All moved in...

Hello!! We finally have the internet working in the house! It took 4 French speaking Belgian guys 3 hours, but we have internet, and I couldn't be happier lol. So here is what's new with us...



BABY NEWS

I went to the doctorabout a week ago, and met with my doctor's assistant. First of all let me tell you that Belgian hospitals do not have hospital gowns. They certainly do not have the same level of modesty as they do in the states. So I'm in the room and she tells me to take my pants off, and doesn't five me anything to put on...So I'm just laying on the table, half naked getting an ultrasound, it was quite interesting. She poked around with the ultrasound for a while and we got to hear the heartbeat, and then we found out we're having a girl! We're naming her DeLois Kay. For those of you who don't know, DeLois was my grandma's name and it is my middle name. Kay is my mom's middle name, so she will have lots of family history in her name. Mat is a little sad that he isn't having a son yet, but we can't wait to have a daughter! Breanna is very excited to have a little sister, she told me that she is going to share her barbies with DeLois, as long as she doesn't chew on them lol. It's nice knowing what we're having, shopping is so much more fun now! We registered on Walmart.com and Target.com, but we have to get the bigger stuff here, because they won't ship to APO boxes. So Mat and I are planning a trip to Rammstein, Germany, they have a really big PX there and we can shop for cribs and take them home from there. Its about a 3 hour drive, and it should be a fun trip. I have another doctors appointment on the 31st with my actual doctor, and then I have to schedule a tour of the labor and deliver area next month, and I'm looking forward to all that.
we are pretty much all moved in to our house, its just nice to have all of our things back finally. Those hotel beds were really getting to me. I think thats really all the news I've got right now. and I will update more often now that i can actually get online. Love you all!
