Visitors!










So far the family has been in town since Wednesday. We have done a lot of fun stuff. We went to Navarre beach for the day. We went bowling(Allie's favorite), to the water park, to the aquarium and to the pool. The guys went golfing today. Cole decided it was way too hot around the 5th hole. We also went shopping for baby furniture! Yay! Everyone was so nice and helped put everything together. It looks great thanks to all of their hard work! Mom has been busy in the kitchen. She made us a big fried chicken dinner the other night and tonight she is making a lot of Joe's favorites. This is only the beginning. We still have a few more days left so I will post more photos at the end of the week!!!

Updates

Well big news! Natalie had her baby. He was born on the 19th and the very next day Natalie's sister Diana had her baby. We are still trying to get the old apartment cleared out and cleaned up. Hopefully tomorrow will be the last day for that!
Our house is just about finished. We have a few things left to put away. We are having some of our friends over on Saturday night for a cookout so things should be done by then.
Mom, Roger and the kids are coming next Wednesday to visit. Joe classes up next Thursday. So that's it from over here!
Bye!

It's a Boy!


Well after 5 months of pondering, and endless guessing we found out today that we're having a boy! The nurse at the hospital said that he was going to be trouble. He was moving around so much the entire time, it took her forever to get the pictures she needed. Bad news though, Aunt Aggie's formula didn't work for us. According to that it should have been a girl. I guess these things are just meant to be a surprise. So here's a picture of his profile. I think this picture looks like the Alfred Hitchcock baby. Four monthes to go!

New House!


Well we went back and forth about moving. Finally we made up our minds and decided to go ahead and do it. Right now we are in the process of moving from the apartment to the house. It's really amazing just how much stuff you can pack into a little apartment! The house is great. It's got 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. A big living room, kitchen and a garage. We hope you can all come down and see it before we move again!

Trip to IN!







Our vacation was really great. We started it with a trip to the Atlanta aquarium. It is really neat there. We got to see all kinds of things!
After the aquarium we went to Kiawah to visit. We had a good time laying in the sun and Joe did a little golfing. So then we made the long drive back to Indiana. It was great. We got to see everyone. I went to a baby shower for Natalie. She's due at the end of the month! We had a good 4th of July. Joe and Abby went crazy at the fireworks place. The two of them along with Roger and Paul put on quite a show for the rest of us! We spent the rest of the time visiting with everyone. Thanks to moms and grandma's we aquired some of our first baby things. We tried them out on Lily.
We were sad to leave, but now we are getting some visitors in just a couple weeks!

Stand By!

Please stand by for exciting news from the doctor, house news and pictures from our visit home!
We'll be making calls around 3 or 4 so we'll talk to you soon!
