Blasts from the Pasts

So Mark and I are notorious for buying disposable cameras when we forget to bring our digital cameras. However, we also never bring them to get developed. This past weekend, we finally rounded up all of the cameras and took them to get developed. Attached are some fun pictures from recently and far ago:-)
The pictures of Mark and I underwater are from our snorkel trip when we were in Hawaii. For those of you that remember the 2003 Hawaii trip, it was before everyone had the digital cameras and we brought a camera with real film. The film was zapped through the x-ray machine when we left from DC, so we only had these cameras. It was the worst snorkeling ever--barely any fish until they started chumming off the back which is when I got back in the boat!!

Next there are several pictures from the first weekend in February when we celebrated Tim's 30th birthday. Tim's birthday is actually in May, so Emily really planned the perfect surprise! The boys all went and played paintball in the afternoon!

Then, if you look above, you will see a picture of Mark at Jenn LaPorta's baby shower. Important to note--her son, Christian, is now two years old!!

Below that pic is Mark and I at the MS Bike tour through Manhattan. We did this October 2007--was wondering what ever happened to these pictures.

Finally, the last picture below is of Mark and Brad just now in February. Mark is pretending to be Brad from when they went to West Virginia and Brad is not impressed.

Enjoy these blasts from the past that we just discovered!

So plans continue for the arrival of Baby Smitty. He has really started to impact our lives now. First, we have finished painting his room (see picture) and he has a crib. We just bought the bed and the other furniture was delivered yesterday...everyone will have to wait to see that at our BBQ in April! More importantly to me, however, is that I now have very few normal personal clothes that I can squeeze myself into (not that I am trying that hard), but on the plus side, Julie gave me jeans that aren't too long, so I'm really not trying except during the week when I need some variety to my suit outfits!

So it took me a whole month, but here are some pics of Hailey's christening! Isn't she the cutest?? She is so much fun and you could just hang out with her all day. I held her while the water was poured over her head--she was so good and only was really fussy I think because we had to lean her down. I missed her the moment we left and can't wait to see her in April!!

A pic at 24 weeks


So this week I have been pregnant for 25 weeks, but this team shot was taken last week of the NYC PFG team. Can you find Ali?
