Baby Room and Birthing Class

First thing is first...we finally worked on the baby room this weekend! Woop woop! Check out the beginning of the transformation from regular bedroom to baby room [ PHOTO ALBUM ]. It is going to be a football field with blue sky. We hope.

So that was Saturday...today, it was off to birthing class at the hospital! I was personally dreading 3.5 hours of "HEE HEE HEE WHOOO", but when you're a dork with a dork wife, its a pretty funny class. I had to finally stop making comments to Holly under my breath cause she ruined it by laughing too loud and getting people's attention. Then we started the breathing techniques...still funny, but we were getting through it. Until teach told us to face each other. Very bad idea. We basically spent the whole time hunched over trying not to laugh out loud. Finally teach said, "laughter is very good," and we lost it. So did a couple other couples, so we weren't the only ones. Plus teach said it was good, so I think we got an A+.

Another birthing class next monday night. I can't wait!!

6th Month Sonogram

Yesterday Holly had another sonogram. The boys are looking great. They are 1lb. 4oz. now and were very active during the sonogram punchin' and kickin' each other. Made it hard for the sono-lady to get some good shots, but she got all the measurements she needed and got us 6 pics. Here is the photo album with all 6 pics, the last one is in 3-D. It isn't very clear, but she said next month when they are bigger, we should be able to get a good 3-D view.

Holly started week 23 today! Here is the low down on where she is at according to BabyCenter.com:
Turn on the radio and sway to the music. With their sense of movement well developed by now, your babies can feel you dance. And now that they are more than 11 inches long and weigh just over a pound (about as much as a large mango), you may be able to see them squirm underneath your clothes. Blood vessels in their lungs are developing to prepare for breathing, and the sounds that your babies' increasingly keen ears pick up are preparing them for entry into the outside world. Loud noises that become familiar now — such as your dog barking or the roar of the vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze them when they hear them outside the womb.


Oh, and we can already see their movement on Holly's belly! Especially the kicks and karate chops. Her stomach will jump and we see a tiny little bump stretch out her skin. Her belly is getting big and it is tight! There is hardly any room in there for those guys.

T-Bone's NFL Picks for Week 6

T-Bone had pretty good week 5 and got 8 out of 14 correct. He was one of the few to pick the Dolphins over the Chargers last week. T-Bone picked the Ravens over the Colts this week and he REALLY likes the Packers over the Seahawks.

We mixed up a little this week and changed the format. T-Bone has to defend the endzone. If the offense gets the ball in the endzone, thats a pick for the Underdog team (as ranked by Yahoo!). If T-Bone makes a goal line stand and keeps the ball out of the endzone, the Favored team gets the pick. Enjoy.
