Getting chunky

Today Joey and I went to go feed the ducks and he absolutely loved it and had a blast! Towards the end Joey must have been ready for snack time, because he started eating the bread himself. He loved feeding the ducks, though. He thought it was so funny when the ducks started getting frustrated with the other ducks over who would get the bread. He's such a sweet monster.

I also had my doctor's appointment today. Everything went great! I gained five pounds from last month and my doctor was telling me that I'm getting fat. :) Woo hoo!

Visiting Home

We had such a great trip home! Time always seems to fly by too quickly, though. We had a jam packed trip! Cindy got married, Papa had his 90th birthday party, and I got a surprise baby shower!!! Joey absolutely loved it there and we all ate so much food! We weren't able to squeeze in bahama bucks or corn dog 7, but that's all right. We more than made up for it.

It was really nice seeing family and friends and it always makes me so sad leaving. Just as Joey really starts to get comfortable with everyone we have to board the plane and come back here. I'm really happy that we're having Joey a sibling so he'll have some more family up here. He really enjoyed playing with all his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. I think he's got them all wrapped around his little finger.

Luckily, I am over my morning sickness! I got totally better just as we stepped off that plane in TX. I guess Ciera Jade just needed some TX air. What do you think about the name Ciera Jade? Anyway, I hope everyone is well and it was really great seeing you all! We love and miss you very much!

It's a girl!

Woo hoo! We had a great appointment this morning. The baby is healthy and measuring 6 inches long and she's a girl! We're really excited! She moved around a lot for the sonogram and it was hard for the nurse to get the pictures . . . she's got lots to do!

Joey really enjoyed watching the computer screen. I guess it looked like a computer game.

Happy 4th of July

I hope everyone is having a fun and safe 4th of July! I sure do miss the 4th of July in Texas. We would always wake up to go to the parade and fair on the square in Canyon and stick around for the fireworks afterward, but we've had a really good 4th here, too! We were able to spend it with some of our friends! We had yummy food and had fun watching Joey and Nicolas play together.

Please, please, please remember to say a prayer for us tomorrow morning! We find out the sex of our baby and more importantly to make sure things are still going well. I always get nervous during sonograms! I'll let everyone know ASAP whether we're having a Justin Tyler or Isabella!

Stay safe and put on some sunscreen!
