Cousins

Before Kathy and Tyler left on their cross-country trek to North Carolina, we got all the cousins together for a photo.  If you look closely, you can also see almost everyone else that was there in the mirror.  We are already missing having these guys around, but we are excited for Tyler to do the MBA program at Duke.  Plus, now we have one more great place to take a trip and one more good reason to go!

It's a Girl! Again!

It's another girl!  We got to see her again on the ultrasound today.  My doctor said that she still reserves the right to be wrong, so they will confirm or change the gender in four weeks at my targeted ultrasound.  I am 19 weeks tomorrow, and due November 18th, at least for now.  It seemed like the baby was measuring a little bigger, but I don't know if it will be enough to change the due date.  Things are going pretty well overall.  I didn't get as sick this time, and I'm feeling mostly normal now.

We are excited to have two little sisters running around the house soon, plus we already have everything we need.  Now I can just focus on getting things that I want!

I haven't decided on a nursery theme yet, but I am going to be thinking about it and looking around for ideas.  I'll also be looking for some fun girly projects, so let me know if you have any good ones.

Pool Party Baby

I took M to the public pool for the first time last Friday.  (She has been swimming lots in my parents' SwimSpa.)  We went with a bunch of our friends and had a great time!  M is a real water baby, and I can't wait to take her again with Chris.  We even went down the big twisty slide a couple of times.  By the end of the day, you could tell that M thought she was a big kid that knew how to swim, because she was fearless.  Next time, we will bring more floaty toys, and I will also remember to put sunscreen on the tops of my feet! 

Downstairs Bathroom

Chris and Jon finished the downstairs bathroom today!  The only thing we have left is to get the glass door installed.

We are very excited to have this project complete!  Since we planted the yard two weeks ago, our big projects are finally finished, and we can enjoy a relaxing summer.  Chris will still have a class for school, but we should be able to handle that with what we've had on the schedule lately.

Fun Pictures

Here are some fun pictures we have taken recently.

I think they pretty much speak for themselves.
