baby check -in and cousin's camp 2009

i can't believe it already snuck up on us again, but it's summer, and that means cousin's camp with all my nephews and nieces here in big d!  as most of you friends know, my parents get both of my brothers' kids together for a "camp" of sorts every summer.  so yesterday they brought all seven kiddos over and jay and i threw them the annual b-day party courtesy of us.  we started with a museum trip in the morning to the nasher, pizza at campisi's, birthday cake at our house, and then a trip to play laser tag, miniature golf, bumper boats, and anything else we could find to play and/or ride.  we had a great time...and i think the kids did, too!!

23 week old link!

and last week we had our 23 week check-in on link!  he is so active (trust me, i feel it - and this little man is always moving!), it was just amazing to actually see him being playing around in there.  this was by far the most change we have seen thus far - he is really starting to grow fast and look like a little baby boy, kicking his legs, holding his feet, and staying very, very busy in there.  anyway, everything is looking great and we are totally on schedule for september 30, weighing in at 1.3 pounds as of last wednesday.  i am feeling great, lots of energy and just happy, happy to have a healthy baby growing and getting ready for good times with all of us!!  

as soon as she stuck the wand on my belly, he plunked his foot up in camera view, hahaha...so here is a shot of the bottom of his foot.  he was just letting us know he is fully aware of what is going on out here.  how cute is that little tiny foot??
