Niko is Here!!

Well, my goodness, the last post was in July!! After an emergency c-section (quite traumatic) on August 22, Nikolas Ronald Palassis (Niko for short) was born at 8 lbs 5 oz! We lived in quite a daze for the first six weeks figuring out how to take care of our little newborn and are finally feeling back to our normal selves. We love having Niko as part of our family and love seeing him grow! The pictures go from newborn, to one month, to six weeks, to two months. He has grown so much!

Amazing baby shower!

Hello all! Two of my best friends hosted a fabulous baby shower for me this past weekend. All of my friends were invited. There was amazing food, a beautiful cake, adorable favors, awesome decorations and lots of presents. I felt so amazingly blessed by all of my friends showing up to support me. This week we had a breastfeeding class and a c-section class. It is really hitting home that our baby will be here soon. More for Ally than Michael because she is getting so uncomfortable! Well, Michael has a "man shower" this Friday, we have a family wedding this Saturday and Ally's Big Fat Greek Baby Shower is this Sunday. Let's hope Ally can fit in a bridesmaid dress for Megan's wedding next Saturday (the 29). Heck, let's pray Ally and Niko can make it there!! Also, we find out Monday if we are having a C-section or not. Busy times! Thank you Mary and Laura for an amazing shower! I am still working on all the left over food!!

Welcome to our life!!

Hello all!

Welcome to the fabulous Greek life of Ally and Michael!! We just moved into a new home and now we are preparing for our son, Nikos, to enter the world in six to seven weeks. Wow! Ally just had a baby shower last weekend, while Michael got to see a movie that Ally probably couldn't handle at 8 months pregnant (Pirates of the Carribean 2, hehe). We will try to add some pictures of Ally, Michael and Niko's room soon!
