Super Heroes, Trucks, and Football!

For those of you who would have guessed we would have something small and wrapped in PINK coming our way in January you were wrong! I remain outnumbered! Baby #2 is a boy!:) I am nervous and relieved! Austin has my mind set in "boy mode" so this is a relief! I'm nervous because..........My #1 boy (for those of you don't know him) is WILD!:) He is so handsome, brilliant, witty, charming, fun and WILD! I can hardley keep up with him! How am I going to do it with TWO little boys?!?
We are all super excited for this little guy! Travis had the BIGGEST smile spread across his face when the technician announced it was DEFINITELY:) a little boy! Austin and Travis are so close and have such a great relationship. They have so much fun together! I know that BIG smile was knowing that they were adding another BOY to their little pack! Even though I pride myself in being able to keep up with all the "outdoor boy stuff", there are just somethings that are meant for a dad and his sons to share. I've watched it with Travis and Austin and I'm sure it will be the same with this little guy!
Travis left for Qatar a little over a month ago and will return in November. WE MISS HIM TERRIBLY! I wish he could be hear for all the new and fun developments (like the baby kicking!) I also wish he would be here to watch me progressively get bigger instead of showing up when I'm in the 3rd trimester!!!:) Oh well, he'll have to watch the changes through SKYPE (my new favorite invention!)
We are just a couple days short of the 24 week mark! We will have to deliver AT LEAST a week early because I am scheduled to have a c-section. NO WE HAVE NOT SETTLED ON A NAME! :) We probably wont for a while. Travis has come up with some nicknames to irritate me.........so I thought it was only fair to teach AUSTIN one of my own!:) If you ask Austin what the name of his new baby brother is, without hesitation he will say EDWARD (Vampire from Trav's least and my most favorite series!) I had him say it for Trav on SKYPE........I know this is mean, but I got so much joy from the absolute look of SHOCK on his face!:) I really do love that Travis and I both have the same twisted sense of humor and can appreicate this quality in one another!
WE LOVE YOU TRAV/DAD!
