The Shepard Crew: April 2008

Hints about viewing pictures, slideshows, and video:
If the pictures are too small: Click on the picture to see a much larger version. Click the back button in your browser to return to the blog.
If you'd like the .jpg file for a picture, right click it and choose "Save Picture As..."
To see slideshows better: Click on the slideshow to "activate" it. Then click the plus to speed it up or the minus to slow it down. Hover over a picture to see the caption for that pic.
To play videos: Click the video to "activate" it and then click the "Play" button (the triangle). I like to pause it immediately and wait for the whole thing to buffer so I don't get blips while watching it.

Pics at 31 weeks... Yes, you see my belly!

It has come to my attention that a few of you out there are a little "ooged" out by seeing my bare belly. For the squeamish of you (wussies), I am doing you this little favor and posting a picture of my big ol' belly with a shirt covering it. Beware... if you scroll down too far, you WILL see pics that include my belly button! :-)

And now for the bare belly pic. Folks... there's no denying it. Lisa is pregnant. And Squishee is ready to declare it to the world by expanding that belly of her mom's! I guess we knew this was going to happen, right?

To answer your next question: Yes, Sean is afraid. Very afraid! :-)

More fun with family and friends in Portland

In mid-April, we were blessed with a beautiful spring day that ACTUALLY included sunshine. On this gorgeous day, we were lucky enough to get even more family and friends together at our house in Portland. Dad and Mom Shepard and our family friend, Robbie, flew up to gather together and join in another pre-celebration of Squishee's coming arrival. This little munchkin of ours sure has some wonderful family and friends to meet when she shows up!!!
