The One with the Gender!

It's not just a Mini Cooper; it's a Minnie Cooper!! We think we're going to call her Cora though :)

Look at her cute little nose! I love it!!

She's perfect! And perfectly healthy. So far, so good. Wish I could say the same for myself!

The One with the Announcement

I can't believe I haven't posted this to the blog yet!! It's actually the reason I haven't posted much recently.

I guess I let the cat out of the bag with the last post anyway. We find out the gender today. Super excited!!!

The One with the Pair o' Docs

Justin passed his dissertation defense today! Woo hoo!!! He was amazing!!

It's a tradition in his research group to open a bottle of champagne and toast the new PhD. The new grad then writes their name on the cork and hangs it from the ceiling of their group office. It's a big moment! So proud of him!

This is the white board outside his office. Earlier it read " It's almost over Justin!"

Oh yeah, this was sparkling grape juice. 

Nonalcoholic for the pregnant and Mormon :)

Dr. Cooper!!

Update: I took Justin to Ruth's Chris steakhouse to celebrate. We even dressed up; it was so fun! FYI- they are the place to go to celebrate. We told them Justin just defended his PhD and we are expecting our first child. Our waiter was awesome, the food was perfect, and they gave each of us a free dessert.

Congrats to Justin for graduating!

And congrats to me for getting pregnant! Let's be honest, that's the hard one ;)
