It's a........

GIRL!!!

More info to come soon, but baby girl Bates looks right on target!!

The Belly is Rising

So, here we are at week 17 of the pregnancy, and all is going well. Baby is starting to really make himself/herself noticed more. It's nice to feel like I'm not just endlessly sick and tired and weepy for no reason at all. We are both getting really excited. Only 3 more weeks until our level 2 ultrasound to check peanut's anatomy-make sure all is as well as I think it is. But, we all know the real reason for the excitement-I AM SICK OF GUESSING THE SEX OF THIS CHILD!!! I want to know for SURE. So, everyone cross your fingers that we'll find out......

Congrats, Big Sister Mandy!!

This morning, Amanda's step-mom Heather gave birth to a beautiful 8lb 2oz boy-Spencer Charles. This is her 3rd little brother!!! Josh is 9 (on this side-duh), Zach is 17 months, and now little Spence. What a babysitter Im getting! =) Congratulations to Eric & Heather, too! We can't wait to meet him. Everyone else can check him out at the Capps Family Blog:

Thanks Grandma Linda!!

This is Chandler Bing with his favorite Christmas present-a purple cat from Grandma Linda. He loves this thing. A little too much if anything. Let's hope this one sticks around a while! This dog is only 13" tall, but has the jaws of an alligator! Watch out Jaws!
