Update

So as of right now her name is Korbyn Ruth Coates, I say right now because I think Colton and I are both waiting to see if another name catches our attention (I don't know why, we both love this name!).  It seems like my belly has doubled in size in just a week or so and she is kicking more than ever!  It's really funny because the main times during the day that it feels like she is doing karate in there is when I get hungry and when I lay down or even just sit still after being up on my feet for a long time, she already is letting me know when she's hungry...little brat :)  Just starting last week I started getting strangers asking me when I was due, I guess I just looked like a fat cow up until then!  This week has probably been the most exciting (so far) in my pregnancy, just because I have an obvious baby bump now, I feel her move ALL the time and Colton can too, and I'm not uncomfortable...yet.  I'm definitely not looking forward to those last couple of months though because as most of you know I have one of the smallest bladders known to man.  When I wasn't pregnant I would have to go at least every hour, now it seems like that's where I spend the majority of my day and I'm only in my sixth month!  Can you imagine how often I will be in there when I'm 8-9 months?!  And I now understand why pregnant women waddle, well at least I know why I already do...because I always have to pee!  And when I have to go really bad it seems like she knows exactly where my bladder is and she'll give it a nice little kick...thanks sweetie :)

At work we are having our annual garage sale (so if anybody wants to come out and shop it will be Friday 11-6 and Saturday 8-12!) and it has been a major chore.  Thankfully we are able to use the church's fellowship hall so we won't have to sweat.  I don't know if any of you are familiar with the hall, but it's a pretty good size and it is now FULL of stuff for our sale.  I'm very excited because this is my first garage sale ever!  So I've had a few employees ask me if they can buy some stuff already and I tell them of course, if they see something they like just let me know and I'll give them a price and they pay me.  So I told myself that I can't get anything to bring home just because I already have a pile in our kitchen that is for our own garage sale.  I've been trying to stay after work this week to go through stuff, but 7-6 is a long day for me and I really just want to go home!  Yesterday I told Colton that I was going to stay for a couple of hours so he stopped by after he got off work and I was hoping that he was going to help me...oh no.  He went throught EVERY single box and started making himself a little pile.  So about 8 o'clock we finally get out of there and have to make like 3 trips to his truck worth of stuff!!!  I can't say much though because today one of the moms brought in a bunch of stuff from her little girl and I went through everything that she had brought.  I ended up walking out of there with two bags full of clothes and a diaper bag full of clothes and other stuff.  But everything she had was so new!  Some of the stuff had never been opened or had the tags on them!  And her daughter isn't even 2 yet so everything was still super cute and in style and for $.25/piece you can't complain.  But I think I'm going to have to write the dayschool like a $100 check from all the stuff we took, and half of it will probably end up in our garage sale anyway!
