Listening to worshp music

Today was a semi relaxing day. I was able to work from home and therefore got more rest then usual and did not have to put in my normal 2 hours in the car... sweet. This evening we went to Tal's for dinner... ummm... calzones! Kyle was helping Tal with some 'banker' talk so the baby and I chilled on the bed while she listened to some praise and worship... what a life. :)

The 'man' of the house

I really don't think Toby has any clue how his life is going change in just a few months. Since December he has been the 'man' of the house. Yes, we try VERY HARD to discipline him... but he usually get what he wants, especially when Kyle is not around. I am hoping and praying that the closer we get to his 1 year birthday in October that he will start to listen more and be a little calmer.

If he is still as crazy as he is when the baby comes, his life will change very quickly and I don't think he will like it. Lets just say he will have to learn how to enjoy the backyard by himself.

I must say that there are days that he is a great puppy. He listens all day and is very calm. And still there are other days that he is just plain wild. Although, this week he has been really great. He even learned a new trick. When I give him a treat I leave it on top of his paw and he is not allowed to eat it until I say. He got that one down really fast... maybe it's a sign, he really is a smart, obedient puppy.

Sorry, time has not been on my side...

To our thousands of readers out there (all 3 of you) sorry for taking so long in between posts. The last few weeks have been crazy busy at work and then by the time I get home the last thing I want to do is get on the computer. And Kyle, on the other hand, has begun his 'Fantasy Football' league addiction and you'll be lucky if you see him blog any more after the season starts. Example, tonight he does not feel well, I think he might be coming down with a cold, and has been complaining all day about being tired, but when we got home - 10 mins ago, I asked him if he would be going to bed with me since he did not feel well...


His response, "nope I just need to update my football leagues real quick, so can you hurry up on the computer."

I said to him, "well at least I know where I rank."

He said, "yeah, it's a good thing we're clear on that."

So, if I rank that low on the totem pole, I think it is safe to say that the blog does not even make the list for him.

Any how, all is well with the baby. She is kicking and moving all over the place. I will post a 'weekly' picture this weekend.

19 weeks and feeling great. Our baby girl is moving all over the place! I love feeling her move and the fact that Kyle can feel her kick is really cool. I also LOVE knowing that she is a girl. Being able to refer to the baby as 'her' rather than 'it' is much nicer! Now I am looking at nursery ideas and having fun shopping for a little girl. I know Kyle will make a wonderful dad to a girl, he is already such a great husband and big brother that having a little girl fits him just right.

We went to our doctors appointment yesterday and found out we are having a little girl! The funniest part was that she would not let us see if she was a boy or a girl at first. She was sitting just right, but as soon as we went to look she slipped her hands between her legs. Either she is already taking after her dad and is even honory in the womb or she is just super modest. Either way it was pretty comical because she did it twice and then the third time she let us take a peak. :) We are so excited and it really is nice to know. Everything else looked great on the sonogram and we are set to have our healthy baby girl on January 1st (hopefully a few days early).

Movement!!!!

Here I am 18 weeks prego and I can feel my little baby move inside me! It is the coolest and strangest feeling in the whole word! So far, it's been little movements, nothing that Kyle can feel, but I know (s)he is there and kicking! For that past several days it has been happening at about 10am, right after lunch and again in the evenings. It is very cool.

Our next doctors appointment is August 7th and that is when we have our sonogram. I have let Kyle decide if we are going to find out the sex or not and he is having a very hard time deciding... what are you opinions, should we find out the sex of our baby?
