Which one is more pregnant?

We are having a contest to see who can be fatter by August. I think I am winning. Meghan has gained a few pounds of tummy weight (isn't she adorable??), but I think I can still take her in a pie eating contest or a black hole look alike contest. You see, that's funny because black holes have so much mass that not even light can escape their gravitational pull. I'm like that, only fatter. That's actually extra funny because since you can't see a black hole, a look alike contest would be impossible.



P.S. Have you seen the late night ads for those bags that shrink stuff? They are awesome and really work!!! Check out the before and after.




Here is my cutie's most recent picture. What a cook she is too!

We're Having a Baby!!

Hello friends and family! We (well, Meghan) wanted to create a blog to help people keep track of us during our (my) pregnancy, rather than sending out numerous email updates.
We had our first ultrasound today and IT's A BOY!! Derrick was thrilled! It was exciting to see that he had two arms and two legs and 1 head (I had a terrible thought that we'd go to the ultrasound and it would be a two-headed baby!) He weighs 9 ounces and is quite wiggly. All seems to be healthy and on track to be born around Aug. 24th. I will only have 1 class left in my degree so it will be great timing. Derrick will hopefully be finished with his degree in May 09 and then we'll move ... somewhere! So keep us in your prayers as we he grows and as we transition into parenthood.

We will update with baby news and pictures of my ever growing belly!


This picture is of us minutes before we found out! At this moment we have no idea what we are about to get into!
