Announcements continued...

I guess its about time I made my own announcement....I've been meaning to do this for a while, but since most of you probably already know, it seems rather anticlimatic...

We're pregnant :) According to the calendar, the munchkin should appear around Valentines day - or approximately 26 weeks from today. Now I know there is a fairly small percentage of babies who are actually born on their due dates, but I think it would be kinda cool to have a Valentines baby. Come to think of it - especially if it was a girl, cause then someday her husband would only have one less important date to remember because there would be two special occasions on one day! Ok, now I'm blathering....

Before I get the standard question 50 times or more - I'm feeling quite well - at least I am now. I still have a little more fatigue then normal, but then again me and summer never got along that well anyways! The last couple of weeks have definitely been a lot more comfortable since I've come into my second trimester. Everything has been fairly uneventful so far and we hope it continues that way! I got to hear the munchkin's heartbeat for the first time last week - so now it seems a lot more real - and since I'm pretty much in maternity clothes full time or at least using my Bella Band on a few of my pair of pants that I can still fit into - I can't forget about the new little life inside of me anymore :) I should be scheduled for an ultrasound in about a month - so I'm pretty excited about that!
Besides that news - I had a good trip to Idaho - spending lots of time with Amy and little Luke - and I got to see all the rest of my family except my grandparents who were elsewhere on vacation. I miss being around my family sometimes - and after seeing quite a bit of them all this year and not having any plans to go back it seems even sadder to be away now - especially knowing that the little squirt will be growing and changing so fast in this time when I can't see him very often :(
Anyways - here are a few pictures from the trip and the times before and since :)
Ok after waiting for 15 minutes for photos to upload....TWICE the same thing happened and blogger just displayed the "This Page Cannot be displayed" page.....so I just wasted half and hour with no picutures to show for it - I HATE the blogger photo uploader - I'll just upload them elsewhere and post a link....sorry.
