Yes, we are expecting our second child in early August! I am 18 weeks along and feeling great. We did plan on having an "international baby" - which seemed like a fun idea at the time, but some days I think we are out of our minds for doing this!! I am just hoping for another good pregnancy and decent healthcare in England. People there have babies all the time and survive, right?! Lincoln is really cute when you ask him where the baby is - he points to my tummy and says "Baby!" I'm sure he has no idea what that means (and what it will mean for his status of only-child-beloved) but it is cute to see that he at least understands a little bit of what's going on.
Link and I visited my parents in Kansas City last week and had a great time. One of the highlights was seeing "The Cat in the Hat" at the PBK. Link is not one for stranger anxiety, but I wasn't sure how he would react to a dressed up person in a cat suit. Well...he LOVED him! He would not stop hugging and smiling at the Cat. When we left he cried and kept saying "Cat! Cat!" A week later we went back to the store and as soon as we pulled up Link said "Cat?!" - he remembered his good friend the Cat in the Hat.
Another real gem in KC was this great restaurant, Fritz's. It is train-themed (a perfect winner for Link) and has model trains running throughout the restaurant. But the BEST part is that little trains on a track overhead carry trays of food and then drop them on a platform that lowers to the appropriate table. How cool is that?!! Lincoln was in awe the whole time and loved watching all the trains.
The platform lowering our food to the table:
Ryan had to stay home and work while we were off having a good time. :( But he just got his new Kindle 2 (backordered birthday gift) and is having fun with that.

That restaurant sounds fantastic! how fun! good luck with the pregnancy - I would be nervous too, but I'm sure it will be great. I'm so excited for your number 2 baby!
I wish I had your fun. That restaurant seems pretty sweet! And you're almost half way to the finish w/ your pregnancy. can you believe it? lol. we're gonna miss you guys.
It was so much fun to have you here! Hope you stay well. We (Dad and I) are just now getting hit with the cold. (guess we just kissed Link too much) :) Hopefully it will go away quickly!
Welcome back, and glad you're all feeling better! That restaurant looks like so much fun!
That looked like a fun trip! Brett says he's really glad Ryan got the Kindle 2 and not that old one :)
What a fun restaurant. Looks like Lincoln had a great time. So glad you had a fun trip and that you are all feeling better.
What fun we had! Thank you, thank you!
What a fun restaurant! I am pretty impressed that Lincoln could remember the Cat in the Hat after a week. What a smart kid.
I don't have any brilliant comments, but I love reading about you guys and your adventures! :)
