It's a ...

Well first of all, we found out that it's a GIRL! We are very excited for Ellie to be getting a little sister and have already assembled a long list of names to mull over the next few months. Ellie however still insists that I have a boy baby in my tummy and she has a girl baby in hers.

Brett is in the thick of his internal medicine rotation but we keep him plenty busy whenever he is home. We went to the TMEA (Temple Medical Education Alliance) family tailgate party. Elizabeth loved the bounce house and digging in the sand on the volley ball court. We also threw some rocks into Belton Lake afterwards; we hadn't been out there all summer.

The next weekend we took Elizabeth to our favorite pumpkin patch here in Temple. It has gotten more popular over the years, so now they even have goats you can feed and pet. Ellie also loved the train; she rode the caboose all by herself!

Yesterday, Ellie and I went to another TMEA activity. Everyone dressed up, played at the park, and got to watch an animal show. This child sure is fearless. She touched every animal that they were allowed to, including holding a giant hissing cockroach in her hand. She also happened to win best child's costume!

So excited to find a bike trailer at a garage sale so we can take advantage of the weather even more!!
