Surprise, Surprise: We are Having a GIRL!!!

We had a great ultrasound today. The technician took a few 3D pictures for us. This is a picture of the face. He of course checked the Sex- and it is most definitely, without a doubt- A Girl- we saw the little Girl Parts clear as day. At first we thought he was joking, but when we saw it for ourselves we knew he was serious. We are both unbelievably excited. Erick is still grinning ear to ear. The little one already has hair and the tech. said that she is a long baby.

Now we will have to start thinking about good Scandinavian Girl Names- for all of you Simonsen relatives- please post some ideas! For the rest of you- I would of course still value your opinion and please leave some ideas, but I have a feeling this little girl with have a traditional name like Elsie.

It's a Foot

The little baby has long legs and feet! Just like her Daddy!

Last Night at The Red Lion

Our favorite place to eat is the Red Lion- there is great barbecue and its cheap. I worked all day in my air conditioned office and Erick worked all day on a hot roof, so he was pretty dirty- we both enjoyed beverages, although mine was non-alcoholic. I thought that this was a good pic to see how big the little guy is getting.

Erick's a Natural!

Erick is feeding his Nephew (in law) Keelan. I couldn't get him to take a bottle, but as soon as Erick sat down with him he quieted right down and drank and then took a little nap- the little stinker.

100 degrees at Pearl Jam

Erick and I and the little guy braved the heat and went to the Pearl Jam concert at The Gorge. We camped with some friends and walked the short distance to the concert. It was incredibly hot, and by the end of the night my poor ankles were completely swollen. The next morning we got up bright and early and went swimming in the icy cold river by our campsite. The baby (and Erick and I) Loved it.

BabySimo's Cousin

This is Keelan Ambrose Gadwa, my brother Jason's son. He was born in December of last year and is the cutiest little guy on the planet. Who would of thought he would have a cousin a mere 11 months later.

Baby Boy Simonsen's First Blog

Grandma's Simonsen and DeVereHunt will be happy to know that this little guy is going to be so technologically advanced, he had a Blog site before he was even born!

Erick and I are going to try to keep this updated for our family and friends so that they can see what the little guy is up to now, like his first Pearl Jam concert, and we'll keep adding pictures and fun anecdotes as the days/months/years go by.
Hopefully you enjoy the site as much as we will enjoy sharing our life stories!
