New Home Sweet Home.

Well it is finally official we are in our new house. For the last two weeks we were moving into a new bigger house. Because of the baby on the way we now are eligible for a three bedroom house. It is so nice to be in a bigger house with more room. Last Friday the guys from Robs office came and moved all of the big furniture. We couldn't have done it without all of them. We started sleeping here last Friday night. And finally we cleared our inspection on Thursday. Now the fun begins and we have to unpack and get things finished in the new house. I will try to get some pictures as soon as I finish each room.

Attack of the tooth fairy



Well the tooth fairy struck again. Yesterday while MacKenzie was in school, during her human body class no less, her second tooth fell out. MacKenzie saved her tooth in her lunch box and brought it home to put in her tooth fairy box in hopes that the tooth fairy would leave her some more money. As you can see in the pictures tooth #1 is coming in nicely. We are happy to say that the tooth fairy did stop and left MacKenzie a whole $2!!!! I wonder which tooth will be next.

The SOCEUR Birthday Ball


This year is SOCEUR's 51st birthday. This year they decided to have a formal dinner and night out. Rob and I went and had a great time. I thought that I would post the picture that we had taken so that you could see us all dressed up and everyone could see my growing belly. We had a lot of fun and it was very nice to get out just the two of us. We know we need to take advantage of any opportunities like this that come our way because come May we will have our hands full. It is very exciting becoming a family of four but we know that with a brand new baby our time will be full of baby duty and making sure that MacKenzie doesn't get lost in the shuffle.

Fun with Ice




On Friday night MacKenzie and I finally got a chance to watch Rob play ice hockey. He has been playing with some of the guys from work in an adult league. After this game they had family skate time. MacKenzie couldn't wait to get on the ice and try her hand at ice skating for the first time. I of course did not ice skate. I am not that good at it normally, so being six months pregnant proabably wouldn't have been pretty.

MacKenzie had a great time. She did get tired of the skates after a while and took them off and opted to just slide around on the ice in her snow boots. We both had a good time and it was really nice to get the chance to see Rob out there on the ice even if they didn't win.

The Mystery Continues

Taking cues from its older sister the baby did not cooperate and let us find out what it was. We did get to see lots of great things. The baby's heart is beating very nicely and we could see all four chambers pumping. We saw hands, feet, legs, arms, toes, fingers, and the spine. Everything looked great. One thing that we got to see that we never saw with MacKenzie was the baby was sucking it's thumb. That was really cool. And the doctor commented on how active the baby is. Like she is telling me something that I already didn't' know. But for now the mystery continues. I go back to the doctor on March 3rd and hopefully someone will be in a more sharing mood. Check back to see how things unfold.

Today's Theme Song

So all day today I have been singing the song "Tomorrow" from the play Annie. Tomorrow is the day that we go for our big ultrasound. They will be looking at all of the babies organs and making sure that the baby is growing well. We are also hoping that we will be able to find out what we are having. We really don't care whether it is a boy or a girl as long as it is healthy. But we would like to start really coming up with a name for the baby and stop having to call it "it" or "the baby". There are also a lot of things that we are going to have to order over the internet so we would like to be able to start doing that. Please keep your fingers crossed for us an hope that this baby is not like MacKenzie. When we tried to find out what she was she was her stubborn self and we were not able to find out until the day she was born. I will update you when we find out.
