40 Days

The countdown is on!  Sam started this about 2 weeks ago.



We went fishing at 5 a.m. last Saturday with Megan's dad.  We didn't catch anything, but it was beautiful!



After fishing we went to Megan's nieces' last soccer game.  Ellie is on the left, Kate is on the left.  They were both pretty proud of their trophies.  (btw, Ellie & Kate belong to Emily &  Scott)


This is their youngest, Morgan.  She LOVES her uncle Sam!

Megan and Ellie share something in common--they both LOVE animals.  This is Ellie's latest pet--a horny toad named Parker.

The baby's room is coming along!  I'm sure the he won't care what it looks like, but I'm having fun.  I have a few more plans before it's finished.

Something New & Something Blue

Sam posted last (just yesterday), and as usual, he was NOT being serious.  We do have something new.

It's time to get ready for a baby!  A baby BOY to be  specific!!!  Here are a couple of things we have purchased lately to make our home a little more comfortable for the little guy.

We also purchased this crib bedding.  This, of course, is the promotional picture and our nursery doesn't look quite this cool yet.  We wanted to get something that was gender neutral in case the our next baby is a girl.  We also have a white crib and white changing table/dresser.  We'll post photos as soon as everything is set up, but that will probably be a few more weeks.  We've been trying to figure out if we can squeeze in a short scuba diving trip before the big day.  If not, I think hanging out in the baby's room will suffice!
