Last Saturday was my baby shower, I had a lot of fun and am happy so many people could come. Everyone showed up around 1:00, we ate lunch and played a few games. Then I opened all of Natalie's gifts... she had A LOT!!! We got a lot of items for her room, I can't wait to get to San Diego and set everything up! Then we all had cake and talked for awhile.
On Tuesday I had my ultrasound. My doctor thought that Natalie might be a little big, so this was just to see how big she actually is. She weighed 2 lbs and 10 oz, perfect size! She is in the 53%. She was very active the whole time, so it was a little hard to get a clear picture of her, but we did get a few good ones. She also had the hiccups :)
Charlie was suppose to be home this past Friday, but unfortunately there were some problems with paperwork... but he will be here on Tuesday. Then, Wednesday morning we are off to San Diego! Finally!! It will be nice to have Charlie home for good!!
As far as we know Tyler is doing fine at boot camp. We received a letter from the Navy giving us some details about his boot camp, and what to expect. On the bottom of the letter there were 2 lines for "Recruit Comments"... Tyler said he was doing fine and the food was ok too. We did get his address so we have all written to him. We have not received an actual letter from him, but we are hoping to hear from him soon! It drives us nuts not knowing what he is doing, and how he is doing!!
