It's a....

Baby Brother!!!

Meg had her ultrasound today and this is what we found. Pretty hard to miss, but yeah, it's a boy. All other parts are in functioning order as well. It was so good to see him.
He's a pretty active little booger, so we may be in for a crazy ride.
Please continue to pray that Meg feels great and baby BOY!!! continues to develop normally. We have been so blessed thus far and appreciate everyone's excitement.

We're having a BOY!!! (yes, I'm a little excited about that:)

Fall Fest

We took Katelin to her first real Fall Fest last Thurs (well, she went last year but how much can you do at 6mo's?). She was a monkey, both literally and figuratively. She had a blast!! Her favorite thing was the "fun house" which was just the slide covered in material, but she loved it anyways. She fished for a duck, raced a bat against a ghost (monkey against cowgirl) and won!! I think we are going to take her to a select few houses for trick or treating. Stay tuned to see.

Dad's Valve

My dad had to have his aortic valve replaced a couple of weeks ago. The surgery went great and he is now back home feeling better than before the surgery. Here are some pics of us the day before his surgery hanging out with fam. Katelin and Keslyn sure do love their grandad!!

It was so awesome to see the support of our family as they came from across the state to sit with us in the waiting room. Mema, Pa, Sandra (dad's sis), Charlie (dad's bro), Herb (mom's bro). My cousin Brian even came in from San Antonio after a long day at work to hang out with us.
It was amazing to see and feel the love and support of what seemed like the whole town of La Grange in the waiting room. There were about 18-20 of us taking up the waiting room, waiting for hours. I appreciate everone that prayed for my dad and mom as they went through this. It truly was a blessing to be around everyone during that stressful waiting time.

Spaghetti!!

Don't you julst love spaghetti!! Katelin obviously does. I just could not resist catching her with this face. I think she will appreciate it later.

Schlitterbahn

Katelin Meg and I went to the Galveston Schlitterbahn about a month ago and had an awesome time. We went at about 10am and stayed until 4pm. Katelin loved the entire time. She slid down the frog's red tongue several times and we were sooo proud of her to be able to clinb the stairs and do it by herself!! She loved sitting on my belly and riding the rapids on the lazy river. I think we wore her out... she did not last one minuteafter we put her in the car.

Patutis 2

That's right, Katelin's is going to be a big sister!!! Meg is 17 weeks along, starting to starting to show and feel the baby move. Patutis 2 is due for arrival March 23, 2008.
