Marchin' On!

March has been my absolute favorite month so far because we were able to finally tell the world that

WE ARE HAVING A BABY!!!

We've had a blast sharing our big news and can't wait to expand our sweet little family!  Here's how the rest of March went for the De Leon household.....

Lee started off the month with worship rehearsal practice for church, attending a few doctor's appointments with me, U of A basketball games, and playing guitar on Sunday morning.

The following week Lee worked late, I worked a bunch that week, we had lunch with Camille, we watched lots of basketball for the Pac-10 Tournament, and had a great time at the 241 social at the Hutchinson's house.  Such a relaxing week and a calm before our crazy storm that followed in the next three weeks.

Of course, we had to watch the bachelor finale on Monday of the next week.  I was so happy that Brad picked Emily....haha!  I had more doctor appointments and worked like crazy before heading to Texas for a week on Thursday while Lee worked the NCAA Tournament at McKale.  He loved being a Team Host to Penn State....too bad the team lost so early in the rounds at U of A.  I had a blast hanging out with my parents, brother, nephew, and grandparents.  Mom and I got to do a lot of shopping for maternity clothes and I definitely got some really cute things!!  Here are a few pics from my trip home.




I returned home on the following Wednesday night and in time to watch U of A take on Duke on Thursday night.  What an exciting game?!  The Cats won the Sweet 16 game and on Saturday we headed over to the Welches house to watch the Cats take on UConn in the Elite 8.  So sad the Cats lost but we had a great time at the Welches!

Finally, the last week in March was filled with Pi Phi meetings, Lee's friend Trevor came to visit and stay with us, lunch with Jenny, dinner with the Ingram's, the the Young's farewell party to finish off the month.  What a joyous month of marchin on for us!

Fabulous February!

Well, it looks like I am already behind on blogging for 2011 and that may only get worse as the year goes on!  February was just fabulous for us and here's a little of what we did this month....

Lee started off the month working looooooong hours as he put together his very first "thank-a-thon" at U of A where the student athletes call the majority of the donors and thank them for their support.  Overall, that went very well and was a HUGE success.  I am so proud of my Hubs!!  I started off the month working, going to girls lunches with my girlfriends, celebrating my grandmother's 81st birthday from afar, attending our ABF teacher's meeting wtih Lee, going to see the Gym Cats (U of A's gymnastics team), and going to a Super Bowl Party at the Perry's house with Lee.

The next week was filled with celebrating Aunt Susan's birthday (again from afar), having dinner with the Campbell's, going to Betsy's birthday dinner at Blanco (yum!), lunch with sweet friends, and finishing the week with my mom and Gran coming into town.  We had a blast getting pedicures, having dinner at Gavi, going to the casino, church, and lunch.  Mom even did some baking while she was in town....I love when she is here!

The following week started off with Valentine's Day.  Oh, how I love getting pampered by my Hubs!  We had a nice dinner at the Ritz Carlton here in Tucson and I could just sink my head into that chocolate lava cake right now.  It was sooo delicious!!  We also had our 241 Leadership Team meeting at our house that week as well as a few doctor's appointments, the U of A basketball game vs. Washington State, dinner with all of my former BGCT co-workers, and we finished off the week with an amazing U of A basketball game against Washington.  I just love the Cats!

Finally, the last week in February was filled with Pi Phi meetings, FCA Breakfast with the Pros, lunch with sweet Alexis and Betsy, another doctor appointment, Lee heading to Texas to spend time with his family, dinner with the Ingram's and Rohret's, girls dinner with Betsy at Cheesecake Factory, and another around of Pi Phi meetings before picking Lee up at the airport.

What a fun and relaxing month we had.  We are so blessed with a wonderful and amazing friends and family to share it with!
