Thanksgiving 2009

I don't have many pictures from Thanksgiving time, but this is what I have. Justin, Katrina and the boys came up to visit and we were all down at Gina and Richard's house. Then we went up to Chris and Mary's for Thanksgiving Day. And back to Mom and Dad's/Gina and Richard's for the rest of the weekend.

Baby Jackson sleeping, ssshhhhhhh, he finally fell asleep!

Mommy and Jackson, reading a book

Gina and I made a big batch of lefse, mmmmmm, I will have to see if I can find the recipe and post it on the Messy Kitchen Blog

Fresh lefse

Spread on butter and brown sugar

I guess Gina didn't want her picture taken

Haircut

I know it has been forever since I have posted anything, nearly 2 months. I loaded two months worth of pictures from my camera onto my computer and it is just a mountain to post everything that you have missed. So, I will start with something small and funny, Nate's haircut.

The less dramatic after

Craven Family November 2009

It seems like getting everyone together for a family picture is an event that happens every couple of years. There is always the excuse that the picture will soon be outdated, as there have been steady additions to the family. First with Gina's kids, then Justin's and now I am starting to have my own. And, even though it will be outdated in April, here is the latest Family picture.

Baby

We had our ultrasound today. Everything looks great, baby is in the 55th percentile for about every measurement, so that is good. Nate was worried about the ultrasound, so I think he is relieved, to see that everything is going just fine. The baby was moving around a lot, more than what I can feel. Nate was amazed at how much the baby was moving!

The doctor said that my placenta is at the back of my uterus, so I will be able to feel a lot of movement at the front later in the pregnancy.

We didn't find out what we are having, it will be a surprise!!! It was great to finally see the baby. Everything is there, now it will just gain weight and grow bigger every week!
