3 Men & a Mom

Happy Birthday to Erik (well, yesterday)!!!! We had Jack's favorite babysitter come over last night so Erik and I could go out to dinner and celebrate. He chose to go to Kotta Sushi Lounge which sounds like a bad idea considering the baby in my tummy but on the contraire...it was a great idea! Obviously no sashimi for me but it wasn't hard to find rolls that are either steamed or fully cooked in some way and the extra Omega 3's are always good:) Kotta is by far the BEST sushi we've had.

We will continue to celebrate through the weekend as we have our church's Fall Festival tomorrow and Jack is the firefighter on duty...after that we will head down to Waco just in time for our little firefighter to help manage the bonfire at Baylor Homecoming. Saturday we'll try and do the Chi Omega breakfast, parade, and at least part of the game until it gets unBEARable:) We will tivo the UT/Tech game and try and get home by the early evening to cheer on Mack Brown and the #1 Horns!!!!!

Busy weekend for the Olson's. Hope yall have a good one!

Since we had both sides of our family in town for Jack's birthday weekend we decided to let our families know that we are expecting baby #2 while they were all here to celebrate with us! Baby #2 is due in late April which makes me 13 weeks right now. We had our 12 week perinatology screen this past week and we took a good long look at our growing baby and everything measured healthy and normal. Dr. A thought it looked like another boy but we'll confirm in a few more weeks as our regular OB was quick to remind us of our experience with thinking Jack was a girl for 4 weeks! So far I've been feeling great with the exception of 1 experience with nausea. I wanted to include a few pics of our little man during the Texas/OU weekend and it's clear where our loyalties lie on Saturdays!!!!! HOOK EM HORNS!!!

Jack's hair was getting a little unruly and his hair is not one bit curly so as it got longer it looked pretty unkept. We decided to take him to a this fun little place for kids to get his hair cut and he did much better than we thought he'd do. Here are some pictures of the event!
