Spent some time decorating for Valentine's Day today. I have one box of decorations- I barely made a dent in decorating this huge house! I settled for staying in just the kitchen, where the small volume will make a larger impact.

This is a picture of me when I was a baby. I wonder if Little Cub will look like me?

Even though the nursery is still under construction, we wanted to do something fun and baby-related. We put together the crib that used to be Sam & Lily's that Grandma Bev gave to Stephen and Kerry and put in the bedding we got for Christmas from John's parents (thanks, guys!)

John's still home sick from work so he came along to my doctor's appointment. We heard the cub's heartbeat and talked a little bit about the delivery with Dr. Eborn. It was fun to have him there to see what I do at my frequent doctor's visits and to document the experience.

I had lunch with my friend Emily today at the Capitol. She's the Speaker of the House's assistant. I used to work here last winter and it's fun to visit the old stomping grounds.

John worked from home today because he wasn't feeling well. I loved having him around!

I spend a lot of time at my computer- blogging, downloading music, editing photos, reading the news, emailing, paying bills, and recently, Skyping with my family members who live far away. This is me at the end of the day (in my bathrobe) waiting to talk to them. It's an 11 hour time difference, so we often talk in the early morning or late evening.
