Preview of the Christmas Tree

We'll follow up with additional photos later, but for those of you who
can't wait (me included) here is a preview picture.

The Mother - Week 11

As cute as ever. Don't tell her I took this photo. :)

Little Baby Thornton - Week 11

Wow, another week has gone by. My personal observation is that Shannon is starting to feel better and not having nausea as much. Shannon would definitely agree. There are a lot of things going on with the baby this week. Below are my favorites:

1. The baby is getting huge!! (1.5 inches)
2. The baby is now stretching and kicking, but Shannon won't be able to feel it for another month or two.
3. Some of the baby's bones are beginning to harden.

This baby is really incredible! It's facinating how it develops and at the same time to see the effect it has on Shannon. This baby better appreciate everything Shannon is going through for it.

'til next week.

Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall, Met Museum and Cloisters

Last Tuesday Shannon scored tickets for us to the Christmas Spectacular at the Radio City Music Hall. It was a really good show and both of us loved it. It was great to get into the christmas spirit. Above is a picture of Shannon with two Nutcrackers...wow, what lookers. I'd better watch out.

On Saturday Shannon and I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Cloisters. The Met was great and the Cloisters was really far away. I'm just kidding the Cloisters is definitely worth it, but take the train, not the bus, especially not the local bus. Below are a couple pictures.

Angry faces!!!!

Little Baby Thornton - Week 10

Wow, there is a lot going on in Shannon this week. Below are some of my favorites:

1. The baby's limbs now bend

2. No more webbed feet and hands.

3. Most women are now inbetween regular and maternity wear.

4. Womb is now the size of a grapefruit (normally the size of a pear).

5. The baby's hands bend at the wrists and meet at the heart.
