Goodbye to the red hot BMW 318 and hello to a "family car."  After 5 years with the speedy little two door BMW, it was a bit difficult to see someone else drive away with MY car!  Joey and I were able to find this '98 Volvo Cross Country within a week and it's been a comfy ride so far (with plenty of room for the baby).  In case you're wondering - it does have the backward third bench in the back.

In mid September, Joey and I met up with some family and friends at Oktoberfest in Mt. Angel, OR.

20 Week Ultrasound

At our 20 week ultrasound today the baby was wiggling and moving.  We chose not to find out if it's a girl or a boy.  Everything looked great - down to the four chambers of the heart.  Heart rate was 145 beats/min and baby weighs approx. 12 oz.  and is about 7 inches.  Joey's mom Doni came along with us for the visit and we all smiled when the baby first appeared on the monitor.  How amazing!
