On Saturday Sean and I participated in the St. Patrick's Day 2 mile walk at Mission Bay Park benefiting Rady's Children's Hospital.  We went with our friend Mike from work and his wife Cassie.  It was a little overcast but it was perfect walk/run weather.  Afterwards Sean and the others enjoyed free beer at 9am from Stone Brewing Company here in San Diego.  A little early, but it was to celebrate St. Patty's Day after all.  Dominos was also giving away free pizza, but that was just taking things a little too far so we opted for breakfast afterwards at Coffee Cup in La Jolla instead.

We got a chance to hear baby McZimms heartbeat today. Seriously, it just sounds like a lot of galloping. The lone ranger totally came to mind. The doctor says it's one of the strongest beats at this age that they've heard. With this and that picture of him doing a Michael Phelps impression, looks like we have an athelete on our hands!

Sean and I went to the San Diego Wild Animal Park yesterday.  We went on the tram ride that simulates a safari through Africa and saw flamingos, rhinoceros, giraffes, and all sorts of other crazy African animals.  Then we stopped by the gorillas, checked out the monkeys, and walked through the aviary.  We got a membership so we can go to the Wild Animal Park and the San Diego Zoo as many times per year as we want to.  It was a perfect day, in the sixties with a slight breeze.  It can get really hot inland and in the summer there are lots of tourists, so it was nice to get out there in the winter time where the crowds weren't so bad.

Sean and I had our 18 week anatomy ultrasound on Wednesday and were so excited to find out that Baby McZimm is a boy!!!!! More importantly than that, however, the ultrasound tech checked all of Baby McZimm's body parts and organs to make sure he is developing correctly and she said Baby McZimm looks very healthy! We saw his spine, the bones in his arms and legs, his stomach, kidneys, and all four chambers of his heart which was beating like crazy! She also measured his head, his abdomen, and his thigh to make sure he was growing proportionally, which he thankfully is.

Once again our baby was moving around during the ultrasound, but instead of turning to face the camera every time, he was apparently camera shy and turned away from the camera every time the tech moved the ultrasound wand. When she tried to look at his spine he flipped around and showed his belly. So then she'd try to get a picture of his heart and he would flip around again. Fortunately the tech was very patient, and we got all the pictures she needed. The only picture we weren't able to get was a good one of his face. We have a couple profile shots, but every time he faced the camera directly he would put his little hands up in front of his face and block our view! At the end he decided to use the placenta as a pillow so we couldn't get a 3D photograph either. That is ok though, I always think those are kind of creepy. I guess he wants to keep his cute little face a surprise until we meet him in person which is fine with us! :)

Check out the attached ultrasound pics for photos of Baby McZimm at 18 weeks and 6 days, or approximately 4.5 months!

Hello friends!

Sean and I are so excited to announce that we have a baby on the way! Baby McZimm is due on June 17, 2010, and we couldn't be happier. I am currently 17.5 weeks, or about 4 months pregnant, and we will get to find out if we are having a boy or a girl a week from Wednesday. Here are some ultrasound pictures taken back in December at 12 weeks. Baby McZimm was doing a lot of water aerobics during the sonogram! He/she kept flipping around to face the camera, so it took some patience for the ultrasound tech to get these pictures. We got to see the heartbeat, and our baby was wiggling around, putting her/his hand up to his/her mouth (presumably to suck it's thumb), and jumping and stretching around in general. One minute Baby McZimm was facing my stomach, the next minute Baby McZimm flipped around and was facing my back! It was so amazing!

Can't believe it's so nice here and not so good almost everywhere in the US. We are truly lucky I guess. Anyways, Cleo came along to get a much needed walk, and enjoyed every minute of it. See for yourself!

We were on the beach at about 7:30am and I found a starfish that was washed up a little past the wave break. I picked him up and put him back in the waves. We didn't see him again so hopefully he got back into the sea. He was blue, that was kind of weird. I've never seen a starfish on the beach before.

We moved to San Diego on September 1st, and we love it already. We have been making an active effort to go watch the sunset as often as we can. We don't make it every night, but we do make it most nights. Last week we even saw a herd of whales migrating south for the winter. We could see them blowing water into the air way out on the skyline. Amazing!

We hope you will come visit us soon!

Well, this post is long overdue, but the past couple of months have been CRAZY! Unfortunately while we did raise over $2,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society we did not raise enough money to meet our minimum commitment with Team in Training to run the Nike Women's Half Marathon. We were going to run the Big Sur Half Marathon instead, but it is already sold out :(. Looks like we may have missed out on this season of half marathons, but we are still running and training so we will look to run one when the season kicks off again in April! Thank you so much for all of your support, your donations will really help a great cause.

Eileen & Sean
