Such a blessing

Brooks is proud of his new cousin
Grandparents of two..soon to be three!! :)

Fast forward 6 weeks:
Brooks & I just got back from a visit with this precious baby girl. I am in love!! She loves to cuddle and this proud aunt did not want to put her down. Brooks was very interested in E, wanted to hold her, push her in the swing, etc. My sister is such a great mommy and it is so neat to watch her start the journey into motherhood. There is just no better job in the world. I am so happy for her!!
We can't wait to see them again for Thanksgiving.

Loving her swing

Sweet cousins

Our 100th post & we're thinking blue...

Today, I am adding our 100th post and couldn't think of a better topic than our precious second child!! We found out a few weeks ago...IT'S A BOY. Bryan and I had the sonogram tech seal our news in an envelope to keep secret until that night. We planned to go to dinner and open as a family. It was a very long day waiting for B to get home from work, and all I could do not to open it. We headed to Cheesecake Factory, placed our order, and I tore open the envelope. Brooks said all along that the baby was a girl, and had me somewhat convinced. The weekend before our sonogram, Bryan was out of town and I really started feeling boy. Our sweet little one is healthy and quite active. Both the sonogram tech and doctor commented on how much he was moving. It is just such an amazing/emotional feeling to watch your child wiggling around inside of you. Such an abundant blessing from above!!!



He's definitely a boy
Proud, proud big brother

5 months

3 months-notice the motion bands I'm sporting..they are my constant companion!! So fashionable...
Now, we are starting to throw around a few names, pick out bedding, think about the nursery, and prepare for his spring arrival!! Hard to believe I'll be toting around two little guys in a few months.
