My Halloween Morning...

I got up extra early to vote today and on my way to the voting location, I was taking a left turn at this veeeery stale yellow/red light signal and got pulled over by a cop going the opposite way in traffic. Bummer! He asked if I knew I ran a red light and I said "Yes, I know I did. I thought I could make it. Sorry." So he takes my DL and when he comes back, I see that he wrote in the comment section, next to where he drew a picture of the intersection, "I thought I could make it." I had no idea they quoted you on the ticket. :P Then he said "Try to have a nice day" to which I replied "Thanks and have a happy halloween!" :) I completely deserve the ticket so lesson learned - watch out for cops when you run red lights. JUST KIDDING! :)

Week 13 - end of 1st Trimester

I just went for a walk around the block and thought I might as well have my picture taken since I'm starting to show now. My running shorts were a bit tight so I'm wearing them down low. I haven't been this big since I drank so much in college!! :P Today is a chill day at home. Bryce is grilling, I'm doing laundry and there's endless college football to keep us entertained! UT plays OSU in just over an hour - GO HORNS!! It's great to be #1. :)

Maternity clothes shopping

Lately my mornings have been tough and at times frustrating because I have trouble finding pants that I can still fit into for work. Problem solved today - my mom, Ruby and I went shopping and I discovered secret belly fit pants! They are extremely comfortable and I highly recommend them for non-pregnant people while eating Thanksgiving dinner this year. :) No one will know the difference! Now I'm actually looking forward to picking out what to wear tomorrow.

My first blog ever!

Welcome to the Baker News Flash! I thought this would be a great way to keep friends and family posted on the latest Baker happenings. :) For those of you who don't know, we are expecting a Baby Baker in April of 2009 and we couldn't be more excited! This is our first and only U/S so far taken at week 11. I'm currently on my last week of the first trimester. Hopefully we'll be able to find out the gender in 3 weeks so stay tuned!
