Yep, Table of 4!

Getting ready to visit the animals at the University barn with Papa (he isn't excited at all, is he?!)
First off, thanks for all the congrats on our news. We're so over the moon and excited that we are going to be a Table of 4! However, I guess I don't really see us eating out all that much as I am sure life will be chaotic with a 2 year old and infant, but we are thrilled about it!

My second trimester is wonderful. It's actually blissful. I feel normal again. If it weren't for my starting to balloon belly, I don't think I would even know I was pregnant!! My first trimester was a blur of nausea and sleeping as often as I could - which was very difficult while my husband was coaching. He was great when he was home, giving me a break to take a nap at 6pm and then going to bed AGAIN for the night at 8pm! Ha!

We thought we were having the BIG ultrasound this week, but my OB says I won't have it until I return from Mexico. Oh well, I guess I wasn't planning to do that much gender specific baby shopping while on vacay!

Speaking of vacay, Mexico is here in just 3 days! WOO HOO! I am very excited to eat and eat, since I can't drink and drink - it will be nice to relax and we know Teague will be in great hands!

The sad news in our lives is that my Uncle Bola who was diagnosed with brain cancer a little less than a year ago passed away last week. Once he got sick he passed on quickly, which was a blessing. Nobody wants to see someone they care about suffer and have no quality of life. It's been a tough road watching my dad, who was so incredibly close to Bola (both are retired and live in the same community) experience the deterioration of my uncle over the past year. I think my dad will have some lonely days ahead of him, but I know he is looking forward to our new little monkey to watch over! Something about little kids can put a smile on just about anyone's face.

I hope you all are enjoying the snow---as far as I am concerned it can snow all it wants as long as I get out of here on time and it is spring when I return! =)

Adios!
