Here is a picture of our little bun!! I'm not seeing any Asian in our baby, however I'm guessing it is probably a little too soon to tell! ;) Matt just bought a new printer/scanner/fax so once we get it set up, I will add more detailed pictures as this one was taken with my iphone. The ultrasound turned out well, with the exception that the technician was not able to get an accurate read on the measurement since our baby was not cooperating... Defiance already at such an early age?! Matt says the baby gets that from me, but I think it could be from him. When the technician tried to rattle the baby to move positions, it just ignored her as Matt will often do with me if I'm trying to get his attention while he's on the Xbox! :) So far our baby seems to take after his father... minus the political reads and fantasy football statistics. We won't know if we are having a boy or girl until October 30th but if it is a girl who reads books on politics and plays fantasy football, I may weep... Who will go clothes shopping with me and watch all the chick flicks?! As for the Luce and Maggs... both are doing well. Lucy is clueless there is a baby on the way as she keeps jumping on my stomach when I'm trying to read in bed (baby does not like that!). Maggie is content as long as it is quiet so I wonder how she'll feel when the baby comes...

That's not the baby Jesus in the grilled cheese sandwich... That's our baby!

Hey Malaika and Matt,
Congratulations, you two, on your exciting news! I am so thrilled for you guys. And Malaika, relax, I read political books (though I don't like fantasy football) and I still like shopping for clothes (though not so much now with my post-baby body) and occasionally watching chick flicks. I even saw "Mamma Mia!" this summer! No need to force your little baby into a gender straitjacket even before s/he is born. Anyway, I hope things continue to go easily for you. A last piece of hope: our dog Lucy seemed to do well with both newborns when we had guests greet her first when they visited. Actually, that tactic worked on Max as a big brother, too....newborns don't care about visitors, and dogs and older sibs love the extra attention!
XOXO
Siri, with best wishes from Ethan, Max, and Rebecca
Hi Maliaka,
Congratulations, I can hardly believe it. I am thrilled for both of you of course. Can you believe its been 8 years since we were out of college. How the time flies. We still have just one kid (NOW 3 years old) and trying for another. Other than that just working and still living in Almira. Best wishes and good luck with the new born.
Your long lost friend
Matt Elder
I am so excited for Baby Brown! And I love to have another blog to read.
