My brother Kevin just sent me these from the last time he and his wife were out here. They were just too cute not to post. Kevin never checks the blog anyway so no worries of him being all embarrassed at his funny faces. He did, however, convince me when I was younger that if you hold your face in a certain way for over a minute it will stay that way. ...
The next picture is the face he got stuck with:
Here is our first portrait of our darling third child! Isn't he handsome?!?! This was as good of a profile shot we could get. Too bad, since it is fun to see how much the other kid's ultra sound pictures looked like them.
He even had an audience at the "viewing"! Grandma Kincaid, Daddy, Jake, Liv, and Aunty Karen all piled in the room. Good thing he wasn't shy! Here is proof that I am carrying a boy! (the only time it could be "acceptable" to post a photo of this type online!!)
Jake was jumping up and down on the chair so excited that it was a boy! He kept saying that now he has someone to watch the Seahawks with! When he saw the spine he thought that the baby must be a crocodile!! I can sort of see how it might look like one... or like an alien....
The best part is that everything is healthy!! (And that I am having a boy! I knew it from day one..... yay!)
I was discussing his name with Olivia (it is semi-secret) and she informed me she would not be calling him the name we chose. She would call him Batman! So I hope you enjoyed Batman's first photos!!
Something occured to me a couple of days ago.
I am pregnant.
Yep- you'd think throwing up and being miserable for 3 months would have clued me in. or the fact that I have recently gained a huge amount of weight.... but no. It just dawned on me.
One day I will have more than just an eating, sleeping, screaming, pooping, and crying infant. I will have a child that learns to sit. to crawl. to walk. Huge revelation, I know.
Anyway- just thought I would share this sudden news flash with my faithful readers... or reader....
On a diff. note. I have been obsessed with the fact that my sister is in Ethiopia! For the past week and a half or more I have been living 11 hours ahead of my surroundings trying to imagine what life is like there for her and Lincoln and their two new children, Meskerem and Paulos. I haven't heard a lot from her, which is KILLING me... but I know they have had struggles and break throughs already. They come home Sunday night. I can NOT wait for her to email photos and have a skype date! (ok. I will settle for a phone date. I know the skype date might be stretching things a bit with 4 kids in her house now!)
I'd better sign off now. My nachos and salso are getting cold (I ate the last pickle last night. Had to settle for this type of bedsnack.).
