What a great Valentine's Day!

We had a packed weekend. Saturday we had Parents Day at karate, and it was so hard trying to do karate at 5 months pregnant. I hurt for 2 days, even though I didn't do any of the hard stuff. Then Rob and I had date night with our friends Jennifer & Brad. We went to see Confessions of a Shopaholic. It was cute, and a great reminder that all those pretty things are very pretty but not necessary and can be such a pain. Then we had an awesome dinner at Jennifer's favorite restaurant. Sunday we had a very busy day with an outing with Jackson's friend and his family. Tons of fun. Then we drove to Bartlesville to meet friends. The kids had so much fun and I think Jackson has a crush on their daughter. It was great. Long weekend with lots of stuff. Rob was great at helping out and getting the kids to pitch in. Still working on the whole keeping the house clean plan though.

Sometimes my belly seems to be bigger and then sometimes it doesn't. The baby does not seem to move much. I do seem to feel it a lot really early in the morning. This morning was picture day at school. Jackson wore his suit and looked amazing. Caleb refused, so we compromised on a collared shirt. Maisy got some new Dora Crocs this weekend that she is in love with, they are so cute.

The baby is still in there.

Our 20 week appointment was good. The heart rate was good. No ultrasound though, which was kind of disappointing. I don't go back for another month. Maisy got her ballet recital costume. It is adorable and my favorite color. Jackson has tryouts tonight for the Karate Demonstration Team. Caleb and Maisy want to go to church. Jackson and Caleb want me to go eat lunch with them, which I really don't want to have to eat the food at the school.

So much work!

I'm back from my trip to Chicacgo and so glad to be in warmer weather. Here is the picture I could not get to post last time. I have so much work to do and not sure how I'm going to get it done. I used to get so much done after I went home and put the kids to bed. It was my quiet working time. In the office it seems like something is always going on. And now, after I get the kids in bed, I could fall asleep standing up I am so tired.

Tommorrow is my 20 week appointment. Rob and I had the debate about finding out about the baby. He still wants it to be a surprise to us, but is okay with everyone else finding out what it is. I say if it is a surprise, then it is a surprise and no one knows. He thinks he can read the ultrasound and tell what it is though without the technician telling us. The kids really want to know whether it is a boy or girl though.

My sister had a list of recomended names for us. I can't remember them all but the boy name I remember is Tristan and the girl name was Norah. So I might have to figure out how to add those to the list to vote on.
