baby update

A few weeks ago we had our big ultrasound apt, and then on Monday we had a regular checkup. They both went great, our little guy is right on track to where he needs to be. We got a ton more pictures and a dvd. It makes me a little sad to think that we aren't going to have any more ultrasounds. The next time we see him will be in December........unless I cave and we take a trip to fetal fotos.

I am still feeling really good, I feel like I am starting to get a little bit of a waddle. My tummy has grown quite a bit over the last 3 weeks, maybe I will post a side view here shortly. We still can't decide on a name, we do like the same ones, but actually choosing is so hard. We have added a few more to the list so we are making some progress. At the begining of the month I felt and saw him kick for the first time! Its my favorite thing, he is on a little schedule, each night around 9 I lay on my back and he starts kicking and punching away.

We have the crib, changing table, bassinett, and recliner for the nursery. So this Saturday we are going to start the construction. Updates will follow!

Sad Week

It has been a sad week for the Maughan family. Last Friday Bryce's uncle Ron, and his cousins Jed and Jordan were killed in a plane crash. They were taking a fishing trip to Washington and never made it there. The plane went down a few miles past the Idaho border in Oregon. Ron left a wife and 4 daughters and numerous grandchildren, Jed was newly engaged and Jordan who is only 26 left behind a beautiful wife Shelley and 3 little kids ages 4, 2 and 3 months. A donation account has been set up for Shelley and a trust fund has been set up for the kids.

Please donate. For information and updates from the family go to http://www.wherearethemingos.blogspot.com/
