Down the baby building road

Today's post will be a timeline of the incredible journey mom went through during the past 9 months. We are firm believers of the importance of caring for your baby from day one and of course mom was very successful as she has been in everything else in life. Diet, exercise, nutrition and staying healthy involved staying away from a few of mom's favorite foods and some other sacrifices but it was all worth it in the end. Being extremely fit to begin with certainly helped as well. Here are some shots of my beautiful wife and the activities we maintained after finding out she was pregnant.
A short trip to Arizona:
We were also able to continue our camping adventures:

At her bros house:
And back at home again:
As time went by and Brooke started to grow - so did mom:
Even though we were past the acceptable 24 week cut-off point for cruising we managed to "sneak" on the ship at 27 weeks and still had a great family vacation.


Throughout all this, mom kept a smiling face while at work:
Even though sometimes she felt like this while at home:
With the house almost ready for Brooke's arrival, Mom wins an award for going through the whole experience like a champ.
 We can't wait to meet you Brooke:
