Emma Elisabeth graced our presence November 26th. 3 weeks early but not a minute to late. I had a very easy 2 hour birth. I can handle that!!! :)

 I love this picture of Maddie and Emma.

 Nathan is so in love with little Emma. He is already her protector and playmate!!

 I couldn't decide which picture I liked more out of these next ones...so you get them all!! :)

 She was having such a ball talking to me that day!!

I cannot even begin to describe how in love I am. 12 weeks have gone by so very fast.

I don't have a lot of time to write alot but I wanted to get some pictures up.

It's a.....

GIRL!!!!!!!

Hello!! I cannot even begin to tell you how much I miss blogging. I miss it like crazy!!

I don't really have a whole lot to say. I have more pictures then anything. But alas...I can't upload them. :(

I am counting down the days till my next ultrasound which is next wed. Hopefully we can find out what it is. I have been looking forward to this for quite a while now. There is just something about seeing your unborn baby on that little black and white screen. It is pretty fantastic.

We are at the half way point now. Yah!!

Sorry this is so short. But I just wanted to say hello to everyone!!

I miss blogging!! We are having internet issues here at our house. ;) which is cutting down on my blogging capabilities.

We are doing well. We had our 1st ultrasound last week which was pretty cool. With time you kinda forget how cool ultrasounds are. Especially when it is your baby you are looking at. I cried during the ultrasound. It was just so cool to see the little tiny baby moving all around, kicking its arms and legs. So amazing. I can't wait now to feel it moving.

The kids are doing well also. They are enjoying their summer. So far I haven't heard to many...I'm bored's... Yet. If I hear it I give them a chore to do and that kinda changes their mind. ;) we were finally able to get to the pool this past week. What a relaxing afternoon.

Dada has already been on vacation. She went to Missouri with Grandma and Grandpa and had a week of pure spoiling. Brother will be going to Missouri in July to get his turn of spoiling. He kinda can't wait.

Jonathan and Melanie had their baby. Jonas Daniel was born June 8th. My parents were able to fly out and meet their new grandson.

That's the news that I have for now. I hope you(...my 1 reader?!?!) Is having a good summer.

Ye-Ha

Dada is in the middle of her 3rd production with her children's theater group. She is having so much fun playing Buzz the outlaw.






Dada's friend Victoria joined the theater group this year. Her excitement is so catching. She had so much fun on stage and did a great job! She was an Indian. The Indians had a cute little dance.
So fun to watch!



I remember talking to Dada the night before the play and it was the 1st time she has admitted being nervous about messing up her lines. She said that she confuses 2 lines. But she did a wonderful job!

I love this picture of Uncle Jeff and Dada....

Mike, Joanna and the kids all came as well, but I didn't grab a picture of them before they left.

Proud Momma and Daddy......(Don't I look tired??)

My favorite!!! This flower I think has to be my all time favorite flower smell!!



Brother has been perfecting his BB gun shot. He likes to do this almost every day. Or every day that Daddy will let him.



Why yes, the kids have already talked me into letting them play in the sprinkler. To bad the weather won't stay consistent. It fluctuates from the 80's to the 60's.



The neighbor boys came over as well and it was boys against girl. I have to say that Girl was sadly outnumbered. She ended up running off pouting. She needs another girl in the neighborhood!



But....summer is coming. We only have 1 week left of school. I have the summer itch like crazy!!! 1 more week. I can do this!
