a quick game of catch up

Everyone, thank you so much for all the love showed to our family! We were so excited to share the news with you. We made that little video for Marcus's parents who are on a mission in London until December. We hadn't told anyone on the Nielson side we were pregnant because we really wanted to surprise his parents with the {long awaited} news, as well as the gender all at once.
It was so fun to watch their faces (via facetime) as they watched the video and figured out what was being set up and then to find out we were far enough along to know the gender as well. We're so excited to have them back in time to meet the little one in and out of the cocoon he currently resides.
Anyways, since I haven't shared any belly shots, here are the few we've taken so far--it's taken me a long time to show, hence the lack of progression photos. I just felt weird taking pictures of a belly that didn't exist yet, so now that I'm finally showing some progress I think I'll try to be more on top of things ;)
