This post is mostly for my sister, as she shares Rob and I's love for movies.
We have been giving netflix a try the last couple of months. We have always been avid movie watchers, and frequent redbox, especially since movies stores are hard to come by in Ames these days. Netflix has been nice since we can get movies in blu-ray, which is awesome to watch on our PlayStation.
Rob set up the netflix account, but put me in charge of filling the queue, and wow am I on a roll, -- insert sarcasm here!
Last movies we have watched or streamed --lesson learned perhaps I should read synopsis instead of just looking at the actors starring
Gigantic - not a comedy as I hoped, weird, really weird we finished, I liked John Goodman's performance the best
LymeLife - really weird, not funny, thought it would be since Alec Baldwin stars, Culkin boys are just weird
Outsourced - pretty good actually, hits home since Robert is continually training his conterpart in India to someday "outsource" his own job
PaperHeart - wow did I miss on this one, I am still not sure whether it was a documentary, a movie, a mockumentary. again, totally weird
We did get Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs inbetween, that was a good flick!

Grandpa's Spring Break
Grandpa Jim came up to visit during his Spring break. Emily made him play outside all afternoon. They look like they are having a nice time. It was the most beautiful day of the week!
First car show of the season
Robert and Emily went on a date last Friday. She loves going to car shows with daddy because ice cream has typically and historically been involved. I lucked out as well, because they waiting until driving home from DSM and brought me some ice cream too!

he walked, really walked
I will preface this with the fact that Dallas did take the tiniest little step 2 weeks ago.
Today after nap he full out decided to start walking. I put some socks on him as we were getting ready to go to the gym, I set him down, he ventured out holding my knees, and then walked three-four steps. He sat down, and crawled back and then we repeated this process several times. Then after dinner he really put on a show, I think for Robert. He was walking from furniture pieces to furniture pieces, and to people. Emily gets really excited when he heads her way.
Dallas walked at 15 mo, 3 wks
he is also getting really good at expressing himself and his needs.
He can sign;
more
all done
hat
night, night
thank-you
He also can say, at least I can understand
mama (he says alot, the gym helpers say he says this alot)
dada
mar (more)
nana (banana)
bah! (Bo) he yells this one, he sees me do this alot when I am calling him inside
he also excels at any tractor or car noise
he is starting to repeat anything I say when I am trying to teach him a new word

one, two, three, Oh baby
Three is a nice number, don't you think? We think so, Kibbe #3 is on it's way.
I am 15 weeks pregnant. We heard the heartbeat, on Thursday, a nice stead 160 bpm! The midwife found it right away, which is always a relief, I remember it taking a while with Dallas, there is a tad bit of anxiety that goes with waiting to hear that heartbeat for the first time. She put the "due date" at Sept 11, using our conception date, we are missing some information on my cycle that could give us a more precise date, but I am not too worried about that, babies come when they come.
The midwife also offered us an earlier ultrasound so we could pinpoint the age, but again, I am not too worried, especially if she is not worried, she felt like I was at 15 wk, and that is what we were figuring as well. She broke the news to us that she was no longer going to be on call to deliver. She delivered Emily and I just love her and her bedside manner. All in all there is only a 1 in 4 chance I would get her at delivery again, but she will be missed. I think I will still go to her for some appointments, as well as try to get to know the new Midwife on staff since I had Dallas, that way we are comfortable with everyone.
My next appointment will be in a month and will be the ultrasound appointment, Chelsey is dying for us to find out the sex, but we are leaning towards not knowing.
