Fall Photos

Joel and I took some fall pictures with a gorgeous tree outside our home last week. The one with his hand on my belly is our attempt to include the baby, even though you can't really tell I'm pregnant yet :) Enjoy!

Ultrasound Pictures

We have had a lot of people ask us to see the ultrasound photos of our baby. Unfortunately, we were only 6 weeks along for the first one, and 8 weeks along for the most recent. We are currently 14 weeks along, so I'm sure the baby looks a LOT different at this point. So to explain the pictures, the first one is the baby between the two + signs. Tiny. Not very intersting... The next one is only two weeks later, and you can see the actual shape of a baby. The big hump in the middle of it is the baby's heart. My finger is simply there to hold down the page while I took a picture of it, I'm not pointing at anything of interest. Our next ultrasound won't be until January when we'll find out if it's a boy or a girl. Woo Hoo!!!! Stay tuned...

Joel's Mom and Brothers Visit

We had a blast with the family and went to a beautiful setting called Mear's Bluffs. Check these out!!!!








We maybe had too much fun acting like someone was falling off the bluffs, but luckily no one did and it was all in good fun. We also went to a natural spring that flows year round and is aptly dubbed "big spring".

Of course Joel's brothers Gabriel and Ernesto had to tease their mom, Rosa, and pretend to throw her in the freezing water!

They were only here for a short weekend, but we really enjoyed getting to spend time with them and catching up a little. Hopefully they'll be back before too long!
