Maternity Updates

Maternity Pictures

This is the montage that we used to announce our pregnancy.  It is 15 minutes, and slow loading, but cute! If you do not have Windows Media Player, or it does not play for you properly, right click on the link shown below, choose 'save link as', and and save it to your computer to view. (This took HOURS to upload on our dinosaur computer, it is 46 MB's!  I have no idea how long it takes on DSL, but it's gotta be faster!)
