Phil's Birthday Fun!

Phil is now 30 years old!!! He was dreading it and hoping we didn't have a party, but it came and went and he survived!!! The weekend of his birthday we went up north to see his relatives from Colorado that were in town. He enjoyed a nice, quiet weekend of fishing and hanging out and thought his birthday (June 22) had passed without too much commotion. He was able to enjoy a very yummy baseball birthday cake (which wasn't as creative as the fire truck last year, but when you're away from home, you can only be so creative!!!).


(Yes, there is only a "3" candle on the cake.
I told him the "0" didn't mean anything, so it didn't need to be on the cake!)

Well, the following weekend (June 28) I suggested we go out to dinner after church and have a "date" which Phil agreed to. Little did he know it was a "date" with 12 other people! Phil was definitely surprised when we showed up at Champs and had a large table of family and friends there to greet him! He is so wise and mature now..... :)




Check out those big bellies!!

We had another doctor's appointment on Thursday and everything is going well. I'm starting to have more contractions, but am able to control them by lying down and drinking extra water. Baby is head-down at this point, but there is still plenty of time for him or her to move around! We have our tour of the Birthplace at the U of MN tomorrow, so we'll let you know how that goes! We're getting closer to meeting our new little addition every day and we can't wait!
