Baby!


Here's the Sib! The Dr.'s report says "Genital organs normal..." So, we know it has a sex, we just don't know which one it is :p

Minnow wasn't too keen on the whole ultrasound idea. I asked her if she wanted to go see videos of the baby on a big computer screen, and she acted horrified that that was a possibility. Maybe she's a Luddite? ;) She also reprimands us when we ask her if she has any thoughts on whether it's a brother or sister: "No. It's just a baby."  She has given us a few name suggestions, though: Bovvy, Yardo, and Toe.

But, she warmed up once we were in the office, and she kept trying to put pillows under my feet, "So you'll be nice and cozy." She also enjoyed when we pointed out the baby's butt to her. :p
Afterward, we got her some French Fries and took her swimming at a really cool "aquadome" pool. My favorite part of the day was on the way home, when she said to me, "Mama, you were SO, SO brave at the doctor. I love you so much."  <33333 (That's what we told her when she got her molluscum bumps removed at the doctor's office).

Here's a couple side-views, and one head-on alien face :)

Our summer has been great and full so far! We've gone to a county fair, the mountain quite a few times, to numerous pools, to a kids' fest, a medieval fest, strawberry picking, and lots and lots of parks. We're headed to TX in a couple weeks. We better cram a lot more in before we have to hibernate in our apartment with the kids(!) this winter. It's already fall here...

Here's a glimpse of our summer adventures thus far:
