Beckett will be here tomorrow!

Here is a picture from today, the day before Beckett arrives. I am so grateful that I am feeling so good. He is definitely pushing on my ribs pretty hard at times but I am trying to soak up the last few moments of those incredible feelings. We are so excited and can't wait to meet him! Pictures will be up as soon as we can get them there. Please keep us in your prayers.

Maternity Pictures

Monday we got together with our friend Jay to take some maternity pictures before Beckett arrives. Emerson is not one who likes to take pictures, but she did pretty well and I think we got some good ones. There are quite a few, so here is a link you can go to and see all of them. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=181955&id=598977703&l=9b53e547a1




Here's one for a sneak peek:

It' s hard to believe he will be here in 6 days (Jan. 26th), but we are so excited and can't wait to meet him.Please keep us in your prayers as this transition will be interesting at times. Emerson seems ready and excited but we will see!

Emerson's 3rd Birthday Party

Emerson got to have her birthday party on her actual birthday this year. We did a Dora party. She did so much better than last year and actually enjoyed opening presents. How nice! We kept it small since that is what best suits her and I think she had a really good time.

Her "soccer shoes". She wants to wear them ALL the time. If you ask her to get her shoes she says, "They're not shoes, they're soccer shoes!" And when she and her Daddy play soccer she has to have them on. Too cute!

The loot

Not all that excited about blowing out the candles. Too much attention!

Attacking the cake!

The best cousins ever!

Emerson's Artwork

Emerson has been taking fewer naps lately. She has learned that she at least has to stay in her room and rest/entertain herself for a little while. Well, Thursday was one of those days. She had not been able to go to sleep so she found a way of entertaining herself alright! Somewhere in her closet she came upon a purple marker and proceeded to draw...on everything!

Her Mimi is quite proud of her skills. Her Dad and Mom on the other hand don't really care how good the drawings might be.

Everything seemed to clean up well and hopefully she understands now that this will never happen again! Let's hope so at least!

By the way, we have had quite a few laughs. It is pretty funny!
