Bump to Baby: The First Trimester

In December, our family will grow from 2 to 3 and while we are well into the 2nd trimester now, we have some special memories from the first trimester that we want to etch in virtual ink now to reflect on and remember later:

- Dad-to-be’s lengthy internet research of what a positive pregnancy test looks like
- Mom-to-be falling asleep at a Cubs game at Wrigley Field
- Confusion and misinterpretation of the announcement postcards. No EJ isn't going to be playing for the Cubs in December.
- Darius Rucker concert at Converse College
- Riley was a bridesmaid at a Lake Lure wedding (the wedding party figured out Roo was a Mom-to-be a few weeks earlier when she turned down a glass of Hop, Skip, & Go Naked at a Bachelorette weekend luncheon)
- Morning sickness in the morning church service sent Roo to the kitchen trash can
- A family trip to Edisto…and work trips to Atlanta, Savannah, Tampa, Texas, and Chicago
- Craving pickles and watermelon…and broccoli casserole
