Some more updates

This past Friday Bennett took his first few steps. He was standing up against the couch, looking over Andrew's shoulder, and then decided to move on. Once he had taken about 4-5 steps, he seemed to realize what he was doing and slowly sat down. The next day he walked to both of us and then decided he was done. So now when he does walk, its usually because he isn't thinking about it. He tends to walk mainly on his knees, we'd never heard of that before and apparently neither has anyone else we know. Its a little frustrating, but he'll walk eventually. There's no use getting hung up over a milestone.

We've been doing well, Bennett is happy and healthy now that his cold has past. Andrew is getting closer to finals week so he's pretty busy. And I've broken my old record of not being sick while pregnant with 1 bout of morning sickness. We went to our first doctor appointment on the 15th. The new baby is happy and healthy, it was so awesome to see it moving around. Sadly we weren't given any pictures or video and hadn't thought to bring our camera along. But we'll remember when we get the next sonogram. This baby is due November 10th. I like the new doctor, he seemed as concerned as I was about not repeating my last delivery. While it wasn't too bad, it sounded like it could have been. So the doctor will compare the growth of this one to the last one and if it looks about the same, I'll have to be induced with a C-section. Better that than ripping the whole way with a too large baby! As for the gender, we are hoping for a girl this time round, but I'm sure Bennett wouldn't mind having a brother either.

Its been getting pretty hot in Boise, close to 60-70 degrees some days, but we still like to go out when its cool for the occasional picnic. There's a zoo nearby that we want to go to sometime, but we'll probably have to wait till school is out first.
