome and trisomy 18, which was a good sign that there shouldn't be any problems.
After meeting with the Genetic Counselor, we had our ultrasound where everything was looked at and measured once again. The doctor reviewed all of the images and when he came in, told us that the cysts were gone and everything else looks normal!!!! This was a huge relief to hear and gave us a great feeling to know that our baby is okay!
Here are a couple new images of our growing girl!
