The Countdown Begins!

So apparently my body is not quite cut out to birth a baby so I am having a C-Section on Monday, October 12th. We are so very excited and can't wait to meet our precious baby. Keep us in your prayers as I try and survive my last week of pregnancy, for a smooth delivery and especially for a healthy baby.

It's a....BOY!!!!

We are so excited to know that our little bundle of joy growing inside of me is a BOY! I had a hunch from the start and several dreams about it being a boy so I guess a mother's instincts are right. Here is my favorite picture from the ultrasound.

A New Home and A Baby Bump

Things are a changing....we recently moved into a house and absolutely love it!!!! We were blessed to be able to rent from some of our friends for about a year and a half until they move back. It is a 3-bedroom and 2-bath and it is just perfect for Ryan and I and the baby on the way! And right after we found out about the house we found out that we were expecting. God is so good and has definitely blessed us beyond measure....even more than we deserve.

Here is a picture of Ryan and I (and my belly) in front of the house on Easter and the other one is of Ryan, Sadie and I and my parents, sister & her husband and my niece Audrey.

A Hospital Stay and Fun Pictues with Daddy














Audrey was hospitalized with a high fever for several days and I think Jared and Jill were going a bit crazy from lack of sleep and had to do whatever they could do to get through it. She was pumped with fluids and monitored and sent home after a few days. Her fever is gone and she gained a good bit of weight from the fluids, so all in all, even though it was traumatic for her and her Mommy, it was good for her to put on some weight.

Here are some pictures of Audrey and her Daddy being silly in the hospital.
