World Tour

Whoa! I didn't disappear or go into "pregnant hiding." We have been on some adventures and I'm happy to report our traveling has ceased for now. It feels good to know I will be in town indefinitely until these children are born. Anyway, here's the update:

Me at 24 weeks. I should probably get a bigger shirt. Whatever.

We took a road trip the day after my birthday to Akron, OH to Ray & Tara's wedding. We embarked with the Butners and endured an eight hour car trip-and no one killed each other! We've actually traveled with them before to New Orleans, so we knew they were good traveling buddies. Anyway, we had a few interesting situations (the one involving bad Mexican food was particularly memorable), but all in all it was a great time.

We even went to the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame and I kissed Bruce Springsteen:















Here's the happy couple. Notice Matt's removed tie (which ended up on his head) and me trying to stay up past 10pm and clearly over it:



It all ended about a week later at the U2 concert in Atlanta. My uncle and Dad flew us in and while the trip was short, it was great. I survived flying (only slightly nervous).




I am looking forward to my baby shower next weekend. Mainly because the room is really empty and I keep getting panicky thinking I'm running out of time. I've only broken down and bought one blanket with a giant sock monkey on it. I think that's reasonable.

I also just went to the doc and am happy to report baby girl is 1lb 10 oz and baby boy is 1lb 12oz. They were also having some sort of disagreement during the ultrasound which caused girl to try feebly to defend herself from boy's foot to the face. Apparently she's got the bottom bunk and not a lot of room to avoid his maniac kicking. She should have picked the top bunk.
