6 months and counting...

Well a lot has happen since the last time I was on here. I am obviously pregnant now and even strangers are noticing. Three weeks ago my parents came for very short visit. It was so great to see them after their warm and fun trip to Mexico (can you tell we are jealous that we didn't get to go). I took a picture of the only souvenir they bought on their trip.

Baby's first outfit for the sun

Two weeks ago the Thompson clan came for a visit. We had a really great time with them too. Even Buddy made himself at home. Even though Katy had the token baby dream that I was having a boy, once she saw me she recanted and now thinks it's a girl.


Who knows we are still waiting to be surprised but I think we are starting to get a little impatient with that.





Last weekend, since basketball is pretty much over, we got a chance to register for baby stuff. That was fun but again I found myself registering for a lot of yellow stuff to try to stay neutral. I think on my next shopping trip I am going to get boy and girls stuff and then enjoy the benefits of returns once the baby has arrived. The only thing left is to decide on a crib. We are getting excited for our shower back in Zittau in April. It will be great to visit with everyone.





The baby has been moving like crazy and I can actually see him/her moving when I watch my belly (especially during sermons at church :) I go to the doctor's this week for my check-up and everything seems to be on track. For a couple weeks there I had my full-strength energy back, but now I'm back to being exhausted. My got me started on measuring myself around. I am 39 1/2 inches around the waist and growing. Here is a new picture of my belly. Next project...find an outfit for Easter!
