Josh's poor ankle and his Wonderful parents!

Sounds more and more like Josh's ankle/foot is broken. Friday he went water skiing with some friends, and crashed, like always, but not like always, his foot got stuck in his boot. Ouch! The thing swelled up twice the size of his skinny little ankles, and after a Dr. visit yesterday, we are pretty sure he will have to be in a cast for 6 weeks. He is less than thrilled about that. Thursday we will know more after he has an MRI.

Since Josh isn't walking very well, his dad came out last night to mow our lawn. How nice is he? I told him I was fully capable of walking behind a mower, but obviously he felt differently. :) I have to admit, it was so nice to have him come take care of us, but it was also nice to have some company! We love visitors! Thank you again Richard and Chris, for all you two do for us. We are so blessed to have you as parents. We love you!

Countdown

I only have 16 more weeks to go.

That's 112 days.

That's 2,784 hours.

I'm not excited (ready to not be prego) or anything.

Nursery and the infamous Pregnacy Photos

We finally got the nursery painted, and I LOVE it. This is before (the purple is cute, but I wanted something a little less girlie. Also, sorry for the rotated picture, it wasn't cooperating)

This is After:

These are for Summer. Notice the total amusement on my face. This is 22 weeks - 18 more to go.

The Verdict

After some coaxing, the baby cooperated and let us take a look.

It's a GIRL!

The ultrasound tech said right off, "You have one Photogenic baby" until it came time to check between her legs. She had them crossed just like a little lady. She had her knees in her chest, and was moving her little mouth like crazy. Looks like we might have a talker on our hands. :)

Everything looked normal and healthy (thank goodness) and I was told the placenta is in front of the baby, so that is the reason I haven't felt a lot of movement. That was reassuring. Hopefully in a couple weeks I will be able to feel her moving and shaking around in there.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes and congrats!

Boy or Girl??

Ok people, time to guess. The big day is tomorrow, considering this baby will cooperate, we find out the sex.

Pink or Blue?

Today I am 20 weeks. Exactly half way (if I go the entire 40 weeks) Which is so weird to think about. I sure am showing, and will post pics soon (I promise Summer!)

Did you notice?

The baby ticker on my sidebar?

Our baby is due 1/11/2011. Pretty cool, huh?

Also, did you notice my HUGE belly forming? I did, and I am reminded each day as I try to squeeze into my pants. Am I really supposed to be gaining this much weight this early??

I also have other body parts getting bigger, and now I feel I know how my sister Keli lives....well, a few letters of the alphabet smaller, but I still get an idea. :)

It is amazing how the body changes and adapts so quickly.

Now, if I could just find my motivation....I know I left it around here someplace.

It's been awhile

Well, I guess it has been awhile, AND, I am SUPER busy at work, AND I have no Internet at home, AND, I have been really lazy. :)

Things are good. House is wonderful, now if we could just move it about 20 miles south.... It is a little far away, and my commute has caused a few swear words to fly, but I am trying to maintain a good attitude and suck it up. My 10 minute commute, and being able to run home at lunch days are over. Too bad.

We do have great friends and family who all have packed a lunch and made the drive to come out and see the place. Thanks you all, and all of you who haven't, give me a call, I'm open anytime.
