Gable's being promoted - May 2012

Last night the official facebook announcement went out so I figure I'm finally safe sharing this here! Official due date is May 15th. Even though no one seems to really have their baby on their due date, we're probably ok assuming he or she will arrive sometime in May.

In case you don't want to do the math, a due date of May 15th means I'm 18 weeks pregnant. But the first thing I learned was that you really don't know you're pregnant until weeks 4-5. So this means we've known since the beginning of September. We waited to tell out parents after our 12 week appointment (end of October). And while it's been a hard secret to keep for so long - it was most defintiely harder for our family to keep it quiet. But thankfully we all made it :)  

I have so many posts I've been wanting to write that relate to the baby, so get ready! :)

Race for the Cure 2012

I've done Race for the Cure a couple times before, but this year's was definitely the most memorable one yet. It was back at the end of October but I realized I hadn't posted on it yet and the pics are just too funny to forget. This year Mom and Dad walked it with Jackie and I. And Jackie's friend Liz walked with us too. And it is thanks to Liz and her infectious passion for the race that this year was so memorable!

Can't wait for next year and some more wacky costumes!

IMT (Half) Marathon

I'm such a proud wife! Matt ran his first half marathon last weekend and he did awesome! Becky and Stacey ran it with him and they did great too but this wasn't their first. It was fun but a bit chaotic trying to figure out where to cheer them on. We missed seeing them cross the finish line but got to see them at the start and at mile 9 and 11.

Aunt Peggy flew in from New Jersey and it was so great spending the weekend with her too. On Sunday after the race, Mike & Kathy and Courtney all came over for a holiday-like dinner (lunch). Both Kathy and Peggy turn 60 this fall so we celebrated their special birthday. And Mike got a little shout out too since his 62nd bday happened last week. It was a bummer that Conley and Kelly weren't able to come but it was still a really great celebration.

Snapshot

One of our dear family friends got married yesterday - June 9th. Becky couldn't come to the celebration because she's living out in Estes Park for the summer but here's a pic of Mom, Jackie and I!

Of course... mom and I end up wearing similar dresses... like mother, like daughter. :)
