Xanga Get-Together
Ok, as promised, I want to put my feelers out there and see who would be interested in a girls only (well...aside from nursing baby boys 
) xanga get together this summer up here on Lake Michigan. I need feedback...which months look good (June, July, August...from there we will try to figure out dates), one or two nights, depending on how many are interested we could all sleep over here at my house or we could get hotel rooms, kids or no kids, (obviously nursing babies will be present out of necessity ) etc... Most of us only know one another through the computer so this might be a great way to get to know one another a little better...we could lounge around the beach or the many parks during the day, and we have tons of resortish towns with adorable little shops (and awesome ice cream parlors) to frequent in the evenings...ohhh...I am getting so excited just thinking about it! I live about 5 hours north of Columbus to give you all a feel for if driving is a possibility (if you want specifics so you can make an educated decision...just message me ) Many of you live in Ohio...maybe you could carpool? Anyway...just wanted to throw that out there and see if anyone was interested!!!

Thank you so much for your name ideas! I told Jon I did that last night and he seems pretty set on the name we chose...it is just me floundering at this point. I LOVE Logan...and numerous people have suggested it. I think it sounds great with Landon...but Jon's hang up is that we won't be naming a third child an "L" name and so the third won't fit with the first and second children's names....he is pretty detail oriented I also love Elijah and Mason (Mason is one of my top names...again vetoed by my hubby!). I like Owen, but know a couple and I don't want to associate my son with the Owen's that I know So...unless I come up with some new names today, the one we chose a few weeks ago will be the name. I think it is so interesting that many of the names you all suggested were in our top 5-10 list. I will say, that up until a few weeks ago we had named this child Avery Hunsberger. However, Easter weekend we learned that Jon's cousin named her DAUGHTER this a few days earlier...and that idea died quickly thereafter. We knew it was a name used for both sexes, but I cannot bear to give my son a name that is at all feminine...so even though I still think of him as Avery...I don't think he will be

Jonathan had Bible study last night so I took Landon down to the festival. We had such a nice time walking around, and the weather could not have been more beautiful. He had his first taste of an elephant ear, which he thought was a real elephant's ear, but loved nonetheless. I am cherishing these last few days, just him and I...just the three of us. It is odd knowing that life is about to change in every possible way in two short days...or before. I feel much more content this week than last...at this point I am just getting anxious about labor and praying for a healthy little baby!
Off to go enjoy the sun. Have a beautiful day, friends!
