Big News for the Cramer's...

There are so many things I have wanted to update on but we haven't been very alive or well these days. We have had the flu at our house for quite a few days now...and just when I thought it was over Kylee threw up today! Looks like we are starting over again!

Let's just say that I am really grateful that I have a washer and dryer and that it can run constantly day and night for a week at a time (or longer?)

And now for a few bits of BIG news for our family...

First of all, we found out that we are having another

girl!

So fun! And now the name game begins. Only now we have two kids who are old enough to have opinions. I thought it was tricky enough between Steve and I to come up with a name. Now Cody and Kylee chime in with their "no way" or "yeah" in response to our name ideas. Kylee has even figured out that she can really bug Cody if he overhears her saying, "Cody likes the name Sally." She sure knows how to get a rise out of him. Pretty entertaining for the rest of us though!! And not only do we have a name to figure out, but we have a little girl who is currently the baby of the family who will have to scoot over a little and make some room for a new little Miss. Hmmm. Never had to figure out that one before. :)

Second bit of news is we have a

job!

Steve's first day of work is May 16th at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab. Hooray for not being unemployed!!! And now to find a house in MD so that we aren't homeless...and so we can move a few weeks before bundle of joy #3 is born. Some moments I feel like I am completely looney--graduating, new job, moving, and new baby? What?! I am just grateful that all of those things are GOOD changes! :) When we had our ultrasound a few weeks ago the technician was surprised to find out that we were possibly moving right before we had our baby. Steve said, "moving is a good thing! It means we will have a job!" SO TRUE. And we are so grateful for that! What a blessing!

And now for a little story:

The other night Cody was laying in bed and as I was saying good night he said, "Mom, did you know there's only 7 more days until the Super Bowl?"

(Hello! We live in Steelers Country! If this kids learns anything in Kindergarten it's how to be a Steelers fan!)

I said, "Yeah. Pretty cool."

(We aren't the best fans. We really are shameful for living in Pittsburgh, but I at least knew that the Steelers were going to be in the Super Bowl even if I couldn't tell you who the other team is...Don't worry! Steve's mom educated us on that one so I know now.)

Then I asked, "Do you know what the Super Bowl is?"

Cody, "Nope. What is it?"
