Pretty Low Key

Not a whole lot has been happening in our lives. Last Friday I had off of work for Good Friday and this past Friday I was sick--I could get used to a four day work week:). Last Friday morning and Saturday night we babysat Gavin. Good practice I suppose:). I had my ultrasound follow up appointment on Monday and after waiting over an hour for my appointment, it took the doctor about 1 minute to tell me about my u/s. As long as everything is okay, that's fine by me!! We also bought a new car this week--I'm sure Baby will enjoy it:) These next few months I'm sure we'll keep finding more and more stuff to buy for Baby!

Who is in the stroller??

Elvis of course!!

Ultrasound

They're a bit hard to see since I scanned them in (and crooked because I was in a hurry:) ).

Getting Ready For Baby

We had our ultrasound today and it went well! The tech can't really tell us anything, but at least we saw the baby and it looked good to us! I'll post pics later once I scan them in. It was just amazing to see it moving all around. She said it was a very active baby. Hopefully it calms down before it comes out:).

A year ago today was when we left for Mexico last year. We were talking about it today via email and someone suggested we go again in 10 years--10 years?!? We'll be close to upper thirties by then--yikes!!!!!!! That's way too far off to think about--I'd like to just focus on this year:)

Yesterday we went to my parent's for lunch which was nice since we hadn't seen them for awhile. My mom and dad left for Mexico today--I'm very jealous! It was my birthday lunch plus my mom (and Em) had some clothes for baby so that was fun for me. It was fun to put baby's stuff in the closet. Joe currently keeps his clothes in the baby's room (currently Elv's room:) ) so we've been working on moving Joe's stuff into my closet in our room. We're making progress! Here are some of baby's new stuff--so cute!! And no, there isn't pink in there for an particular reason--my mom saw it on sale and thought it was cute and figured if we can't use it, someone else is bound to have a girl and can have it!

Lazy Day

Today we babysat nephew Gavin all day. It was good because it kept us in the house and away from spending money running errands as we often do on Saturday mornings (and evenings). I got some laundry done and did some reading, but aside from that I didn't do a whole lot. I asked Joe if he was sure he wanted a kid and he said there was no going back (only kidding, Gavin!). We all had nap time this morning (even though we had plenty of sleep last night!). Joe, Elv, and Remi enjoyed napping in the sun while Gavin was comfy in his pack and play.

Gavin enjoyed some applesauce and Elv looked after Gavin while Gavin played.

Elv and Remi had fun times playing together. They look calm here, but trust me, they are not always calm! A good day was had by all:)

They Come and Go Too Quickly

Another weekend is over and done with...sadly:( They always fly by and before I know it I'm back at work. We kept pretty busy this weekend. Friday night was the youth group fundraiser for their trip to MT this summer. The entertainment was Calvin's improv group, River City Improv. They did an awesome job and were very funny! Then Saturday we ran errands and I had Lindsey's shower in the afternoon. The guys hung out while we were at the shower and then we just watched a movie at Brad and Jill's afterward. Sunday was the usual church, dinner at Joe's parents this week, and then back to church and Bible study after church. Here are some pics from the shower.

Yes, that's Lindsey behind the diaper.It was hard to get pics of Lindsey with all the children crowded around her!A baseball shirt for Darrell...I didn't notice any camo...although I might just not remember it, there were a lot of clothes!
Mobile...I think...
Lindsey's family knew us as the "Mexico Girls".

Preggers!!! (in order of due date) I was standing on my toes...why am I still short?!?
