First blog entry!

Well, it's official we are in the BLOG world! We are so behind the times---no facebook, no myspace, and no blog until now. We thought this would be a great way to keep family and friends updated on our growing family. The only thing that seems to be growing these days is my belly! I am 25 weeks pregnant with a little baby girl. Erik and I are very excited to become parents. We have decided on the name Kate. Baby Kate will be making her debut towards the end of November and we couldn't be happier.

Erik and I do not have much experience with little babies. I am very familiar with the needs, wants, and demands of 6 year olds; but an infant is another ballgame. Luckily, we have been getting some hands on practice with sweet Baby Noah. Courtney and Kevin have been letting us in on the secrets of dealing with a newborn. We (or should I say I) have been changing diapers, feeding, burping, and loving on Noah. Erik has been very hands on as well. We are trying to learn all that we can before our precious baby Kate comes into the world.

I was told to wrap this up by my darling husband. Here is a sneak peek of baby Kate. This picture was taken towards the beginning of the summer. We go back for another ultra sound in a couple of weeks, and can't wait to see how she has grown. She should be around 12 inches and over a pound--what a big girl!

Thanks for reading!
