Upward Soccer First Practice!

Nolan's very first day of sports in his little life and daddy is his coach!

Happy Anniversary!

Forgot to mention that today is Mark and my 8th wedding anniversary! He has very special plans for me that we'll celebrate sometime after Easter. I love my wonderful honey who is the very, very BEST husband in all the world! Happy Anniversary Mark! His gift to me today was to let me take a wonderful nap while he was home for lunch - ahhhhhhhh! Oh, and it happens to be Registered Dietitian Day which always happens on our anniversary... isn't that weird?

Beautiful Wednesday

It's so gorgeous outside - sunny and high of 72 degrees! So glad the harsh (for us) winter is over! Nolan started his very first sport ever yesterday - Upward Soccer with his Daddy, Coach Storms as his head coach! Nolan loved every minute of it and we enjoyed it immensely too. It was their first practice. They have next week off for spring break and then practice once a week with their first games starting the Saturday before Easter. I took some wonderful pictures and I will post them as soon as I get them on the computer... my goal is to work on that today. I was just thinking that I need to keep up with the blog for the relatives who are not on Facebook. Sorry, family! I'm turning over a new leaf just for you! Please forgive me.... Anyway, Caleb is doing great - growing into a linebacker and loves to eat :) He is a cuddly baby who is a joy to have and hold - what a blessing!

Caleb Andrew is here!

Oh, I'm soooooo behind on the blog! Caleb is 7 weeks old today and is such a joy. What a precious little man who keeps us on our toes. He goes from content to very loud crying pretty quickly! He's overall pretty content and is starting to be more expressive - so sweet! He was born on November 24th at 10:57 pm at 7 lbs 2 oz. He was born 6 days before the induction date because he was ready to come out.... I was in labor but my body was not progressing the way it needed to and my OB was hesitant to push the induction medication because of my scar from a prior c-section with Nolan so we ended up doing another c-section but I've healed great! The Lord has so provided for us all and gave us a wonderful new son - thank you for your prayers!!

Sorry it's been so long!

Wow, I just realized how long it's been since I've updated my blog. I'm so plugged into Facebook, the poor blog is getting put on the back burner..... anyway, 2 weeks from Monday is the big induction date as long as baby Caleb behaves and stays in the cooker! Been feeling pretty good overall except the expected tiredness that comes from being this pregnant and not sleeping well at night (bad back, sore hips, etc, etc). We are getting so excited! Nolan is thrilled too :) Mark has been working like a madmad getting the Christmas concert ready to go and we do have a number if things to do around the house.... oh, well, are you ever really ready?? Thank you for your prayers!
