our big ultrasound is scheduled for tomorrow morning!  hoping the baby will be cooperative so we can see if it’s a him or her.  but mostly, just praying for a healthy baby.  

so the tsai fam went to the minnesota vs. ohio game saturday afternoon.  mikey’s first college football game! and what football game would be complete without a little tailgating?  we picked up breakfast at burger king and ate it in our trunk before heading over to the metrodome. beware of gophers! amazingly, mikey was content to sit on our laps for the whole first half of the game!  it was a good thing too since our seats were smack in the middle of a filled section.  we were worried that he’d get squirmy and want to get down to get his wiggles out.  turns out he was fascinated with the guys running around…

the last thursday of every month, our small group gets together with another small group- girls at one house, guys at another.  usually, the girls take the 6 kiddos (soon to be 9 as three of the five ladies in our group are currently expecting!) so we’re always stuck inside trying to manage the chaos of toddlers and babies.  but tonight, the guys took all the kids so we had a free night.  definitely wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and go somewhere, anywhere. so after tossing some ideas around, we ended up doing a scavenger hunt at Super Target!  big thanks to my hubs for thinking up the idea…

quick update– more responses are back for phil.  boo on the u of chicago who don’t know what they’re missing.    yay for the u of minnesota and loyola university (in illinois) who both offered phil interviews.  he’s going to be one busy travelin’ man the next few months!  in baby news, our big ultrasound is in less than two weeks!  hopefully we’ll get to find out if mikey’s getting a little sister or little brother.    btw, i’ve been feeling gentle little baby kicks for a week or so. and finally, phil took these pictures the other night after we went out for an ice cream run. two of…
