Griffin's Last Ultrasound


We went for our last ultrasound yesterday, and it was so great to see our little one again. He has grown so much, weighing in at 3 lbs 10 oz. He was sucking his thumb AGAIN, that's 3 times now (you can see it in the picture)! The doctor said everything looks perfect and right on track, what a blessing! The blood clot has resolved so we don't have to worry about that any more either. I can't believe we have only 2 months before we get to meet our precious baby! Time is definitely flying by. We have so much to be thankful for this holiday season, and I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!

Babymoon

Momma and Griffin at the Golden Gate Bridge

Jason eating Dim Sum! Yummy!

Knocked up and Locked up on The Rock!- Alcatraz


Beautiful day at the beach


Jason and I decided we wanted one last "getaway" for the two of us. We have some friends who were engaged in San Francisco, and hearing about their amazing time made us really want to visit. We left on the Friday before Thanksgiving and came back that next Monday. We had the most amazing time together. San Fran is such a wonderful city and the weather was beautiful. The only downfall I will say is that we stayed at the top of Nob Hill, yes HILL is an understatement. Leaving the hotel was no problem, trying to walk back to the hotel was like climbing Mt. Everest, especially when your packing a few extra pounds in the front. :) Anyway, this trip helped us remember how much we love to travel and explore new places together. We went down to the wharf, took a ferry to Alcatraz, went to the marina where my sweet Aunt June lived for many years, saw the Golden Gate Bridge, ate LOTS of amazing food, experienced Dim Sum, saw Grace Cathedral and walked the labyrinth, and shopped at Union Square just to name a few. It was a quick trip, but such a blessing. With all the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it was great to get away together and remember why we love each other so much! Babymoon success!!!
