Hunter's Video (first edit)

Meeting Hunter Rose

This little angel is my Neice. She is two days old. 

She is perfect, beautiful, sweet, cuddly and a very good learner!

Mommy is teaching her all sorts of things, but most important is how to breastfeed. Though we have some breathtaking photos of her skills, I won't be sharing them with the internet world. What I can say is that her mother, my amazing sister Brandi, is such a calm, loving teacher and Hunter Rose is learning quickly and enjoying her proud parents' love!

Those of us who could be there (though many others wanted to) waited anxiously for Hunter's arrival.

It felt like FOREVER before we heard the great news:

We waited with video and still cameras ready

The proud grandmother's enjoying the birthing photos from Bryan

Nana and Pop-pop have their first GRANDDAUGHTER!

I am in love!

19 Weeks

This is what I look like this week.

This is what the baby looks like this week.

Baby's now the size of a Mango!
Baby has become amazingly mobile (compared to me, at least), yawning, hiccupping, rolling, twisting, kicking, punching, sucking, and swallowing. And baby is finally big enough that Eric and I have be able to feel some of the movements!


Our last ultrasound confirmed that we are having a second BOY. What was also clear is that our little guy is long and lean, healthy and stubborn. He had his arm across his face and was face down in the placenta, so we didn't get great photos even with a lot of twisting and poking to make him move. It was wonderful to see him though!

Noah's Happy

Last Friday we decided, last minute, to go for a walk down town and have dinner.

Noah looks extra happy, wouldn't you say?

What could possible make him soooo happy?

1. Daddy was with us

2. We brought the car

3. We forgot a stroller

4. Daddy runs FAST!

 Sometimes, too fast for mommy's comfort

Sisters

What a blessing it is to have a sister. In my case, I actually now have two! What's even better is that my big sis and I are pregnant together. She is exactly 20 weeks ahead of me. I hope we can get another good shot of our baby belly's before little Hunter comes next Wednesday. I am 17.5 weeks here and she is 37.5 weeks along.

Maybe one day we will have a photo of all three sisters with baby bellies. Wouldn't that make for some proud grandparents and a great photo!

Oh, Happy Day

When Noah is outside...

...its a HAPPY DAY!

All toys are short lived.
