The Holt's Visit

We were so excited that Corey, Emily, Carter, and Baby Alex all came to visit yesterday. It was fun to see some of our El Paso friends and finally get to meet Baby Alex. We miss them already!

Friends before they were born and finally getting to meet. They seemed to hit it off!

Third Birthday and First Day of Preschool

Yesterday was a very busy day for Lillie. She celebrated her birthday and started preschool. For as long as she has been aware of dropping Connor of at school, she has wanted to go too. Finally her turn came, and she couldn't have been more excited. As soon as we saw the school from the car, she began yelling, "Ms. Jen, kids, here I come!" This went on over and over again until I stopped the car. She proceeded to run through the hallway and into her classroom where she threw down her backpack and lunchbox not even thinking about telling me good-bye.

To celebrate her birthday we took her to Chuck E Cheese's, at her request. Afterward, we meet Grams, Papa Bill, Kara, Keith, and Annabelle back at our house for cake and presents. What a wonderful day!

The famous "first day of school" picture.

She was off with the other kids before I had a chance to snap a picture. She is the one in the pink.



It's time to start taking cake decorating classes!

It's Been A While

I can't believe that it's been over 6 months six I posted!! So many changes have taken place. I decided to just post random pictures of what has happened the past six months and try to keep current from here on out!



Nick and Connor at Lake Athens. The kids favorite place!

Lillie and Carter

This is Lillie's friend Carter. Their birthday's are only a few weeks apart and Carter's mom is also pregnant due two weeks after I am. It will be fun to get pictures of the next set of friends together!

17 Weeks and 7 ounces

We went to my high-risk ob today for a routine anatomy scan. Everything looks great and at 17 weeks, he weighs 1/2 lb! They tried to get a better picture of his face, but both hands were up and he wouldn't move them.

A Little Face Time

Lillie either wants to be really sweet and loving with Connor or she doesn't want him to bother her at all. This is definitely a loving moment!

Making His Blog Debut!

Since I haven't officially announced it here, yes we are expecting another baby due July 6th and yes it's a boy!! When I created this blog 6 months ago and typed in, "What adventures are in store for our family next," in the subtitle, I never dreamed it would be another child! At week 15 in the pregnancy, which was last week, we found out the sex of the baby. Connor is thrilled and can't wait to have a brother. Lillie has started telling me that she is going to have 2 brothers, so I guess she is excited too!
