Updates...

Again, no pictures (sorry, I'm a slacker). While we're staying at my parents' house, our laptop is stowed away. I'll have a few on Facebook soon, but we've been laying pretty low and trying to save some $$ in preparation for our little one. As a result, our love for travel has taken a backseat, which we expected. However, travel doesn't even come close to comparing to having a CHILD! Cari and baby Lebron (no, that's not REALLY what we're going to name him) are both healthy and active. Cari continues to experience the ups and downs of pregnancy and has officially entered the third trimester, which I call the "it doesn't matter how I sit or lay down, I'm just uncomfortable" phase! We're continuing to learn about exercises, what to eat, what works and doesn't. We're going to be pros by the time the baby is born!

Everything is still on track for a late-January delivery. We even took a "preparing for childbirth" class last weekend and learned a LOT about the delivery and labor process. We toured the hospital, and more importantly, I learned how to change a diaper. That's right folks...WATCH OUT! In related baby news, my sister had her second child, Camden Matthew Comiskey, on 11/2/12! We took the day off to drive down to Concord and see her and her mini-linebacker (all 9lbs 4oz of him). What a blessing it is to actually be able to drive 2 hours and see family instead of pay $600 and fly all day long!

In NON baby-related news, we finally signed a lease on a rental house, starting 12/1. It's a great place near Lake Johnson in a small, quiet neighborhood. It has an attached garage and fenced-in backyard, and it will hopefully be enough space for us, baby, and some guests. As gracious as we are for my parents allowing us to stay in their house, we are excited to be in our own place with our own things and feel a little more settled.

There's not much else going on around here! We got to enjoy tailgating at JMU for homecoming this year with some great friends and dinner afterwards (again, another event we haven't had the opportunity to attend until we moved back). Otherwise, we're gearing up for UNC basketball and hunkering down for the "cold" southern transition to winter (ha. haha.). Keep checking back for more updates!
