Big News!!!

Well, Mike and I have big news- Giana is going to be a big sister!! ;) I'm 16 weeks along on Tuesday, due on May 17. We are very excited!!! Still very surreal sometimes!!! I'll have to scan in some of the ultrasounds. Everything is looking great and we'll find out the sex the end of December!!!
We've had a busy month! Giana and I flew home to St. Louis the beginning of Nov to meet my new niece Zoey. She is just so teeny tiny and perfect!!! And Giana absolutely adored her! Giving her kisses, hugs, rubbing her head, and was so gentle! Just the best!
And my parents just finished up a week long visit with us. We had Thanksgiving at our house this year. My Mom and I successfully made everything and it was pretty stress-free and 100% delicious!!! My parents were a huge help all week and Giana was sooo happy with them! And added Oma and Pops( their nicknames instead of Gma and Gpa) to her vocabulary! YAY! And my Mom and I got so much Christmas shopping done also! I'm about 95% done! This is the earliest I've ever done my shopping! Love it.
And in 2 weeks my sister Liv and bro-in-law Chez come to visit! And in 3 weeks we head to STJ to celebrate an early Christmas with everyone!!!
Giana update- talking up a storm!!!! Constantly chatting, repeating what we say, into EVERYTHING( who knew a 15 mos old could make such a big mess in a matter of a few minutes!) She is eating practically everything, except for pasta. The girl will not go near it. Crazy! She is now taking only 1 nap in the afternoon- but they usually last 3 + hours! She is still obsessed with "Lights"- seeing them, saying the word, turning them on and off. I know she is absolutely going to love Christmas! She just went for her 15 mos check-up- she now weighs 24 lbs ( 50% percentile) and is 32 1/2 inches tall( 90%). Tall and skinny girl!!
