Memorial Day Weekend with Mom

We enjoyed the long Memorial Day weekend with Corrie’s mother visiting.  She’s a busy bee with work, and being a student, so its sometimes rare that she gets to come up for a visit.  As part of her birthday and mothers day present, we flew her up to Houston to visit.  

On Saturday during the visit Corrie and her mom went shopping for some maternity clothes, always a joy.  We also embarked upon BabiesRus for the first time.  Wow, completely overwhelming, but very fun.  On Sunday we went to church, and then later that evening met up with Johns parents for dinner at the Cheesecake Factory.  Yum!  Monday was spent doing some random errands, and then back to the airport to drop mom off, and we actually got her there on time!  As opposed to last years visit when we didn’t get her to the airport on time and missed her flight.  All in all it was a great weekend hanging out with family.  

FYI:  Corrie is 22 weeks pregnant in this picture.  

We're having a...

It’s a boy!  Corrie had a sonogram on Friday and we are having baby boy.  At first we thought we might not get to find out the gender because the lab tech said it may be too soon.   But as soon as she looked at the baby she said, “Oh, I know what it is.”  Apparently our little man was in a good position to give away his gender.  Thanks bud.  

Happy Birthday Corrie

Today Corrie turned 28! A birthday in the middle of the week means a celebration the weekend before and the weekend after.  The weekend before we traveled to Victoria to celebrate, and the weekend after Corrie’s mom and grandma came up for a visit.   

John and Corrie celebrated with dinner and a movie.  We had yummy sushi and then went and saw a movie at the theatre, a rare treat indeed.
