Dirk Novitzki

Kobe had the wonderful opportunity to meet Dirk Novitzki last night at the timberwolves game. He plays for the Dallas Mavericks, and is an old friend of our neighbor who used to play with him in the european league. Thank you so much Kyle, the boys had a wonderful time.

Thank You

Just a quick thank you to my family for "showering" me with pink items for our little girl. An extra special thank you to aunt lynn and my cousin rhonda for throwing the shower. It is so nice to have some new items for her. We are so blessed.

(btw brennan had a really hard time understanding the shower concept, he thought we were going to all take a shower)

baby girl update

Face Profile

Baby girl LIPS

Our ultrasound went well today - everything is measuring normal, she is measuring 8 days ahead of schedule, so that puts her in about the 60th percentile (but they won't change your due date). I am measuring on the high end of the amniotic fluid, but not in a range where they are concerned. Of course they cannot rule out down syndrome, but everything is looking good and normal, so I think we can relax. Thank you for all your prayers, now let's just hope this baby isn't a giant - she is measuring at almost 6 lb already!!!

Daddy Day

Yesterday was daddy day for brennan's preschool - troy was devestated when he realized his press conference he lined up at the state capital was on the same day. Luckily our prayers were answered, and troy was able to make it to the last half of daddy day. Brennan was just giddy as we watched troy running up the sidewalk of the church, brennan told Kobe all about how daddy's tie was flapping in the wind!

They had a wonderful time making volcanoes, doing the "bop till you drop", and brennan pointed out and named every one of his classmates. Here is the daddy survey they took and gave to us:

Daddy's name: Troy

Favorite thing to do: read the paper

Favorite food: salad

Age: 8, I think

My dad is as strong as: a Lion

I love my daddy because: he wrestles with me

Baby Bump??

(kobe took this pic)

Okay, so it's a little more than a baby bump - it's out of control huge!! Is this what girls do to you?? Seriously, though if you'd say a little prayer, we're having another ultrasound friday to make sure everything is still okay, and there's not a specific reason I'm measuring 2 weeks bigger. Thank you for your prayers.

Beach Day

Brennan had Beach Day at school on thursday (isn't my little beach bumm adorable?)- thank goodness it was 50 degrees this year unlike 5 degrees last year for Kobe! It was so cute to see all of them in their beachwear!!

Kobe's february

Inside out day!

Kobe and McKayla at the play.

Wow, what a month!! Kobe had dress up days for homecoming week including inside/backward day, superhero day, cartoon character day. I was honored to help out with his valentines day party on monday, and go on his field trip to the children's theatre on tuesday (thanks to my wonderful friends for watching brennan). Wow, Kobe has the life (so do I, let's be honest)!! :)
