Since we're adding to our family, the time has come to take a few more measures of safety. We got a car that's really comfortable, spacious, yet not too big. Driving in this country is quite the adventure. Here we drive on the left side of the road and rather than a lot of rules, there's more like a philosophy of driving. It's "give and take". You sort of go with the flow and yield a lot but rarely to you have to come to a dead stop. Additionally, cars share the road space with motorbikes, animals, people, and religious ceremonies that are often going on where groups of people will walk a few blocks down a road playing traditional music. There is no speed limit anywhere. How many of these things are normal in the States? Yep, ZERO! :) We also have to install seat belts in the back because it's not that normal to have them in cars here. We still have our motorbike for quick trips and fun outings. Check out the ride:

Baby Emma is Growing
Last weekend Todd and I had a great time getting to see our little baby at our second ultrasound. It's most likely a girl and we are naming her Emma, a name from Katie's mom's side of the family. We we were able to really see her sweet little face, hands, legs, and heart in 4D so it was an incredible image of her moving and turning and looking straight at us! We finally started thinking through what it's going to be like to be parents and have a daughter. We're feeling joy as well as the surreal feeling of the fact that we are adding a member to our family. It won't just be the two of us anymore! Below is me at 4 months and then me at 5 months. I'm not too big, YET!
