Movers and Shakers. . .

Here is a picture of my almost 15 week gut. 4 more weeks and they can tell if it is a boy or girl! Hooray! Any guesses? I think it is a boy, then again, I have always been wrong. We have a girl name and no idea for boy names. We are just going to pull it out of a hat. So far, I am still in my regular jeans but they are starting to squish me when I sit down. The picture was taken by Sammi - she gave it her best shot!

Here are the kiddos doing Tae-bo. They actually do pretty good!
1-2-3 kick!
Sammi lasted a little longer than Daniel. He said he was too tired.


The other night when I was doing Tae-bo I thought the kids were in bed. They got out of their room and were peeking at me. Then they said, "We want to do Tae-bo!" I told them if they went right to bed then tomorrow they could. So they went to bed - amazingly. I turned it on for them and they followed along pretty well. Sammi has done it many times before but Daniel has not been as interested. Here they are giving it a good go. . . it was very entertaining.

  1. That is so freakin cute. Ben is going to be doing that before I know it. Oh wait, he already is. Ha. Mari--you need to show us your actual belly with these pictures. I mean you look the same. You still look not pregnant. You gotta show the belly.

    I love that your kids did Tae-bo!!

  2. If it's a boy, you could always name him "John" (I kinda like that name myself).

    On another note, if you want, you could register "mari4u.com" or "vanormer.net" or something (check godaddy.com to see what domain names are available) for $9 a year and I'll set up server space to make adding pictures and controlling all aspects of your blog A LOT easier (and more robust). Then you could even have an e-mail address a "mari@vanormer.net" or something.

    I'm sure Dad would probably spring for the $9 too :)

    Love you, you look great and I can't wait to see you guys!

  3. Mindy - I suppose I am not as brave as you exposing my bare baby belly. I am a bit stretch-mark scarred from the past pregnancies and it aint too pretty! Charles tells me they are a true sign of real womanhood (thank you Charles). Just wait! My gut will come - I guarantee it! I will post pictures of previous gut-busting!

    John- I do like the name John, but you actually took my first choice already which was Benjamin - it means "son of the right hand". So he has a good meaning to his name! We will have to keep searching for boy names. If it is a girl it will be Elizabeth and we will call her Lizzie. I really think it is a boy. . . time will tell!

    Also, I will get back to you with the domain name thingy. . .
