Happy New Year!

I really don't have any New Year's resolutions to make but WOW! 2009 is definitely going to be a year full of new adventures! Brian and I are going to learn so much in the coming months! I think the ticker seems to be moving very quickly these days... 78 days!!! I really can't believe how fast this is all going. We have 11 weeks to go as of tomorrow (to the due date anyway). Brian has started working in the baby's room and this weekend, hopefully, he will have it ready for a crib and decorations. He has ripped up carpet and taken down closet doors and shelves and is painting... it was a mess. After it's all done, I will post the before and after pictures.

As for the baby... he's doing great! I'm feeling him move more and more each day and he is definitely getting stronger and stronger=). We have another appointment on the 8th and we will start childbirth classes on the 13th or the 20th.

Brian and I are doing well also. Brian is still working hard everyday and spends most of the day outside... I really don't know how he does it! He was outside all day yesterday and it was only 3 degrees (not including wind chill). BURRRR!!! Praise the Lord he is getting another four day weekend this weekend!

For unto you

is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Luke 2:11

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!!

It's a....

BOY!!!

We had another appointment yesterday and thanks to a cancellation in the dr's schedule we were able to do the ultrasound last night. I apologize for not posting pictures but my placenta is in front of the baby and the face pictures didn't come out very clear. Everything looked great with the baby! It was such a blessing to hear the dr say, "that looks good, that looks normal..." Since I don't have any ultrasound pictures for you I will just post a couple pictures from Thanksgiving Day. The first picture is everyone that was at the ultrasound last night, except Brian's mom (because she is in Kentucky).
