It's a Boy!!! and other news.

Sean and I announced on Monday that we're having a boy, however, we did not post it here.
Not for any real reason, we just spaced it. [Actually, I remembered and asked Sean if he would post it here but...I love him anyway.]

Here's the video we posted to our facebook accounts:

We're both terribly excited! I'm so glad I get to share my interests in things like dinosaurs, baseball, and art with a tiny baby boy in a few months.

Last weekend, we went on a spontaneous road trip (like we do) to Wyoming for Sean's youngest brother's birthday. We got there at midnight-ish and Sean woke Jeremiah up with a swift punch to the face, which I'm sure Jeremiah appreciated ;). We chatted for a bit and then went to bed and the next morning, went to the bagel shop a short walk from their house.

There, we got to surprise Jeremiah with his mom's, dad's, and youngest sister's presence, and them with ours. If that makes sense. Later that day, Sean's other younger brother and his wife came out too. Milo was going absolutely berserk (aka punching me in the guts) the whole weekend, either because he was excited to hear his uncles, aunts, grandma, and grandpa or because he was uncomfortable staying up late chatting or sleeping on an air mattress. Either way, it was nice to see about 1/2 of Sean's family.

Before we left for Wyoming, Sean and I had a meeting with our lender and we're pre-approved to buy a house! Hooray grown-up stuff! Now we have a meeting with our realtor (/friend) this coming Friday to start our search. So exciting! We'll get to bring Milo home to our own house!

We're just very happy with how everything is going. We only need some people to give the final word on Sean's new position (that he's actually been doing for the past 6 months). Then everything will be great.

Love,
Miss Ellen and Milo
