Birthday Week

Hello everyone. Well, it's been about two weeks since our last blog. Three mid-terms in one week isn't as easy as it sounds. Marissa is doing great. She's getting hot and she's tired, but she's been really healthy during her pregnancy. Birthday week was also a success! (My birthday is June 14th and Marissa's is June 22nd so we have a week long birthday celebration at our house. It's kind of like Christmas in June).

We have also been getting closer on picking out a name for our baby boy. The top three names we like are: Henry, Finn, and Jack. Hopefully we find one before he comes. Below are some pictures we have taken over the past couple of weeks.

Marissa's birthday cake (We have a tradition of wearing the 'birthday hat' on our birthday, fortunately we usually forget to put it on. However, my dad makes sure that Marissa doesn't have a birthday without it.)

Look how big our baby is getting! (Not Marissa, the baby).

Guys it was fun to see your birthday week since we couldn't be there! Marissa look so cute, I can't wait for baby Richins to come. I love that Dad remembers the birthday hat every year for Marissa. That is what happens when you are the one who makes him wear it on his birthday!
