Miss Little Burger has a NAME!!!

We are so excited to have such a perfect name for our little girl!

Brooklyn Kari Shamburger

Brooklyn is a name Austin and I have been in love with (chosen) for several months....

before we knew we were having Little Burger...much less a girl!

The middle name, Kari, is after my 2 wonderful Grandmas:  KAtie and RIta. 

Love them both dearly and could not think of better ladies for our little Brooklyn to be named after!  We just can't wait to meet her =)

We told the family with a little 'name scramble'! 

Each of the letters above were mixed up and put in an envelope.  It was so much fun to watch them try to figure it out.  Shamburger was obviously easy but it took a few guesses to narrow down the rest!

CC is ready for Brooklyn to come visit already.....crib is up, pink bumper attached, and name displayed!

What a great idea CC!!!

Dallas Stars Game

Happy Birthday to my brother Jason!

We had a great time hanging out all weekend and going to a Dallas Stars game!!! 

Although the Stars lost, there was a fight!  Gotta love hockey!

To all those who helped set up and take pictures...it was truly appreciated.

Week 20 - Ultra Sound

We are happy to report Little Burger received an A+ at our week 20 doctor appointment!

LB's brain, heart, kidneys, etc were all checked per our ultra sound and passed with flying colors!  This was the best news ever!!!  

Our little baby is still growing and developing and healthy - could not be happier!!!

Gender Reveal Party on Saturday!!!

Little Burger is the size of a small cantaloupe!

I am feeling GREAT!  A bit emotional at times but really just feeling normal - minus the belly growth.  My 'baby bump' is getting bigger....my clothes are getting tight!

I went shopping for some maternity clothes so I am prepared for the morning nothing fits!  

Based on my Gap Maternity experience....I am not sure why anyone would want to go back to 'normal' clothes!  Elastic wastes are awesome  =)
