It's never too late for the first update!

Hello everyone!

It's been over a year and wow, things have changed. Caleb is a spunky, energetic, almost 17 month old BOY! He loves outside, farming with daddy, and destruction! He has changed so much over the last 1 1/2 years it's hard to believe. He's is growing big and preparing to be a BIG BROTHER. While he doesn't completely understand whats to come he knows where to look when we ask him "Where's the baby?" Sometimes he lifts up his own shirt and looks at his belly so we have to explain, nope... the baby is in Mommy's belly. :) He also loves to give the baby kisses.


To give a quick update of this baby/pregnancy, we found out at the end of April about this upcoming addition, right before all of Ben's medical issues arose. (That is another story for another day if you don't already know). Due to Ben's stuff and a very busy summer at work the early parts of this pregnancy flew by. We are already at week 30, with only a few more short weeks to go. We are expecting this little one very close to Christmas, so holiday plans this year will be very flexible and unplanned. Who knows, we may be celebrating the holiday in our hospital room! So far all check ups have turned out perfect and this little one is a growing, moving little bugger. For those of you that don't know, we did not find out the sex of the baby so it will be our Christmas surprise!

The reason I've been meaning to get an update in is because we plan to use this blog to keep updates available for anyone interested when the big time comes. It will be a very busy time of year for all but an exciting one none the less. Hope you guys all enjoy our journey to meet our new arrival.
