Snow, Snow, and More Snow

Here are some pictures of our big Christmas snowstorm.


This is round one of Matt snow blowing the driveway yesterday. You can see in the tracks how deep it is. Matt also had to do the driveway again later yesterday when a little more snow fell and then the plows finally came through around noon and the end of the driveway got filled in.

Rocky and Lexis had lots of fun watching Matt clear the driveway.


Rocky and Lexis are loving playing in the snow in the back yard.


Here is round two of Matt clearing the deck and driveway this morning of the snow that fell last night. You can see how much more we got again overnight. Unfortunately the belt on our snow blower snapped this morning halfway though the driveway, but our kind neighbor let us borrow his so Matt could finish the driveway in time to get to church.

Belly Pictures

Here are some belly pictures at 22 weeks.


These are a couple pictures of me in a sweater that my mom found a pattern for and a nice lady in their congregation made for me. It is very warm and comfortable.


Lexis has started smelling and kissing my belly this past week. I think she is starting to notice something is changing.

My sister Lauren took these pictures of Matt and I when she was staying with us before heading home to Oregon.

Christmas Pictures

Here are some pictures we took at church on Sunday in front of the tree.


Here is the Pudell family.

Here is a picture of Matt and I with Rocky and Lexis. Deb bought them outfits for Christmas. They pretty good sports about it.

Baby News

We are at the half way point in the pregnancy now (20 weeks).
These are the newest belly pics this week.


We had our big ultrasound this week. We were very excited and happy when we found out we are having a boy. We were even happier to learn that evreything is normal and he is very healthy and growing right on track.
Here are a few pictures of our little one.


This is his profile and his face.


Here is a picture of his toes and one of his feet.

This was our favorite picture. He was doing bicycle kicks over his head during the ultrasound so you can see his legs kicking above his head.

This was one of the 3-D images they showed us of the baby.

Matt's Birthday

Here are some pictures from Matt's Birthday a few weeks ago.


We had our friends Becca, Evan, their daughter Cora, Rachel, Joel, their daughter Addie, and Anna, Steve, and their daughter Nyla over for cheese and chocolate fondue. Everyone loved the fondue and had lots of fun.

Cora was hanging out with mom and dad checking out the big people food.

Addie was having a good time running around.

Nyla was very cute after her daddy had a little "accident" with his chocolate.
