Well.. Update I Suppose!

Yes, I have been a slacker lately at blogging. Here are some pictures from Christmas. We had a lovely time at home though all of us were sick.

Here Brinley is opening presents..

Mike more excited than Brinley about the Strawberry Ann doll from great Grandma Duthrie.

Focused on drinking and opening at the same time.. she is also a great multi-tasker while talking on the phone!

And this is another little gift:

We are excited to announce baby Duthrie #2 coming July 15!!! This pregnancy has been a little more nauseous than the last... though I can't complain because last time I didn't have any. I am feeling great for the most part and I am definitely starting to show earlier this time. I had my first appointment this week and Mike and Brinley were able to join me. Brinley didn't particularly enjoy it, but Mike and I were both very excited to see the little duck moving around and the little heartbeat flutter.

I took a few predictor tests online to "guess" the gender. Anyways they are pretty silly, but fun to do. The ring test proved to be confusing to me--it swayed side to side while slightly spinning.. not exactly sure what that is supposed to mean. I took the Old Wives test which said I was having a boy. And then I looked at the lunar Chinese calendar which according to my age and month of conception claimed that I will have a boy. However, I have little faith in that calendar because then Brinley should have been a boy. Maybe it is reverse for me, in that case I will have a girl. I guess I am 1 for boy and 1 for girl!
