Adding to our already incredible experience here will be the arrival of our son. I am a little nervous about giving birth in another country, but we've heard babies are born here almost daily, so it should be OK.
The most exciting part the second time around is the sibling aspect. Eri loves going with me to see "x-rays" of her little brother. At a recent appointment, she asked the doctor if: 1. He was crying in there, 2. If he was wearing any clothes, 3. If we could see his wiener. That last one she asked in english and the doctor didn't understand, but I confirmed for her that he's still a boy. As a journalist by trade, I was quite impressed with her line of questioning.
We're entering into the home stretch now and can't wait for the baby's arrival. Geoff's cousin Karen is also pregnant and we've decided to have our babies on the same day. I think with the time change between here and Colorado, it's do-able. So, check back for big news on the agreed date of August 16.

| Yep, definitely a boy! |

| Kisses! Eri is very excited to be a big sister. She likes to shake my hump and say, "Wake up Leo, wake up, sleepy head." (We've talked about not doing that after he arrives.) |
