Maple and Bennett

we had a baby day with friends around Patterson Park at Andrew and Kelly's place.. Andrew holding Maple and Genna holding Bennett. This is the first time we've caught up with Dave and Genna since they moved to Oslo, Norway for the past couple years.. now back in MD / DC..

all nice and clean.. not for long =)

momiji takes a nap in the corner

Mmm, boiled diapers for din din.. she better watch that belly getting to close to things now

beth gets the cloth diapers in, and has to boil them to remove the natural wax of the cotton because they were all natural and not bleached. she's having a blast, and will probably think of these things as fun again after early november..

great pic.. I love this one.. Beth and momiji pose for a tummy shot.. getting there, but still a ways to go..

pack and play / basenette in background as mom and momiji relax in bed.. little froggy in background in the window..

we put together are pack and play, which will serve as the basenette and small changing area in our bedroom during newbord phase... momiji decides to test out if its comfortable enough for peanut..

a rare weekend lazy moment, we just enjoy... peanut is getting bigger and we are starting a list of names..

yep... its getting bigger. Beth asks me every other day 'do think I'm getting bigger'.. I think its fun... Its only just begun... she is now hitting the point, as one of our friends stated, where people can rest easy saying ' oh, your pregnant, how nice..' without the risk as of you just being a bit pudgey.. they suggested the shirt ' i'm not fat, i'm pregnant'

momiji getting as much attention as she can before the child comes...

beth's cousin's son Kevin.. now has a brother Mason we have yet to meet.. babies abound in your 30s

beth and momiji take a rest from a busy day and talk over possible names for peanut..

a little later... we are exciting and starting to grasp the idea of our first child.. as Beth belly starts to pop, its really starts to hit us... little peanut will be here before we know it.

beth takes some initial belly shots... maybe 8 weeks or so ??
