Jill's "Sort of Before" Picture

June 13. At this point I'm about 6 weeks pregnant, which is as close to a "before" picture as we're gonna get.

New House to go with New Baby

Yesterday, we found out we are pregnant, due February 7. And today, we found out that we got the house we put a bid on a couple days ago. So within about 24 hours, we have gone from a childless couple living inside the loop in an apartment to a Mommy and Daddy to be who just bought a house in the suburbs! Whew! Big changes to come! We'll be closing on the house on July 15.

The Big News!

With so many family and friends far away, and Baby Lustberg coming in February, we figured we needed to find a way to keep up with everyone without completely filling Inboxes constantly. So, welcome to our blog. We plan to post something about once every week or so, if we can really keep up with it. Feel free to remind us.

We're backdating this post and will do so for several others, just so we have a record of the getting-ready-for-baby process. So to start, here is the picture taken about one minute after we found out we were going to be parents, still sitting in the doctor's office, right after Jill stopped crying. Enjoy the humor!
