3rd Trimester?!?!?!

Where has the time gone? In 12 weeks or less we will be holding our beautiful Asher in our arms. We can't wait to meet him....and have a feeling that a few of you feel the same way too:) If you were wondering, he feels the same way about you! This week he is about 2 1/4 pounds and around 14.8 inches from head to toe. He is also opening and closing his eyes and has eyelashes!

We had a fun, relaxing weekend in Ohio. We left for Ohio on Thursday morning and made our first stop at Elgin High to see Allyson's dad and the new science facility that they have. Allyson's cousin Stacey and her boys Warner (4) and Quinn (8 months) also met us there so that Warner could go fishing with Allyson's dad. In reality, we caught nothing, but according to Warner we caught 7 fish and 1 stingray! That night, we headed home to eat pizza and visit with lots of family. Mark as usual was the kid magnet. At one point, Warner told Mark as only a 4 year old who can't pronounce his "r's" can..."Hey...did you know bwoccoli and cauliflower are bwothers?" I am pretty sure that none of us knew this interesting factoid, but we loved it! The rest of the night was spent laughing and catching up with Mom, Dad, Mama, Maizie, Carla, Kirk, Sally, Andy, and Megan. We love and miss you all and can't wait to see you again in a couple of short weeks.

Friday we were lazy and loved it, we slept in, hung out in our pj's, and caught up on some DVR. Friday night we headed to Polaris with Mom and Dad and met Andy and Megan for a fantasitc dinner at Cap City. Saturday, we said our goodbyes, or see you laters as we would prefer, and headed back to Indiana. We had a "Fall Fling" with our teens Saturday night, so we had much to do to get ready. The night was fun and ended with a token Mark and Allyson picture. Enjoy!

Looking forward to November and all of the world traveling that is coming with it...Nashville, back to Ohio, and Thanksgiving in Georgia!

Love and miss you!
Mark and Allyson
