J'dub, Daddy, & Grandpa walking on the beach

My Summer Vacation

Our trip to North Carolina was so much fun. We went with my parents to visit my Mom's side of the family and to go to the beach.
Here is a list of some of the things we did/saw:
  • J'dubs first airplane trip
  • Auntie M's sailboat in SC
  • Uncle Frank's band, Muddy Ford, perform
  • played Wii for the first time (way too much fun)
  • The Atlantic ocean
  • The Wright Brothers Memorial in Kitty Hawk
  • Bodie Island and Currituck lighthouses
  • NC Aquarium
  • Swimming in the hotel pool
  • hang out at Grandma H's house in Elizabeth City, NC
  • Just relaxing and having a good time
  • Completed my first big person book since J'dub was born
It may sound a little nuts, but I think we will take my parents on all our vacations. It was a lot of fun and they were a HUGE help with J'dub. They even held him most of the plane ride home to keep him entertained.

And baby makes 4.

Well there has been a dearth of updates but for good reason! We have some news!

We are having another baby!! Yeah! I'm 11.5 weeks along and things are going so well. We heard the babies heartbeat on Monday and that was just wonderful. With J'dub they had trouble finding the heartbeat so we had an ultrasound at this point. With Baby #2 the Dr. was able to find it right away.

Baby #2 is expected on December 11, 2007. As I will most likely be having a repeat c-section, it will probably be the 11th or slightly earlier.

We broke the news to Papa Bear's family by creating a movie poster that had a picture of J'dub wearing a shirt that says, "I'm the big brother!" and advertising the movie, "The Big Brother." We put it in an empty picture frame that has been hanging on the wall and waited for someone to find it. We ended up having to nudge them to look in that general direction as we were losing our patience.

We told my parents on Mother's Day by putting J'dub in a t-shirt that I made for him that said "Big Brother to be." The look on Granny B's face was priceless.

So that is the big news. Now that the cat is out of the bag, I expect to be much more blogative.

Next post.... update on our trip to North Carolina.
