On the road again (or some other road trip cliche)


Because we seem to have a complete inability to sit still for very long, we are heading out for the next couple of weeks on another vacation. Well, poor Corey has to return on Monday, but Charlie Jo and I won't be home again until the very end of the month.

The BIG news is that we found out today the gender of the one we have thus referred to as "Baby Stringer." It's a boy! Unfortunately, we have yet to decide on a name, so for now he will have to be called "Baby Boy Stringer." Not much better, I know, but we're getting there. There are some good candidates, but no decision has been reached. We have 22 more weeks to ponder, but that time is going to fly right by!

Time to start planning Charlie Jo's move to her big girl bed in her new bedroom (the nursery is staying as is since it was intentionally decorated gender-neutrally). She won't make the physical move until probably November, but in the meantime we need to repaint and redecorate what until now was one of my favorite rooms. Though I will mourn the loss of my "California Room", I'm excited to design a fun room for CJ to enjoy and grown with!

Yeah! Quinn is especially excited. (He will be glad to teach Baby Boy Cousin how to read the WSJ in the you know where.) Can't wait to hear how you decide to design CJ's new room. How fun!
