My parents arrived yesterday evening from South Bend! It's so great to see them! Mom says I haven't changed much - can't tell yet! Dad and Brent cooked a great meal tonight...homemade crab cakes for the boys and steak for the girls. Now we're all fat and happy and almost ready for bed.
Earlier today we took Jo-Jo for a walk in the park. I got a surprising and very fun phone call while we were there - Phil Jr all the way from Afghanistan. He told me in the first message he left for me that he would call me again, and he did. He told us congrats about the baby again and we passed the phone around. The picture posted is me talking to him. Very special moment for us here - my Mom got teary when we hung up. Phil said it's freezing there, but he was inside the office today. He said he is ready to come home in April and we're all ready to have him home, too. It was just so great to hear from him!
I have Tuesday off work and will spend the day with my Mom and Dad. I have my first doctor's appointment (just the check-up), so it will be kind of fun to share that with them. Then we have plans to look around at baby stuff - how fun!

baby shopping is the best! call me and ill tell you everything you should know that no one tells you before buying a carseat and stroller (travel system)...among other things!
Your Mom and Dad picked a great week to come visit you. The weather up here is terrible. It is very cold and very snowy. It sounds like everyone is having a great visit. It is so good to hear that Phil will be coming home in April.
Love,
Dad H
