It's a girl!!

I was going to post one of the ultrasound pictures, but I'm not exaggerating when I say that you can't make out a single thing in the picture. But from the video in person we could see the iris' of her eyes, her face, her spine, her beating heart and little hands and feet. It was truly an amazing experience. Right now she weighs about 10 ounzes and her head is about 1 1/2 inches wide. She is due November 1st, and the doctor hasn't been wrong about the sex in over 20 years.

Joni and I were a bit surprised to be honest as we both thought it would be a boy, but this past week we've both had dreams about having a girl so it kind of threw us for a loop. So there you have it, I've always wanted a little girl that looks just like Joni, so as long as she doesn't come out with a giant dome and a receding hairline we'll keep her.

This past Friday and Saturday we met Joel and Erin up at Lake Placid. It was only four hours away so we kind of invited ourselves when they told us they would be there, so thanks for letting us crash your party guys. Lake Placid is a cool place, it reminds me a lot of the typical mountain resort town with old buildings and big expensive houses. It was also the host city to the 1932 and 1980 winter Olympics. We walked around and saw the sights, and one of the highlights was sneaking into the hockey arena where the "Miracle on Ice" occurred. I say sneaked in because everything to see costs money there, but for some reason the arena didn't cost us anything.

This was where we stayed, the Golden Arrow resort on Mirror Lake.

We took a row boat out on the lake...

And took some good naps...overall it was just a fun, relaxing weekend. We wanted so bad to cross Vermont off our our list of states to vistit since it was only 30 min away, but we never got there. We still have a few months left here so we'll see.
