Here is my week 21 belly shot:
Sure wish I could find those first trimester photos so that I could prove that I really did once look skinny in this outfit! ;-)

Week 21 Photo
Well, I seem to have misplaced the pregnancy photos that Garrett was taking weekly at the beginning of my pregnancy so I don't have any of the comparison shots (I was wearing the same outfit, standing in the same spot, etc) but I figured I would just move forward and go ahead and post the photo that we took this weekend.

Guess the Baby's Gender!
I added a gender poll so start submitting your guesses! (its anonymous)
We have our big ultrasound on August 25th. We hope to be able to tell the gender, of course this means that baby has to cooperate! We will be happy with either gender- we are just hoping for a healthy baby. I think the baby is a boy and Garrett thinks the baby is a girl, only 9 more days until we (might) know!

Vacation Day 4: Colorado Great Sand Dunes and Zapata Falls
Day 4:
We started off bright and early with a trip to Colorado's Great Sand Dunes! These things are HUGE! They are the tallest sand dunes in North America and cover more than 330 sq miles. While we were there it was just sand but during the middle months of the year there is water around the base of the dunes.
You can see the lower right portion of the sand dunes in the panoramic shot that we took below. (We took four pictures and stitched them together to get this shot)

Next we took a short trip over to Zapata Falls. At first we hiked uphill half a mile in the heat but once we reached the top there was a short path down to a creek where the temperature dropped a glorious 15- 20 degrees.
We had to wade/step across the icy cold water to get up to the cave but it was worth it!
Panoramic shot of the cave entrance.
Hailey and Astrid inside climbing up for a better view.

On the hour and a half trip back from Zapata Falls it started to rain. This wouldn't have been a problem except that the window on my Dad's truck broke that morning in the window down position. (photo of Astrid by Morgan)
By the time we got back we were pretty tired but we had a great last day of our trip! The next day we all scattered our separate ways. Garrett and I headed back to College Station via a stop over in Abilene, my parents headed over to Santa Fe, NM to visit with my Aunt Claudia for a day, and Adam and Hailey had one more day in Red River to close up the house before they headed home to Abilene. We had a wonderful fun filled trip!

Vacation Day 3: Jeep Tour, Geocaching and River contest
Day 3:
Garrett, Adam, Hailey, Astrid, and Dad got up bright and early to go on a self guided Jeep Tour! (Morgan, my Mom and I went shopping. Being pregnant, I didn't meet the requirements to go on a Jeep trip- but that's okay!)
Astrid and Hailey at the top!
Another view from 11,200 feet.
Lake Cabresto
Adam skipping rocks.
Dad looking at neat stones along the way. There was a lot of mica rock.
Interesting looking mountain house.
Alpaca
Later that afternoon, Morgan, Hailey, Adam, Astrid, and Dad went on a grueling hike to look for a geocache! I have to admit, I'm a bit envious. In my non-pregnant state I would have been all over this hike. :-)
Dad and Morgan near the entrance to the old Miner's cave. Luckily there were no bears in residence.
No Geocache (or bears) in here!
Ah, what do you know- it was at the base of a tree OUTSIDE the cave! (everyone is relieved by this news!)
Later that evening Astrid, Hailey, and Adam had a "Who can stand in the cold river the longest" contest. Morgan was the moderator and took pictures.
It came down to just Hailey and Astrid. With dinner approaching the competition turned sneaky. In the end, Hailey was victorious!
