Bellies and Bathtime

OK so here's my 17wk belly picture. I noticed this time I bought a lot of pink and girly clothes. With Tristan I bought a lot of blues and greens. Not on purpose! I didn't notice until I got home. I just wanted pink, and I normally HATE pink. People who know me well know how much I usually despise pink. I'm wearing 2 shirts because I was heading out to see Josh play soccer and it was cold out.

Here are my boys during bathtime. I took a video, which I will not post online for all the world to see... cuz they're naked. But, I'll describe the cuteness :) Tristan will copy everything Noah does in the tub. Their favorite thing to do right now is kick their feet to splash around and make waves.

Awww, look at your belly! You look great and once again extremely in shape for a pregnant lady!

I love the last picture of Josh holding Tristan, so cute! I am sure they have lots of fun at bath time. I always end up soaked after bath time, but that means they had lots of fun! :) I can't believe you are almost 1/2 way done with your pregnancy already! I bet you are buying pink because you are sensing girl vibes from your belly! :D

Are you hiding a volleyball. You look great. I love checking out your blog. The pictures are great. I'm trying to decide if I should put up decorations or not. I think I have the Pre-CHristmas blaas. I need a couple of rug rats running around to get me in the mood.

Very cute! I like the preggie pics. I think its a girl, she is much lower than noah, that is for sure. I remember he was pretty high up. Can't say I really know with Tristan. So what will you name her? Amalia is a nice name. ;)~

The pics of the boys in the bathtub are GREAT! They are so much like ones I took of the Josh & Logan at that age.

After getting caught up reading your blog notes, I want to make sure you know how much we appreciate you making the trip to Kansas for Christmas. I know this time of year can be stressful - but PLEASE do not fret about gifts. IT'S ALL ABOUT SPENDING TIME WITH THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE... AND WE LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! Let me know what I can do to make this time easier for you!

Hugs and more hugs to you all.

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...

Germany

Noah and I are having a great time out in Germany with Josh. The house we're sharing is amazing and the people are also amazing. The only thing we don't have is our own kitchen, but like I said, the people who live here (Josh's friends) are amazing so it's not even an issue. I've been cooking for everyone to try to thank them in some way. We haven't been to many places yet. It's hard to go anywhere with a baby who has a naptime and a husband who has a job. However!! We managed to make it out to Heidelberg to see the castle. It was awesome. the walk up to the castle mmmm castle Heidelberg down below Christmas is huge here. They've even got Christmas markets out in the parking lot in front of WalMart. We've been to Luisenplatz a few times in downtown Darmstadt to visit all the Christmas shops they have set up. It's like a Christmas flea market. Thus far all I've blown money on is candy... mmmm German candy is so delicious. It's...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...
