25 weeks and counting . . .

  Our appointment went like this: check in, pee in a cup, weigh, blood pressure, any questions, dinner! We have one more month until our two week appointments start. It's so weird how fast it has gone. We did get to listen to her heart beat again. It was pretty funny, she was kicking like crazy when the doctor had the probe up to my belly. I don't think I've felt her kick that hard before. She must not have liked it. Already acting up! I have to do a glucose screening test on Friday. This is just a routine test they do for all pregnant women. I guess the stuff you drink is pretty nasty, so I asked for two bottles, one for me and one for Jordan. My doctor said men wouldn't be able to handle it! Likely excuse.

Here is a picture of me at 24 weeks.
This is right before we left for camping at the coast.

  Everything is going pretty good. Just the usual swelling and back pain. But nothing too unbearable. Jordan can really feel her kicking now. It's alot of fun haveing him feel her moving around. We are still getting everything under the sun for this baby. Check out the latest.

Memorial Day Fun . . .

  We had a blast camping at Coos Bay over Memorial Day weekend. I would have never guessed the weather we had. It was sunny and warm the entire time, with the exception of Sunday night when it decided to rain. But the trip was practically over by then anyways. And we all had sunburns as proof of the nice weekend weather. We left on Thursday and came home Monday, a perfect amount of time. It was so much fun until Sunday night. Almost half of the camp got sick with the flu. Not fun! So at 3am Jordan wakes up and has to make a mad dash to the door. Then again an hour later. Come to find out, everyone else was doing the same thing that night. Monday morning was really rough too, packing up when everyone is sick. I ended up driving home while Jordan slept. But by Tuesday everyone was feeling much better. At least the flu hit on the last night, so the whole weekend wouldn't have been spoiled. Next trip, Seattle to watch the Mariners play (hopefully), if not 4th of July weekend at the coast.

We didn't need the heater this trip so our camper was awesome!
The bronco makes it's first trip out.
This is the boys digging up some barrels they barried
last trip. They marked it on the GPS and then found it again.

This is what happens when you fall asleep by the fire!!
It never fails, we always have to fix someones tire at least once.
These are the barrels the boys dug up. Barrel racing on the dunes!
Chad wanted to be first so he would always beat Jordan! Ha Ha :)
What a handsome fella!
Who's that pregnant lady, and why is she riding?
