Month 5: BELLY

Ok, now we are cookin ;-) All of a sudden this month my belly has grown!! Its now undeniably a baby bump.. strangers are even getting the courage to ask when I am due!! I love it, its fun to actually look pregnant instead of just looking like I forgot to go to the gym for 4 months, hehhehe

This picture was taken today, right before we left for our hospital tour and orientation :D What a fun experience!! We absolutely LOVE the hospital, all the nurses were so nice and informative. They did a great job of walking us through the whole processes of where to park, checking in, what to expect in the labor and delivery room and then the maternity room. We then got to see the rooms we would be in, which are sooo much nicer than we expected!! And my favorite news of the day, as long as I have a normal delivery baby caines receives all care in our room!! yipppeeee, I have been worried about her leaving the room, giving Erik strict instructions to leave me no matter what to be with baby, LOL But to all get to stay together is the BEST!! Yep! I get that I am over the top and crazy and you think that I might want to take advantage of the nursery for sleep.. but I am a first time mom and Im allowed to be a little crazy :D

 Also took theses pics before going to a Halloween party! Bump is a little harder to see in all black, but wanted to show off our cute costumes.. Erik was such a trooper for being my scratching post.. perhaps a little metaphorical of the past 5 months, hehhehe

Erik couldn't let me have all the fun shopping.. this was so cute!! He went to a comic convention with a friend and came back with these, baby caines is already daddy's little princess, I LOVE it :D

Also, other BIG NEWS Erik felt baby caines kick for the first time this AM, it was totally awesome!! She was putting on a little show for him, kicking all morning :D Lazy Sunday morning in bed as family are like the absolute best thing, can't wait for her to join us outside of my belly!!

Have a lovely week!!
