updates...

woah, a post with out a picture... NO FUN! maybe i can find one that you haven't seen yet!

anyways! i went for my 16 week check up and got another great report. the baby's heartrate was 153, pretty consistent with last month. so it could be a girl or it could be a boy. but guess what? only 12 more days and there will be no more guessing! :-) and it can not get here quick enough! i am soooo excited to find out. we've thrown around some more boy names but haven't agreed on anything yet. oh well. as nate reminds me, i'm not having this baby tomorrow. ha!

and trace is still surprising us with new things every day... mostly good new things. but we did find one bad habit of his. or maybe he's just sneaky! a few days ago nate took the garbage out and asked if i had thrown away some of trace's passies and his farm fridge magnets. of course i said NO! why would i do that? we found out trace is the little culprit! we've caught him throwing away his juice, hairbrush, his favorite toy guitar... what is his deal? we have been asking him to throw away trash and then when he does it we clap and yay and make a big fuss over it, which makes him clap and scream YEAH at the top of his lungs and run around like a wild man! so i guess we aren't rewarding him enough so he was trying to get our attention... too bad it earned him nothing better than a spanking :) anyways. we will have to keep an inventory of his passies (he used to have like 12) and now we know where they have disappeared to!!

his newest phrase is "hold you" and he'll reach up to me... not matter what i am doing or how full my hands are, he wants me to hold him NOW. it's just too sweet! my baby is growing up tooo fast. well we are all very excited for a 3 day weekend coming up... thank you lord for a time of rest and time spent with family and friends... i already know it will be a great weekend!!!

what do ya know... i found an adorable pic to post. and if ya'll have already seen it... oh well, enjoy it again! :)

*** new update as of 8/31/08... if we have a boy his name will be LUCAS JAMES WHITT and we will call him Lucas, not luke. just thought ya'll would like to know! **
