Big Brother!!!

Yes, it's finally official and out for the world to know... we are ecstatic to announce that Colby will be a Big Brother!! I am 3 months pregnant and am due on September 30th! We are very excited about the addition to our family! Colby has been pretty cute with it... he doesn't really understand, but on occasion, he will point to my tummy when he's asked, "Where's the baby?" So cute! We will need to get him a pretend little baby to practice being gentle around. I don't think little boys at the age of 15 months have the word or meaning of "gentle" in their vocabulary quite yet! We'll see... I've been feeling fine, actually too fine. Already putting on the weight because I'm eating so much! Such is life being pregnant, I suppose!! :) Only more to come! I had my first prenatal appointment this afternoon and the baby's heartbeat was 170... very fast! Colby's also started out very high (in the 160's, I think). We'll see if the wives tales have anything to do with dictating the sex of the baby this time!

Colby is one crazy little boy... he is such a chatterbox, I love it! I just wonder what he is talking about all the time!! LOL! He surprises us with new things he can do all of the time! At my parents' house today, he was standing on the floor, and the next second, sitting up on a kitchen chair. He pulled himself up and got on the chair!! So quick, this one!!

We are trying to get somewhat organized for our San Diego Spring Break trip, but it's not going so well. The list is still very long... and we leave next Saturday morning. While I'm excited, there are other things that are quite draining right now, like report cards and Parent-Teacher Interviews next week. Can't wait for a wonderful holiday with just the three of us!

Anyway, we are going to a wedding this weekend and Colby is going for a sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's. He absolutely loves playing there, so it will be a nice change for him. He'll have fun there... I'm just crossing my fingers he sleeps well, too!! Have a great rest of the week, everyone!
