Catching Up, part 2

Belly getting bigger. This is 11 days before Ceres arrival.






















Yannie had a soccer tournament the weekend before Ceres birth. After seeing these photos I realized why people kept stopping me to ask about the baby.












































Beth and Shine came out to be in town for the birth. Since we were just waiting, we decided to head out one day to the sand dunes in Indiana. They were nice enough to dig me a hole in the sand so I could lay on my stomach for the first time in months.

Catching up. . . part 1

Well, needless to say, we had the baby and life's been forever changed. Here's a little catch up post of things that have happened since last March. We'll see if I can stay on top of posting from here on out. . . don't hold your breath. . .

Yannie's mom came to visit last March


















We took a pre-baby trip to New Orleans.
Mmmm. . .


























Headed out to see the wildlife.


























Leftovers from Katrina.





















We went to NJ for Yannie's 10yr high school reunion.




















And, in May, we took a trip to Tennessee to visit Liza's birthplace.


















This is the spot. . . no, it didn't happen in the bushes, there used to be a bus with small house attached in the middle of these trees.


















And, while staying in Nashville, we had to visit the Parthenon. . . weird. . .























Part 2 coming soon. . .

Babies! Again. . .

And this time, it's not fish babies! Yep, it's true. We waited until Christmas to tell anyone (3 months in), so don't feel bad if you found out late. In this photo, Liza is about 5 months along, with Baby due in mid-July. We look forward to sharing baby photos soon!
