23 Weeks

Baby B is growing quite a bit. Sarah measured 25 centimeters at our 21 week appointment. He/she has been kicking quite a bit lately. Could we be in for a tax-break baby?

Greetings from the Womb

Here are some long-awaited photos from the 20 week ultrasound. Baby B wasn't very cooperative and kept squirming around when the technician was trying to take photos and get measurements.

Blowing bubbles?

Tiny feet.

Maddie the Dentist?

Maddie came to visit this past weekend and we all had a great time. I think she wants to be a dentist when she grows up.

Say "Ahhhhhh."

Time for a closer look.

Breaking Ground

So they finally broke ground on our new house. We will be sure to keep everyone updated on the progress. They are still waiting on the building permits from the county, but hopefully it will be ready for us to move in before Baby B's arrival in late December/early January.


Our nice wooded lot at the end of a cul de sac.

Bye bye trees, but thankfully not all of them. A good chunk of our backyard is actually an environmentally-protected area.

Winston and Annie checking things out before they poured the gravel for the foundation. First thing Annie did was take a leak in the new house... typical :-)

Congratulations Allison and Tyler!!!

Our good friends Allison and Tyler got married a couple of weeks ago and we wanted to extend our congratulations and best wishes.

The ceremony was held on campus at W&L in the historic Lee Chapel.

Their first dance was an amazing shag number which required a dress change and included a showstopper ending.

Not So Terrible Twos - Take Two

Congratulations to Baby B's Grandma Ayres on hitting the 2,222 milestone in her new ride!!!

First Purchase - Nursery Furniture

Sarah and I were inspired to start making some purchases after seeing Baby B during the 20-week ultrasound (photos coming soon) so we finally came to a decision on the nursery furniture. I sure hope Baby B likes it, because he/she is going to have it for awhile as it transitions into a toddler bed and then into a double bed.

Bend It Like Beckham?

While Sarah has been feeling Baby B poking around for awhile now, last night was the first night you could feel him/her kicking from the outside. Baby B has a pretty strong leg, I think we may need to start soccer lessons with Uncle Brad sooner rather than later.

Not So Terrible Twos

Yesterday my car hit quite the milestone, 222,222 miles!!! And yes, I'm a dork for getting excited about it. Time to start thinking about something a little bigger for Baby B, Winston & Annie.

This Old House

The house is officially SOLD!!! Our agent only had to sell it twice (long story) in this tough economy. The dogs have been quite anxious with all the boxes being packed up; Annie took to sleeping in the closet with the clothes just to make sure we didn't leave her behind. We have moved into a one bedroom apartment while our new house is being built, hopefully Baby B won't come too early :-)


Winston is all smiles about moving out, Annie isn't quite so sure.



Goodbye house, we will miss you!
