Yep, Not Much Going On

General Catch Up

Okay so Ronnie's plane has been delayed and he didn't get home yesterday like everyone is hoping. (By the way - Ronnie if you read this your in some deep doo doo dude!!!) His new arrival day is Monday. And it is non too soon for his wife. Which is a feeling I understand all too well.

Yesterday it was freaking 93 degrees here. IN THE MIDDLE OF MARCH! That is just INSANE!! I was planning on waiting untill I was a little bit further along and it was going to stay warm to buy a bathing suit to wear, but when I woke up and looked at the themometor in the back yard and at 8am it said it was 80 degrees.... that plan went out the window! So off to Target I went, and picked up a maternity swim suit that is actually pretty cute and doesn't make me look insanely fat. The day before Jess and I had picked up a pool at Wal-Mart for Trace, well by the time she finished washing the cars - not only Trace was in it! I did get a little bit of sun but was very careful about making sure I had sun screen on. (No one likes a sun burn and if I'm lucky there will be no pictures of me sun bathing!)

Today I think we are cleaning up the house, and Jess and the boys will be coming down sometime to finish their welcome home sign that is layed out on my garage floor (to keep someone short from running all over it). Other than that its a normal sunday in this house!

Alien in there - Update

Today we had our first identifiable foot-in-the-side! It started earlier when I was up at Jess' house, I thought I just ate something that didn't agree with me - but it didn't go away. And then when I pushed on the little hard lump it pushed back. I think we have moved in to a diagonal angle with his head towards my right hip. After a while the foot in the side did begin to hurt a little - so I tried getting Chris to put his hand where the foot was so he would move - but even that didn't work! This little guy is stubborn - JUST like his FATHER! ;)

What's in a Name?- Update

Also today Chris and I decided that as of right now the baby will be a Jr. Yes his name will be Christopher Ernest. This was mostly because we can't decide on anything else. Ofcourse this is subject to change over the next four months - but atleast as of right now he has a name! We aren't positive yet what nick names we will use if the name sticks till the end - since there will be two Christopher's in the house so that just adds another piece to this puzzle we are trying to figure out! :)

Wow that's some crazy weather! We had a day of 84 degrees here in the SoCal valley last week but it was cool and windy again this weekend with some rain.

I can't believe all the alien action you're getting! I am still just getting the flippity-flop feelings - nothing visible from the outside yet. What are you eating??? haha.

And - you are BRAVE to be putting on a bathing suit - I guess one great thing about bedrest is I have a very legit excuse to never squeeze my big butt into one haha. :)
