The weekend of the 8th, Tracy flew to VA for a baby shower hosted by her sisters, Marcy & Kel (in from SF) and mom. It was a Hokie theme!! It was fun seeing everyone and we received a lot great stuff for Baby Ward...still scheduled for April 20.
While Tracy was in VA, Stan was in CO with a friend from VT, Horton and his 6 year old son Drew. They got in plenty of skiing...Vail on Saturday and Breckenridge on Sunday.
The following weekend, President's weekend, was spent at home doing lots of chores, painting the baby's room and packing up the house for our last rentors until July. We then dropped Frisco off at Erica's house and headed to the airport together to fly back to VA. Tracy spent the week visiting friends in NOVA, then we set off to Roanoke for another baby shower, hosted by Stan's mom and sister. More great stuff for BW and we got to see family we haven't seen in a while and our Hokie tailgate crew, including Ellie (Sweet's and MA's daughter) who is now walking, and Jeff & Jessica's girls, Caroline and Isabelle, who entertained our nieces, Ashlynne and Morganne.
Tracy flew back to CO Monday. Had the 32 week Doctor visit (yep, that's 8 months). Everything is going well. I'm on the 2 week doctor visits now. Stan had a "gig" at O'Sullivan's in Arlington Thursday night, then flew to CO on Friday. He's out snowboarding at ABasin today. It's been in the 40's, sunny, bluebird skies the past couple of days. Supposedly calling for snow tomorrow, but I'll believe it when I see it.
I've posted a bunch of pix, so enjoy. I'll try and be better at updates the next couple of months and of course when Baby Ward finally does arrive, we'll try and do as good as Marcy & Stuart with their lilyandjackk.blogspot.com (updated ever Monday)!! Very impressive. Kel, not so much...

Burke Baby Shower Cake...yummy!!
