We're Back!!

I'm sure many of you noticed our somewhat abrupt absence. As things would have it, it seems as though someone (something) hacked into our joint email account, the one we use to run this blog. Google noticed a problem and shut down our account. After a bit of confusion, we managed to get it back and everything should hopefully be back to normal. And hopefully no one will get anymore Viagra emails.

So catching up! Colin's schedule has changed and he is now on a team without anyone else from our training class. He likes the new team, though. So it's all good. He's now working 4 days a week, which means a longer day, but 3 days at home which is awesome! He's really, really enjoying teaching robotics at LPS. Summer school is taking a 2 week break and all Colin can say is, "I guess, at least I don't have to get up at 7am." I'm embracing life as a housewife again. :) I've been researching baby products day and night. Safety, price, ecological ramifications, length of use, etc., etc., etc.! My precious Gunter (the laptop I've had for 5 years) has finally gotten to the point where we can no longer afford to fix him, which has been a somewhat traumatic experience for me. (Traumatic may be a bit of an exaggeration.) Through Colin's ability to "work" the Radio Shack system, we now have a new laptop. I grudgingly admit that it is better than Gunter.

We've been enjoying the summer by spending a decent amount of time at the pool. We've also gone hiking & grilling a few times at one of the local state parks. We even made it out to the thoroughbred race once. And in baby news, we find out if it is a boy or girl on Thursday!! Many people think that you can tell boy or girl based on how the bump looks. So what do you guys think? Boy or girl? (24 weeks)
