....In w/ the New!

November has been our most exciting and eventful month this year! We started the month off finishing our Baby Registry and then having a nice dinner out together at Legals. Then we had the rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony, and reception for Jill & Dan. I was in charge of Sophia during the ceremony and she did so well walking down the isle w/ me and then sitting quietly playing w/ her "goodie bag" I put together to keep her entertained.

The morning of the wedding ceremony Ryan and I were able to get our first picture shots of the boys to take home. Here are a few...

Both boys-head shots!


We also had Warrens birthday where we went over to the house to visit, brought an ice cream cake and played the Wii.

We also moved to a new apartment on the south shore closer to Ryans work.
Thanks everyone who helped us out through the whole process! It was so hard for me to no be able to help in the move, but it all got done and we are now enjoying our new place-even made a real dinner the next night when Matt, Brooke, and the kids came to visit! Here are a few pictures of the new place...








The day before Thanksgiving and the again a week later we had to go in to the doctors to follow up on some issues, during which time I was put on modified bed rest...Not a thrill, but we still need the babies to wait out another 8 weeks! We were able to get some more good shots of the boys though...

Out w/ the Old...

In October we were really busy!! We started out the on the 1st w/ a trip into Faneuil hall where we ate lunch at Cheers and then headed of to an appt w/ a high risk maternal fetal specialist in Boston. We were not able to get pictures of the babies at that point but we did find out what we were having-TWO BOYS!!

We spent much of the middle of the month looking at different apartments, though the search became easier when Ryan was no longer working 6 days a week on both the north and south shores. For those of you who never got to make it over to our old place, here are a few pictures. It was small but sufficient for just the two of us...

On Oct 20th we went to Cathy and Ron's house for a Mary Kay pre wedding makeup party. Ryan also had his Tux fitting and I had to exchange my dress for a smaller size! Yes, I did say smaller...I had in fact lost so much weight from the morning sickness, I went down TWO sizes.

The month ended w/ another drs appt, an apartment decision, and a trip to NH. We spend a Sat-Sun w/ Auntie Penny and Uncle Norm. It was so much fun and very relaxing. We made "grammie" cookies in the shape of pumpkins and Ryan and I decorated them-getting everything covered in glazed frosting. We also went to the Anheuser-Busch factory where we saw the beautiful Clydesdale horses and had a tour of the Budweiser plant. Though the smell of the Hops they put in beer put me on the edge, I did successfully make it through to the end. Everyone had beer samples, I had soda!

Super September!

This month was filled w/ many days of morning, noon, and night sickness and Ryan was so wonderful through the whole thing! I am so lucky to have him! Speaking of which, this month was both his and Elliott's birthdays. Here are a few pictures from Mom...


The birthday boy...

...opening gifts w/ his mama!

There was also a wedding shower for Jill! Here are a few pics from mom!

Mmmm...cake!!


Three "brides" and a completed bow plate!

About the middle of the month we braved it an had a day out together during which we played mini golf and went to see a movie! It was great for me to get out of the apartment now that I was feeling a little better! The month ended w/ me getting test results back from the doctors-all of which were good reports!
