Mini Golf

Here by popular demand is a picture of my pregnant self. I am only half way so you can imagine what a whale I will be in 4 months. :) And after looking at this picture of myself, I have concluded I could use a few days in a swim suit to work on my upper arm tan.



We finally made it miniture golfing on our third attempt. I had more fun laughing at Paul's expense than actually golfing. We had a really good time. We think Paul should go pro; what do you think?

Happy 2nd!

Happy Birthday Paul! As I was reminiscing the past two years and what a energizer bunny Paul has been I couldn't help but get a little overwhelmed with the next two years. It is amazing how much development occurs in such a relatively short period of time. Paul is starting to talk quite a bit. Unfortunately, I can't always understand what he is trying to tell me and frustration follows. I think that is part of the term terrible twos. The other day in the car Paul was trying to tell Pat and I something and he kept saying the same phrases over and over. We tried to decipher it, when finally I turned around so I could try and read some body language. There was a caterpillar on the car window that he thought was pretty cool. He was telling us all about it.

Paul loves trains and so we made him a choo choo cake. The first thing he said when he saw it was, "truck." :( I was a little disappointed, but I've recovered. Paul got quite a bit for his birthday from us and relatives. He's one lucky kido.

Paul's favorite part of the Mr. Potato Head was a piece that made him stick out his tongue. He thought that was pretty funny.

For Paul's birthday we were planning on taking him miniture golfing, but when we got to the course it started raining. We settled for Chuck E Cheese instead.

Cashing in our tickets. Paul can recognize a sucker a mile away.

Paul left one happy camper from Chuck E Cheese's. We love you Paul, and we are so glad you are part of our family.

And The Verdict Is...

It's a boy! The doctor's visit with Paul there was a fiasco, but the good news is that everything appears to be normal and healthy with our little boy. I am sure Paul will be delighted to have a brother. So all of you who speculated that it was a girl because at the beginning of the pregnancy I felt great for so long (different from Paul), and then all of you who speculated it was a girl because when my sickness did come it was much worse and lasted much longer than Paul; I will never depend on your speculations ever again. :) We are very excited to have a healthy baby boy on the way though. Now for the hard part, trying to pick a name.
