your baby has finger nails

correction.. our baby has finger nails! And now it is the size of a kumquat (pretty big huh?) A lesser known fruit that we used to have growing in our backyard when I was a kid. I just remember having rotten kumquats thrown at me. I love you, Kjell.
Apparently this week our baby is swallowing fluid (sounds a little sick) and "kicking up a storm" but I won't be able to feel that for weeks to come. We've now moved on from an embryo to a fetus which I must say is very exciting. Less exciting.. still feeling gross everyday. Its mostly after I eat- for about 3 hours- which mostly means its all day :) Then, at about 11 pm its totally down hill from there. Saturday night we were bowling at 11 ($32 for the two of us to bowl two games.. a little disturbing) and it totally hit me at like 10:42. I knew it was coming and I didn't like it one little bit. In other news... I started that sentence but now "other news" is not coming to me. Oh! Nic and I almost always give each other holiday presents early. We are not the best waiters. So, whenever we buy the gifts we give them to each other! On Saturday I got Nic's gift and just couldn't wait to give it to him. I wanted to give him something for Father's day that we could use to have memories with our kids. So I got him a... T E N T! This gift really has double meaning, it means: here is a tent. And also- I WILL GO CAMPING. I am admittedly not a happy camper. I just don't see a lot of appeal in not getting a good nights sleep, feeling icky, smelly, sticky and gross, eating stuff like "chili" (never) It just isn't me. But, I never had camping memories as a child (thanks to my brother Matt who ate a lot of sand while camping as a child) so they never went ever again. That was about 25 years ago. My first camping experience was girls camp at age 12. I loved it (I am not exactly sure when the loathing started, i just know thats how i've felt for some time now) and wished that I could have gone with my family growing up. In an attempt to make awesome memories with our kids (which I will faithfully document through scrapbook, blog and any other means I can get my hands on) I decided to give in to my new Idaho roots and be a camper! Nic was way happy and that makes me the happiest wife around. Happy Father's day my love! You are going to make the best dad ever.
