Maija at 8 weeks pregnant. She looks like a teddy bear. |

We went to Tahoe in Sept 2002. Here I am showing off my 3 1/2 month pregnant belly to Kellen. |

|
Here I am in November at 7 months pregnant. We hadn't picked a name yet so we called the baby lizzy at the time. Short for "lizard" not Elizabeth. |

Here I am in my 8th month relaxing. |

Here are the presents before we opened them! |

Beth Karpas couldn't make it, but she sent the most creatively wrapped present.
1. hand knit slippers
2. a card to explain that it is a tradition that all new moms need hand knit slippers
3. a stuffed bird house with birds to play and explore with. |

|
And here are all the presents opened! |

Here is the cake. The same cake that we had at the wedding. Chocolate Mocha from Prolific Oven with their cream cheese frosting! |

We spent most of the time swapping stories. |
