Baby!

 
 
YAH! We're having another baby!
 
We couldn't help but to be a little nervous after our miscarriage last summer and then it taking a year to get pregnant after that, but now that we've heard the heartbeat and had an ultrasound done, we are less worried and couldn't be more excited.  
 
I was feeling pretty nauseous and sick for a couple weeks, but I'm feeling pretty good now. My belly is already starting to stick out there and it won't be long until I have to pull my maternity clothes out.
 
We can't wait to find out if it's a boy or a girl so we can start getting the nursery prepared and everything else. We are so excited!

Beach, 4th of July, Camping

I can't believe it's been a month since I've last posted. Yikes! We've been way too busy!

Here's what has been happening in our neck of the woods:

June 26th-July 3rd we were at the beach in Lincoln City, OR. We did a lot of stuff and had a lot of fun. There's a ton of pictures! You can enlarge the pictures by clicking on them.

We came home in time to celebrate the 4th of July. Cooper really liked watching the fireworks along the river. Every now and then he'd say, "That one's Cooper's!" and he was sad when they were done. He kept saying, "Fireworks are sleeping?!"

I only worked 2 and a half days in the last 2 weeks and it was really nice being home with Cooper so much. This last weekend we headed for the mountains to go camping with my sister and her family. There seems to be a trend with our camping trips... they always start off with something bad happening. This time we were about a mile away from our campsite and poor Cooper starting choking on a graham cracker. He choked so bad that he threw up, a lot. It was really hard to get sticky peanut butter and jelly mixed with red Kool-Aid and graham cracker throw up out of his car seat. We ended up taking the whole seat out and washing in the river the best we could, but it still smelled all weekend. Yuck! Other than that, we had a great time. 

We plan to lay low and relax this weekend, and then next weekend we are off to CA. We are so excited for Cooper's first airplane ride and we can't wait to see everyone!
