Aunt Deb & Laura hosted a McCulloch family shower for me in Janesville, Wisconsin on Saturday. We had fun the morning of with a long walk on the trail and preparing the brunch! Baby Isabelle received lots of new clothes, bibs, and her high chair! When the boys returned from playing golf, Mike saw all the gifts and said..."Everything is PINK!" I think he's a little overwhelmed by all of it :)

Uncle Jimmy's Wedding...

We headed up to Wisconsin for the weekend...Mike's cousin Jimmy got married on Friday night. The ceremony was in a beautiful country chapel and the reception was followed with live music downtown Stoughton. All of the Marcks family was in attendance...traveling from all over the country. It was great catching up with everyone. (Sorry I didn't take more pics!)

Jimmy Buffett Concert...

Maggie, Kel & Courtney
Zach, Mike & Clay

Last week Mike and I attended our annual Jimmy Buffett concert at Verizon. This year we had Courtney & Zach and Maggie & Clay join in on the fun! The show was great fun, as usual. And surprisingly, I was NOT the only pregnant crazy there...there was a woman timing her contractions during the concert! Next year I will NOT be the sober driver...

A day at the pool...

This big guy can WALK now!
Meg & Oz in the Lazy River

Mikey has been gone all weekend on his annual baseball trip with the boys...so while he was away...Kelly played! I kept busy with spending Sunday with my best man, Oscar!!! For those of you who do not know, he is the little man I have been nannying for since January. This summer I haven't seen him much, so Meg and I decided to take him to the pool for some quality time together.

Oscar has started walking (I cried when I witnessed this b/c he wasn't even crawling when I started watching him)...he loves to talk on my cell phone (or anything resembling a phone)...and he has found my protruding belly button (and compares to his!). Super fun.

Meg is one of my favorite people...so we had a blast! Oh, and Meg and I have been setting up an arranged marriage for Oz and Izzy :) They just don't know it yet....

7 months Prego!!!

24 Weeks...
28 Weeks...

Today marks the 7th month of our pregnancy...we are officially 28 weeks out of 40 weeks pregnant! The final stretch of 12 weeks is approaching...and it's getting more exciting every day! Our OBGYN visits are now every 2 weeks. My weight gain and measurements are right on track. I even passed my glucose test last week (no gestational diabetes for me)!! The nursery is coming along...we just have to paint (celery green is the chosen color). Let the final countdown begin...

Our very best friends, Sam, Bridget, Luke & Maggie Tynan, were visiting Lake Tippy from Omaha this week...and you better believe we spent some quality time with them! With Nancy & Joe's new house completed...there was plenty of room for us all!

There were lots of boat rides...Kelly even learned how to DRIVE the boat! Of course, parking/docking had a learning curve...but it was a fun adventure Kel & Bridge took while the boys were away!

The boys played golf two days in a row with Big Joe...and even squeezed in some miniature golf out back! The mini course had quite the theme this year: 60's Rock & Roll.

The girls, including Maggie, went shopping at Shipshewana one afternoon...great people watching!

But of course, the best times were spent laughing on the boat with best friends. Mike even tried to climb the YMCA camp's huge iceburg on the lake! It was a sight for sore eyes!!

We hope to make it back up this coming weekend to spend more time with them, as we miss them dearly!

Friends Visit the Lake!

The Bowden Family

This past weekend, Mike and I had the pleasure of enjoying the company of Clay, Maggie & Jackson Bowden at the lake! The weather was beautiful and the water was warm. Jackson had his first boat ride and lake swim! Mike & I had a great time getting to know the Bowdens better and continuing to learn the life of new parents. Looking forward to more special times with them in the future!
