- I am now officially in my third trimester! Hooray! Gavin is kicking up a storm, usually at night, and today Stephen and I actually saw him nearly punch through my belly...he's got some spunk! I can't believe our little man will be here in a few short months. My goal this week is to wash all of his cutie pie clothes and bedding. We chose his coming-home outfits this week -- one newborn size and one 0-3 months size, just so we're prepared either way. I LOVE both outfits, and their matching hats (of course). We're signing up for the hospital tour and birthing classes soon, so it's all becoming very, VERY real and exciting!
- My old Macbook Pro burnt through the video card this week and will no longer turn on, so we did some research and ended up buying another Apple yesterday! I looked at a bunch of PC laptops, Dells and Sonys mostly, but I really preferred the Mac operating system and had grown used to how everything on an Apple worked...so I'm writing this blog entry from my sparkly new computer! I can't figure out how to download Microsoft Office yet, and I can't do the data transfer from my old computer until I get Office, so right now my computer is just good for Internet, but it's a start. I'm looking forward to having my photos and music again.
- We took Gavin to his very first (in-utero) football game last night! I love preseason games, in part because everyone is still really excited for the season and in part because the night games have such nice weather. It was beautiful and breezy and, maybe more importantly, the Bengals actually played well! We're planning to go to the final preseason game against the Colts next week, and hopefully one or two games at the beginning of the season (the Colts come back October 16) -- then I'll probably be done for the year. Stephen will most likely catch a few games after the baby arrives, but Gavin and I will watch at home in our Bengals gear (because, trust me, G has lots of Bengals gear already). We are already excited to take him to Paul Brown Stadium next fall. There was a little boy sitting in front of us last night, probably four- or five-years old, and you could literally see Stephen envisioning himself in the stands with our son. It was a great, great night. :)
- September is shaping up to be a busy month! We have a few fun appointments (including a 3D/4D ultrasound), I have a work shower and a couples shower towards the end of the month, Mindy has her shower, my mom celebrates her birthday, and FALL BEGINS! We are approaching my favorite time of year and I am slowly but surely getting more emotional (in a good way) about all the changes about to take place.
