Assateague Island Camping

Andrew, Steve's little brother came to visit us at the beginning of June. He graduated high school and we celebrated by taking a trip to the coast when he was here. We started out camping for 3 days at Assateague Island. It was pretty cool. We saw tons of wild horses and other wild life. We got to camp in the white sand and have campfires right next to the ocean in the evening. There was a little drawback, Mosquitoes Galore! I learned that mosquitoes are the worst after rain and with high temperatures, both of which were present a couple of days before we arrived. Bennett has at least 40 bites! So when you see him and you wonder if he has chicken pox, don't fret, he doesn't! Other than that what a wonderful time.

Its Official - We're Expecting!

It's Official we are expecting a new addition to our family! We are going to have a new baby this Christmas time. I am due December 26th. Here is a picture of our 8 week visit. (Like you can see anything!)

Bennett swears its a girl, I tell him that it may be a brother. His reply is simple, "Nope, its my girl."

We are very excited and I am feeling good - well now I am, 13 weeks later! We are moving to a 3 bedroom apartment at student housing at the Medical Center. That should be great fun, we will be surrounded by lots of friends and even better - a playground! We will be without a dishwasher....I am looking into that one! I think I may invest in a stand alone one that you run through your sink. I'm feeling good about that investment!
