Meet Baby Google!

It's official! Maggie will have a new cousin in the Spring! Sarah and Bobby found out about 3 weeks ago that they are pregnant and we are so very excited! This picture is actually from the first ultrasound last Monday and then today was ultrasound #2. You wouldn't believe how much "Google" has grown in only one week. If you check out Sarah's blog tonight, I'm sure she'll have the pictures up. He/She already has a ton of nicknames:

1. Baby Google
2. Google Rettew
3. Mr. Amoeba
4. the Zygote
and
5. Ziggy the Zygote

This family definitely isn't lacking on creativity in the naming category. As long as they don't stick with him after his world debut. Then we may have a problem. All terms with "google" were coined by the soon-to-be proud Uncle Tom and all others were coined, with love, by Bobby and Sarah. There will be another ultrasound in 2 weeks on the day before Maggie turns 1. She will 8 weeks then and that's the same age Maggie was in her first ultrasound (where she did a little dance for us and was nicknamed "Wild Thing"). Yay for Google! Yay for Sarah! Yay for Bobby! Yay for a new addition to our really (and pretty screwed-up) family! I don't think that poor little guy knows what he's getting into (or she).

Oh - and cute story really quick...
After the ultrasound was over today and the screen was frozen on Google's picture, I took Maggie up to it and said, "Look, Maggie. It's your baby cousin!" She reached out, pointed, and then started waving at the picture on the screen. So sweet.

The Koo Koo Ice Cream Depot

Recently, Sarah, Sue, me, and the Mag took a little Girls trip downtown to eat The Koo Koo Ice Cream Depot (http://www.kookooicecreamdepot.com/). It is the cutest little ice cream shop and really feels like the "old-timey" real thing. They've used all train decor because the owner's son (when he was little) used to say "Koo Koo" instead of "Choo Choo" for a train whistle. So, there's a little history if you didn't already know. We had fun, though - just girls! Maggie was pretty amazed, however, by this couple that came in. You could tell that they were probably on their first date - nervous laughter, stupid jokes, the works, etc. And I think Maggie really added a lot to their ice cream experience because the last picture shows what she did pretty much the entire time they were there. She actually cried when they left. I don't know why she found them so entertaining...

But, we had a fun and Sue pretty much stole my camera and was the photographer of the night. I'm so glad we live in a little city like Anderson. If feels relatively big until you go somewhere that is truly big and come back home. After we got home from Vegas recently, Anderson felt like a "village" and I loved it. Never want to live anywhere else!
