Its hard to believe that all that busyness was last weekend! We survived though! The batizado went very well, and we are proud of all the people who moved up in cords. :)
Since then we have just been trying to regroup. We had an ultrasound to see how big baby Lucy is. They also did confirm that it is in fact a girl :) They approximated that she is about 7.5 lbs right now. That means if she goes to term she will be about a 9 lb babe... just like older brother Tristan! We sure know how to cook big babies around here... but I like them that way better. We also picked a c-section date unless she hatches naturally. So, if she isn't here by the 15th then, she will be for sure!
More exciting news is that Gaetan sent in his letter of acceptance for the PhD program to the TAing job at WMU. So as of the fall he will be a student again! I am so proud of him. I know that he is concerned about providing for us now, since the stipend is a little less than we anticipated, but I'm not worried at all. I know that God has opened these doors for a reason, and to try to make it all work out now on our own seems faithless. I know that he's gonna do great and I look forward to seeing what types of things he will be able to do!
It seems that Bugga is transitioning a little better into the new life. I know that the move, and having all these people around was hard on him. He's so aware of everything it should've have surprised me that this would affect him. But he's almost back to his sweet natured self again. He does get a little upset when he's hungry, but I can't blame him for that ;)
The next few weekends until Lucy is here (which isn't that many more!) seem pretty relaxed which is GREAT. I'm hoping to have a lot of things in order before she gets here, but we'll see! Getting more and more eager to have her in my arms than in my ever growing belly.

WOOT WOOT FOR THE VG FAMILY!
