Oh ya! It's a boy!

I have been so busy cookin up this bun in the oven, that I haven't saved any time for blogging.  Isn't he the cutest? I have been enjoying the little kicks and flips he's doing!  Whenever he starts kicking, I always glance down at my belly to see if I can see the movements. I'm usually not fast enough, but yesterday at work it happened. I was in my office, no customers in the branch, just my employees.  All of the sudden our little buddy starts moving. I look down, and see him taking kicks and punches to both sides of my belly.  It was so awesome to see that I start laughing.  And not just giggling a little bit. But pretty much a hysterical cackle.  Was I embarrassed? Not even a little bit. My teller asked if I was ok, and I jumped up and told her, now through giggles, what happened.  It was amazing. It just doesn't get old.

So, as mentioned, we are having a boy! It's so funny to me when people ask if we have names. It's always followed up with another questions... "oh are you telling people?" Yes we have a name. And yes we are sharing. Because we'll be naming him Macfarlane Charles no matter what. We'll call him Mac.  Macfarlane is Collin's mom's maiden name. And Charles is one of Collin's nicknames growing up. His dad called him Charles. Chuck. Charlie. And he didn't like the idea of having Collin as Mac's middle name. I think it's perfect.  He's going to be perfect.

Baby is now just over 29 weeks. It's crazy to me that we only have 10ish weeks left, then we'll have a little buddy. I can't wait. For the first time, I'm actually feeling big.  Like I need to stop getting so big.  But, as my mom reminds me, that means the little guy is healthy. Someone will need to remind me of that in 8 weeks or so when I'm as big as a house, ready to pop.

 We went to Colorado a few weeks ago, and had a fabulous time.  We did everything imaginable. Took family pictures. Went to a Rockies game. Went to Water World. Hit up the lake. Twice. Had Woodys. And Heaven Dragon. Collin went Golfing. And Played basketball. Had my 10 year reunions (yes, that makes me feel and sound old). Got mani/pedis. Celebrated my Mom's bday. At La Loma. Got fabric for Mac's quilt. And the list goes on and on.  We had such a wonderful time. Luckily, we'll get to go out again in September for a Baby Mac celebration.  SO excited.
