super fun!

Hello Blog reader people!!

How are you? Good? Great. So are we! (ps feel free to comment so I know who's reading, and tell me what YOU were up to this weekend!) :) Josh and I had a fun weekend! Sunday we went and tried out a Catholic Mass at a church semi-down town. It was GORGEOUS.. absolutely huge inside and beautiful... kind of bad lighting, meaning, there wasnt much lighting at all.. but pretty beautiful regardless... Then we went and got some sandwhiches on the circle downtown and sat on the monument steps and took pictures... we did the whole asian-tourist thing and took pictures of each other and made passerbys take our picture too... haha... youd think we were from another state for sure... but its something neither one of us had done before and I had a dress on for once, so I thought..well what the heck...

Josh started his new job at the brew ha-ha last week and today was his first day of non-training.. so he was pretty happy to get back to serving and make some money while we continue to dream up ways to make money on Ebay and whatnot... I think with his work ethic and my ability to swoon people, we could be billionaires someday :) haha. Anyway, Im really grateful and happy to have him here and we are having a blast...

Im doing pretty much the same stuff Ive been doing... Only now Im being taught how to cook a lot more than I used to...and how to keep the carpets clean :) haha.. Work is going okay...still hoping that someday I can do something more meaningful than try to convince people to publish their crap... but very blessed to have a job with insurance right now, so I should stop complaining...

Piper is... being Piper.... only better by like a hundred. Josh has that dumb dog so trained its sick. She still looks at me and flips me off in her mind, I think... but at least she is listening to SOME one.. there is hope for her yet.

Soooo we are now in week 16 of the pregnancy... thats 4 months.. holy smokes... cant even believe it... i feel like i say that every post, so i promise next time i wont.. but WOW. we had our last doc. appt last friday and the heartbeat was 154 and everything was swell. The next appointment is August 7th where we COULD find out the sex of the baby.. *ahem*... but we arent :) so the cool thing is though that we will get to see some REALLY great ultrasound pictures and even ones in 3D..which will totally freak me out but will be cool to have... So, heres whats up with baby.. (thanks to babycenter.com for the info--otherwise by the looks of me id think the baby was the size of a house right now)

Get ready for a growth spurt. In the next few weeks, your baby will double his weight and add inches to his length. Right now, he's about the size of an avocado: 4 1/2 inches long (head to rump) and 3 1/2 ounces. His legs are much more developed, his head is more erect than it has been, and his eyes have moved closer to the front of his head. His ears are close to their final position, too. The patterning of his scalp has begun, though his locks aren't recognizable yet. He's even started growing toenails. And there's a lot happening inside as well. For example, his heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day, and this amount will continue to increase as your baby continues to develop.

Oh and for my girlfriends reading this, it was great to see you guys:)
