Week 19, here we come!

We are getting very excited for the baby, even though we have not prepared the room or anything yet!
Last weekend we had some of the St. Pat's folks over for our annual Irish Idol party, and it was fun... for them. ;) I think we are truly ready to be parents and to enjoy friends and family on a much smaller scale. (e.g. Grilling, nice bottle of vino, outdoor movie and good conversation.)

The baby is now about 8 inches long already and weighs 7 ounces, just like a small baby doll. (According to the pregnancy website.) I definitely know it is growing in there. I often get little growing cramps and pains. I am even starting to wobble when I walk... lovely. ;)

I can't wait for Larry to be able to feel and see the baby moving... I know Blue and Chandler are tuned in and like to snuggle up close to my tummy. It is very sweet.

We have some house guests for the next couple of weeks. Dione and Jesse! Jesse is deathly ill of cats, so we have asked our good friends Natalie and John to cat sit for us.... They don't want to give Chandler back! He is such a sweet kitty! I think Blue and I will have to go over to their house for a visit because he is wondering where his cat buddy is and I think he is a little lonely.

This weeks activities:
  • Monday - Ran errands, Hair cut... (I guess that would be Joy)
  • Tuesday - Picked up recognition plaques for the Dinner on Wed.
  • Wednesday - Wearin' O the Green Dinner (fantastic! but tiring..)
  • Thursday - Cleaned house and pick up Dione and Jesse
  • Friday - Worked on Parade line up with Karin
  • Saturday - Worked on St. Pat's stuff... host brunch at our house
  • Sunday - Nursing home tour with St. Pat's

Isn't that enough?

OH yea, Larry got the bathroom sink and towel bars up! You can go potty AND wash your hands! Next, the shower!

Next Friday we get out Ultrasound! I can't WAIT!!

Love you all!

Joy & Larry

Are you going to find out and share the sex of the babyy next week? It's going to be hard to keep that a secret especially my brother Larry! Just kidding! We are very excited and hope you share. (Hint Hint)
