I will start with the sad news. My parents dog, Bailey, passed away. He was 11 years old. The day that my dad called me to tell me, I broke out into tears. First of all, you can't tell a pregnant woman, who considers her own dogs her children, that a dog very close to the family passed away. To top it off, to have her Dad crying when he tells her, is even worse. When he called, I immediately thought something must have happened to either my Mom or my sisters. When he said it was Bailey, it was just as bad.

I don't think anyone could even guess how many pictures where taken during and after. It's been a fun filled weekend and Connor is loved more than he will ever know!
I was saving the best news for last. On May 21st, Bryan and I went to my 20-week anatomy scan, only to find out that we are expecting a little girl! I was laying there during the
