Month: July 2009

http://twitpic.com/ane3y – Here is our equipment for the events today. Looking for smooth valleys to signal contractions.

All checked in and now have some wireless monitors hooked up. Baby’s heartbeat sounds strong.

On our way to the hospital. Running pretty much on fumes at this point in the morning.

Tomorrow is the day! Andrew is coming… check back here for updates.

http://twitpic.com/aldc8 – Today Andrew received a nice gift from the Accting/Finance staff at GT. Thanks!

Uncle Claude and Abigail helped me with Andrew’s room today.

Here is a painting done by Uncle Jason:

This is a quilt given to us by Uncle Sam. It’s been in the family a very long time. The quilt squares tell the Mother Goose nursery rhymes: .

Well we finally got our blog running again- it’s been almost a year! Sorry about the disappearance.

Abigail is almost 2 now. She turned 22 months yesterday. We are expecting a baby boy this week.

We are doing well. We are loving living in Eugene. It’s a lot of fun. We enjoy having family just 10 minutes away. We feel very settled here. We are really enjoying living in South Eugene. We are so close to so many parks. Abigail and I are always heading off with the stroller to one. It’s great exercise and a lot of fun.

Here’s a picture of the three of us on the 4th of July:

And another of us cherry picking:

Abigail just loves fruit- we have taken her strawberry picking, cherry picking and raspberry picking. As you can see from her cherry stained face, her favorite part is eating while we pick.

Kyle has taken up running- here he is doing the Butte to Butte on the 4th:

Abigail just loves cheering on her dad. She hasn’t stopped talking about the race yet. Abigail and I did the last part of the Butte to Butte. She loved seeing all the runners and all the action.

Here are some more pictures of her:

One of her favorite pastimes – going to parks:

She loves the water- if there is water anywhere she runs to it and gets soaked:

We just finished swim lessons last week:

Here we are at Salt Creek Falls:

I hope everyone is enjoying summer. We will post more soon.
