Lynn's Lines - Mr. Peeps Comes to Town...

Mr. Peeps came to our home again...this year it was determined that Lynn was nice, and Tricia wasn't (it's my post, I can say what I want).

Here are some shots of him watching us...can you find him?

Family Baby Shower - Thanksgiving

Since all of the family on Lynn's side was together for Thanksgiving, they threw me a baby shower earlier than most baby showers probably happen. My friend who is the etiquette queen informed me that I needed to post pictures of some of the things I got, including the crib, even though its sheets haven't arrived, because that is what pregnant women do - they post pictures of empty cribs, nurseries, etc., in anticipation of the coming of the baby. So here you go....


The is all the stuff. Lynn's brother gave us their old crib.I thought this was funny because it looks like I'm going to cry.
This is a good "pregnant" shot.

Lynn's Lines - Happy Thanksgiving

I'm thankful for many things...here are a few:

1. A healthy wife
2. A good job
3. Family and friends
4. The gospel of Jesus Christ

Wanted to share this with everyone - from Mormon Messages:



Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Dogs and Babies

Here is something that I am really looking forward to... the dogs meeting the baby. These are precious.

Some Humor

I was going to post about how I've been feeling lately, so I tried to find some pictures that related. I ended up finding a bunch of humorous comics that relate to the pregnancy and a little bit of how I have been feeling. Mostly they're just funny. Enjoy.

GETTING PREGNANT








BEING PREGNANT

NAMING THE BABY

Lynn's Lines - A Kickin' Good Time!

I apologize, but you'll probably get a heavy dose of baby stuff over the next few years...

This morning Tricia called me into where she was sitting to feel her tummy...the baby was supposedly kicking. I reluctantly assumed the position, kneeling by her side with my hand on the belly. I rolled my eyes, because every other time I've done this little routine nothing has happened. This time was different - to my shocking surprise the little tiger kicked!! It was awesome!!

On a side note: Tricia seems to be doing a little better. She had a few weeks of good breathing, but now the little guy is pushing on her lungs making it tough to breath again. She smiles and laughs from time to time, which is good - only down side is that I have to make a fool out of myself to get her to do it. She hates it when I cook food (smells still bug her), so if you want to invite me over for dinner I'd gladly accept :)

Lynn's Lines - It's a BOY

Well, it's official - we're having a boy!

Tricia is now 21 weeks and 3 days pregnant - the longest 5 months of my life (can't imagine what it's been like for her). Please notice the 'boy part.'



Given all our difficulties up to this point it was nice to hear the Dr. give us the good news that our baby is healthy and growing nicely. He's going to be a handsome little devil...check it out (here's his profile)!

Although we are elated (can't quite seem to stop smiling) we are acutely aware of others that are dealing with infertility. We will continue to keep you in our prayers - thank you everyone that has kept us in their prayers!
