Hottest day of my life!

Alright everyone. The time has come and I finally have some pictures. But first for a little story.

So this past weekend was Memorial Day weekend and we decided to do a group camping trip. It turned out to be a beautiful weekend by the lake with some great friends. BUT right before we left we discovered that our Air conditioning is not working. There was nothing we could really do because as I said we were leaving to go camping. Anyway the guy has been here for a few hours running back and forth to get parts to fix this thing but to no avail. So we are sitting here miserable thank goodness it is only in the high 80's outside. I am really hoping this thing gets fixed tonight so that I can actually get some work done around the house tomorrow.


Now for a baby and life update.
I can finally feel baby moving (at least I think so). What a strange feeling to know there is a little baby in there moving around. Tomorrow, Wednesday the 2nd is our only 'official ultrasound' which means we get to see the little guy/girl. We are still on opposite sides of the fence on finding out or not but for now we are going to wait. There are CRAZY rules for me to follow tomorrow though. 1) empty bladder at 11:30 2) drink 1 liter of water between 11:30 and 12:30 3) nothing else to eat or drink after 12:30 and no using the bathroom. Not looking forward to that. But it must be done. They won't even see me if my bladder isn't full. It is amazing to think that I am already past the half-way point but good to know at the same time.




This picture was taken at about 16 weeks.
Not much of a bump yet




I have decided to take all my main belly shots in the same dress. 5 months and belly bearing :) Still a little hard to see though.



I fly home in a week and absolutely cannot wait!!! Jon is on night duty until the 10th which will be nice because we will have days together. His section is out in the field for the next couple of weeks and deployment talk has started again although nothing is ever for sure until there are orders in hand. We are just praying that Jon gets a little bit of time with our new baby before having to be gone for a year.

Other than that and this awful heat in our house things are going great for us out here in Kansas. We love and miss you all.
