A Yay! List...

• Yay! for working appliances, our (2nd) new dryer seems to be working ... (Washers and dryers are a very cool thing to have!)
• Yay! for two-year-olds ... they might be loud, messy and busy (very, very busy)but there is nothing like seeing those little eyes light up when they see you. And who else runs to get a hug when you get home. (All the cuter when accented by a puffy black jacket with hood up and brand new rubber boots!)
• Yay! for being done with jury duty for at least 2 years ...
• Yay! for the 'Durable Medical Equipment' benefits with our health insurance ...
• Yay! for active little (unborn)babies that let mom know they are there ... (nothing like it!)
• Yay! for a hubby that can (and will) do quilt math ...

And if you are wondering, Yay! is the opposite of Boo! (I looked it up!) :p

Do you have any "Yays!"?

Chef Caleb

Caleb has picked up a new passion. Cooking. He likes to put all the potatoes he can find into the oven, close the door and then in a minute or two (if that long) where ever he is at he will start yelling 'Beep...Beep..' at the top of his lungs while running for the kitchen. He will then, very carefully with hot pads, remove the potatoes from the oven while declaring them 'Hot, Hot...' We all get a huge kick out of watching this and don't worry, the oven is never on when he is doing this. (and yes, he is in training pants! That's progress, slow progress, but progress!)

21 Week Ultrasound

Today we had our 'mid-pregnancy' ultrasound. Everything looked good. Baby weighs about 1# already - Woo-Hoo! Now the growing begins. Yikes! :) S/he is also facing down and is pretty much completely on one side, that explains some lopsided issues. :-/ Here are a couple of pictures. The 2nd one is a 3-D pic, it is kind of weird, but interesting as well. (I think anyway!) Ok - for direction as it seems to be needed! What looks like a bottom at the top of the pic is the top of the head. Below that looks like there is a huge nose Then a cute little mouth with a hand mushed to one side of the chin. Does that help?! Oh, yeah, We stuck to our guns... We are officially excepting a little surprise! :p
