We have sent out emails for the baby registry for all of you and have included it here as well. http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/baby/121OMDMAO1K7A If that does not work you can just go to Amazon and go to the baby registry section and search for either one of our names and it will take you to our list.

We will write more after Wednesday appointment i promise. And we hope to have some new baby pics to show also. so take care. Love and miss you all.

good news and bad news

So no new picture. will try to get one on later tonight. The good news i spoke of is that we have found out where we are headed after Italy 14 months from now. The bad news is not the base itself its just that its distance away from both familys. We are headed to Mcchord Air Force Base in Washington State. Its about 45 minutes south of Seattle. I know some of you knew that if she re enlisted that she got a BOP (Base of preferance) Well we did sort of. Let me explaine the procedure. You submit a list of 8 bases that you would like. We picked scott in Illinois and then the two in northern California and the two in colorado just cause Colorado is beautiful and is about equally between both Familys. so thats 6 then we put the one in missouri and last but not least put mcchord in washington thinking it would be cool but its last so no worries. Well we expected about a month of waiting to find out the assignment. So we submitted the paperwork last week at the end of the week sometime. And anyone who knows about the military knows this usually takes a little while well yesterday we got the news. We are headed to Mcchord. All the other bases didnt have any openings around the time we would be leaveing so there it is. We though about just extending another 2 years and not re enlisting but then she would get thrown in with everybody else returning from overseas and they get sent to montana or north dakota or places like that. So better of this way. And other than being far away from family we are really excited about it. We both love outdoors stuff and thats the place to be. Ther will be snowboarding and hiking and climbing and the sports teams in Seattle to go watch and the music scene there is awesome. And vancover BC is only 3 hours away. and all the cruises to alaska and down the west coast leave from nearby. So we are truely excited. the Only other bad thing being the weather there. rain rain rain. lol O and the fact that we know we are leaveing in 14 months. so we are well at least i am all like yeah lets go ............................ uh o yeah lets wait a year. hahaha. So Ok on to some baby news. I finaly really felt her move the other night. it was cool. And i go in a see her at work before i go to work. And yesterday she told me to shut up! get this its because she is active at that point anyways but she says lately when I talk she wont stop moving the whole time i talk. hehe. Can you say DADYS little girl. lol ok well i need to go for now. will try to get a pic up soon. miss you all and love you more. O and we are working on the baby registry thing if anyone has been wondering. so we will have that out soon. Ok so goodbye for now.

We have gotten a kitchen table preparing for are growing family. We are also looking at buying a new car since the baby wont fit to well in the Eclipse. So long fun and sporty car Hello big family SUV. We are looking at getting the big 4 door jeep wrangler. So no minivan for this stay at home dad. lol. And we finally got Wesleys tickets to come over here a week or two ago. He will be with us from the 28th of May to the 13th of august. We are hoping for a good time while he is here. And the weather here is awefull for those of you who didnt know. It has rained for about a week straight and is supposed to throughout the 10 day forcast. But we all know thise weather people and their ability to accuratly predict the weather. lol. And I am starting to get sick again! So lets hope she doesnt catch it this time. well thats about it. We have another appointment on the 30th so hopefully she will be able to give us a higher percentage on the sex before we go crazy on the girl stuff. lol. well hope to talk to you all soon. love and miss all of you.

the baby

So she had her appointment yesterday. And the Doc is 85% positive its a girl. So i guess that massage lady was wrong. Even adriana thought it was going to be a boy. So i had gotten used to thinking it was going to be a boy. So when i heard it was a little shock. I am ecstatic about it though. I just have to switch gears from thinking it is going to be a boy. The 85% is due to the fact that the cord kept getting in the way. but the baby is only supposed to be about 3 to 4 centimeters long and she is 9 centimeters. The doc said that means she should be a big girl. lol. Adriana was hopeing she would be shorter. lol Guess not. WMBA here she comes. haha well thats all for now. sorry for not posting yesterday. Mal! love you all.

guess what I heard

So a couple of days ago Adriana said she hadnt felt Bean moving for a while. So i hooked up the headphones to the Ipod and put on some Dave matthews band. She said it was to early for Bean to react. But guess what Bean started moving. Now when she is in the car on the way to and from work work she can feel it moving when she plays Jack Johnson on radio. " Thats my little bean" lol. Ok so on to what i heard. So last night we were laying in bed and I started talking to The Belly as i call it. And she said that bean started to move. So i put my ear to The belly and Guess what i heard? ........................... the Heart beat. It was so cool it totaly rocked my world. well thats about it for now. Just thought i would share that little tid bit of info. So did anybody guess right?

14 weeks

So to start off about two weeks ago we took a day trip to Milan on the train. its about and hour ride from desenzano. We spent most of the day at the duomo. The second largest church in Italy. It was amazing. I know some of you have seen the pictures online. Hoped you enjoyed. We were then planning on going to Rome the next weekend. Well on thursday i woke up thinking we were going to Rome and at lunch i got a call asking me what I thought about going to an island of the cost of italy. So that would work to so that was the plan, well for the next hour or so. So by the time I got home from work the plans had change to include our friends Nick and Lacey and that we were going to Budapest hungary. Nick had a rental car with unlimited miles and voluntered to drive so on friday afternoon we headed out. 9 hours and 3 countrys later we were there. Almost didnt get into hungary cause the rental car had a copy of the registration and they dont allow that. But guess what a border patrol agent being lazy, He let us go through anyways. So friday was a bust to see anything. The hotel set us up with a bus tour of the city with several stops through out the city that you could stop at and get off and look around and get back on the next bus an hour later. So if you saw any of those pictures online we saw alot in a short couple of hours. It was a truely amazing city. With so much history. After the tour we headed to the mall to eat at TGIF Fridays none the less. Man did we eat alot of food. i have eaten at several american reaturants outside of the states and you could always tell the dif. Well let me tell you not at this one. they even had USDA beef! We then looked around the mall and headed back to the hotel for a swim and the jacuzzi and for the girls to get massages. Well durring Adrianas massage something intersesting happened. She held her hands over her stomach for almost 5 minutes. She looked at adriana and said " your haveing a boy right?" She replied we dont know yet. then she said "well you are" can you beleive it. I was excited just like every guy is when they hear that i guess. It has slightly worn off a little though. I have been thinking about the bond between fathers and sons as opposed to fathers and daughters. the father and daughter seem to be a smoother relationship like mother and son. But honestly as long as bean comes out healthy with 10 fingers and 10 toes I will be the happiest father around. well today we went up to the Hospital for some blood and urine tests and we got to look at the delivery room and pediatrics ward. And they have the tub to have a water birth which is what she wants to do. And didyou know that you cant get the epidural with a water birth? But she wants to do it naturally. I think she is crazy but I guess thats why women get the priv to carry and birth the baby. lol. well that pretty much brings us up to date.

Some other intersesting news. You might be wondering why there is a picture of me above. well we had a deal that i wouldnt trim the hair on my chin or the top pf my head until the baby was here. I know some of you are still supprised to see hair on my head. lol but yeah they are both getting pretty long. I hope to braid the hair on my chin at some point. Yes I know mayB a little weird but hey who cares. lol

O and up comming dates.

the 23rd march. I am headed to England to play in a basketball tournament.

the 26th is the next doc appointment. We will hopefully get to find out what bean is. YES! lol

the 30th I get back from England.

So thats it for now. Again sorry for the late delay of a post. hope to talk to you all soon.
