Gary, Caleb and I celebrated my birthday at home with a yummy dinner, and Gary and Caleb made my favorite cake – yellow with chocolate icing. Simple, but yummy! We celebrated my birthday with the rest of my family when we visited Waco during Thanksgiving. Caleb and I were able to spend a whole week at home in Texas, and Gary joined us on Turkey day. I had a great time visiting with friends and family over the week, and celebrating Thanksgiving with the family. I didn’t really have any belly pictures before that week, so there’s a couple my mom took of us at my grandparents house.
The week after Thanksgiving, we had our monthly Cub Scouts Pack Meeting. Caleb received his Bobcat and Tiger badges that day. Each time the boys get a badge, they put that badges pin on a parent. Good work, buddy! We are so proud of you!
The Friday before Thanksgiving, I had a doctor’s visit (checkup for the belly) and an appointment in Radiology for my ultrasound. Very exciting day! We found out that day that we’re having a boy. J As excited as I was to go to the appointment, I was even more anxious and excited to tell Gary what we were having when he got home from work! And a very odd thing, in my opinion – the Army doesn’t give you the ultrasound picture that shows the sex of the baby. Really? Honestly, what am I going to do with the picture but just keep it for m yself? Stupid rule. So, here are two of the best ultrasound pictures they did let me have. Can’t wait to meet him!! We’ve talked about names, but since we already know that he’s a boy we may be keeping that part to ourselves – because we can. Haha! J
I’m very excited about Christmas, as always. We have our tree and decorations up, so now I just have to finish my shopping!
