I'm here...

Sorry for the long delay. There just hasn't been anything going on to report. I can go ahead and share the news for those who don't know that JJ is going to be a big brother. I am 11 weeks pregnant. I guess this would be a reason for the long break. I have been nauseous and tired. I dealt with nausea with JJ but not so much the tiredness. I went to the doctor Monday and he had all good reports. Baby peanut is about 5 cm long. It was very exciting to see him/her on the ultrasound. He was very active. We won't know what it is for 8 more weeks but I just call it a he. Of course, everyone asks what do you want. I'm cool with whatever. Part of me wants another boy but another part of me feels there would be regret or that I would miss out by not having a girl. Girls are just drama. Either way we just pray for a healthy baby. Needless to say, the triathlon training is off. There is no way I can do it. I have not been able to train because of my condition. I expect that things will be better in a few weeks but still it will not be enough time to get in the condition I need for the race. I just want to stay healthy and look forward to resuming regular workouts. We have had a lot of rain here lately. I welcome it compared to the 105 degree heat we had just before. We are flying to Midland, TX this weekend for one last Hoorah at Robert's grandmother's house. All of the family is meeting there to claim stuff and have one last celebration in the house. I am looking forward to seeing his family. They will not believe the changes in JJ. I think he is going through a growth spurt as he is sleeping much more and eating more. It is about time! Everything else is fine. Robert still likes his job and is excelling in his current position. I think that gets you caught up. Now that the big news is out I will keep you updated.

SO HOT!!!

I can't believe this HOT weather we are getting with the humidity to boot. I can't wait for a break! I've got pictures from camp. Make sure to check out the pic website for more if you like. You can see from the pics that the area was beautiful. It did not look like desert at all. It got up to 90 degress in the day and down to the 60's at night. There was a reunion party for our camp group last Friday. Four of the girls were not there. It is hard to get everyone together. Anyway, we are gearing up for a new year of YoungLives and will work on recruiting new girls.

My dad was here last weekend for a quick visit. There was not much to do since it was 105 outside. It was still fun to have him and he always loves seeing JJ.
