Baby Shower

Saturday Jan 27th Kari hosted a baby shower for me at her house, and it was wonderful. It was so fun to have so many friends and family there to celebrate our soon-to-be-appearing son! We had a nice time visiting, eating yummy food, and they even did a little project of painting either a onesie or bib....which will really be useful soon! And of course I got showered with a lot of amazing gifts from everyone, both my mom and Mike's mom each made an amazing blanket for the little guy. Only two more months and he will be here, and now we're ready with just about everything we could possibly need! Here are a few photos, and the rest can be seen at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/heidi_hagman/sets/72157594505210240/

Christmas 2006

We had a wonderful and relaxing holiday this year. With both set of parents living here we are spoiled that we don't have to travel and can spend some time at home with our families. The Kuglins headed to Bozeman for Christmas so we celebrated with my family the Friday before at my parents' house and it was great. Hailee, being 2 1/2 was very excited to open presents this year as you can imagine and was very helpful handing them out. Then we celebrated with Mike's family the following Friday since Melissa and Mindy were in town. It was a very nice time at Joe and Vi's and we also spent some more time with them over the weekend, going to fondue and a movie. So that left Mike and I to celebrate just the two of us over Christmas Eve and Day, and it was very nice to relax at home and play games and watch movies. We're very much enjoying our quiet time to ourselves while we still have it! :) Happy New Year to you all!!

Oregon Coast

In early November Mike and I went to visit our friends Julie and Ben in Portland. We drove to a really cool cabin they rented on the coast just north of Lincoln City and spent the weekend there. It was beautiful, we took a nice hike with awesome views of the ocean and did a lot of relaxing by the fire and playing games!

Whistler

We took one last getaway just the two of us over Thanksgiving and went up to Whistler B.C. We laugh and call it our "babymoon" before the little guy shows up. We left the Wednesday before Turkey Day and came back Sunday, and celebrated Mike's 31st birthday while we were there. It was the beautiful winter wonderland that we were hoping for, and we spent plenty of time in the snow and cuddling by the fire in our cute little condo. We took our snowshoes with us and went on a really pretty little hike around a lake that was just up the road from where we stayed. It was a great trip, other than we had to drive back to Seattle in a horrible blizzard and missed our flight! Luckily Melissa and Mindy were kind enough to let us stay with them for the night, and it was really nice to visit.

Baby Hagman

Well here we are at 20 weeks and today we had our ultrasound to find out what flavor the little bugger is. Turns out my hunch was right and we're having a little boy! At first he was busy sucking his thumb (as you can see in the first picture below) and not interested in showing us his stuff. But finally he cooperated and flashed us a very clear shot to prove his manhood. He's looking super healthy and everything seems normal with us both, which is a huge relief. He's in the 71st percentile for size right now at a whopping 12 ounces. I just realized that I haven't posted at all about the pregnancy, but haven't really had any pictures to show until now, and I'm pretty sure word has gotten around to most of you! We're really excited and time is flying by...time to start planning and getting ready for the little guy, he'll make an appearance around March 28th!
