Fun With My Family

Beginning of 19 weeks

Here I am, counting down until my appointment with nothing to do. I'm too excited to sleep anymore, so I decided to publish this post that I started working on a few days ago and add my anxieties about discovering the sex of the wiggler. Also, I thought it was time for a real baby bump picture! (The last one was real, but I'll admit it ws barely noticeable!). Anyway, enjoy!

So this last weekend we celebrated my sister's birthday (who just turned 25 last Wednesday!) by going to 7 Peaks! It was so fun to have my family there as well as Phil's sisters and a couple of his friends, plus it was just fun to go out and do something that I haven't done in a long time! (Honestly, I haven't been swimming at a water park for years!) Unfortunately, me being aweful at remembering to take pictures, I didn't remember until a lot of us were tired out, so most of the pictures are of us sitting around warming ourselves in the sun (except my mom, who was trying to protect her sunburn) :)

This is me and Jon floating around in the lazy river. The slides made me sick and dizzy, so I spent a lot of the day here, and Jon went on so many slides that he needed to relax as well. (Notice me cleverly hide my baby bump with Jon's leg. Bwa ha ha!)

Jeffrey and my Mom. (I made Jeffrey sit like that so he didn't cover up my mom)

Baby Brother Brian (he says that he always poses like this for pictures, what a goof) :)

This is the "turkey" I gave Brian - hard to see here, but it was really good! (For those who don't know what a turkey is, you yell out "Turkey!" and slap somone's skin with your hand and leave a handprint - it's pretty funny to do to little brothers).

Birthday girl! (I think she was trying to do a scary kung-fu pose, but started laughing)

Julie's husband Phil (I tried to get him doing a funny face, but it broke into a normal-ish smile right when I took the picture. Darn) :)

My man - (he hates pictures and always smiles as goofy as he can) He was so nice to me the whole time, he did make me go on one slide but then let me relax the rest of the day and still made sure that he came back to check on me or relax with me for a bit. He was very sweet. :)

Me and Jon - exhausted after all of our fun in the sun. (Ignore my double chins)

Overall it was really really fun. We played in the water all day, and then I got really tired and sick and Jon and I had to bail around 6:30 or so (yeah, we were ONLY there for 6 hours, no big deal). :) Even with sunscreen though, I ended up getting burned all over! I'm just glad I wasn't one of the pregnant girls who wore the tiny binkini's and opted instead for a long tankini, because I don't think a giant sunburned belly sounds fun at all! :)

Alright, well I'm off to find out what my baby is now. Just as an update - the poll on the side of my blog shows that more people think we will have a boy (14:13), but word of mouth votes including people at work and all of the texts I got last night say we will have a girl (17:13), so it will be fun to see who's right. I just can't wait to stop calling my wiggler "it"! Wish us luck and cross your fingers that it's legs aren't crossed!
