Our First Christmas Tree

Here I am at 38 weeks and counting...we had a great Thanksgiving at Patty and Charlie's...the "Cranberry Pink" was definitely something new and tasty. Our bags are packed and waiting for me to pop. Here we are with our first Christmas tree. After being married for two and a half years, Dan finally let me get a tree!!!! We didn't realize how big the tree was until we open the bundle when we got home!

37 weeks and Counting

Here I am at 37 weeks. I know, I look like a whale and feel like I'm about to pop. My patients at work kept making comments if I'm 3 weeks overdue! I am feeling well overall, thank God! But do require a lot of sleep. We are hoping this baby would come early, because I can't wait anymore! I can't wait to see what he looks like!

One of my favorites 

Today cousin Rebecca did a photoshoot to remember how pretty Jo looks pregnant. Her work was selected by her school to be displayed at the local Borders...Too bad the management wouldn't hang it up- too much nudity for the children's book section, we've heard.

Here I am at 32 weeks and 5 days! I've been feeling really good. The baby is kicking a lot. I've been getting up to go pee about every three hours now. I don't think I even need an alarm clock to wake up because I'm up all night anyways. Dan is just finishing up ER rotation. We've been attending some prenatal classes. It's definitely weird learning how to breath. 

View of Vancouver from Stanley Park. We can't wait to take our baby on a bike ride at the park:). 

Here is Dan digging in.  

Yum..hotpot!  

This is the Sun Yat San's park in Chinatown. There is a similar one in Taiwan. Its only chinese garden outside of the Far East. 

And OF COURSE we went to go visit Chinatown! I was in heaven, pastries everywhere! 

Couple of weekends ago we went to Vancouver for a little getaway. Here we are at Stanley Park. 

We went ahead and started on the baby's crib. We couldn't wait for this gift of God to come! 

So as my pregnancy continues, this baby is popping out. Everyone I come in contact with kept telling me I look like I'm about to deliver! Do I actually look at big? Here I am at 29 weeks. 

A preview of what Dan and I's kids might look like... 

Burk Kids. 

Zachary was great help at putting the gifts away. He was probably the only guy there too. 

My girl friends from UIUC, Judy and Carla. 

Here is my sister and my sister-in-laws at the shower. 

I went home to Chicago for a baby shower thrown by my mother-in-law and sister-in-laws. Here is the top tier of the three tier cake. Yeah, Mo went a little crazy.:)
