I can’t believe we’ve already had Christmas!  And can you believe we’re getting ready to start a whole new year?  Where does the time go?

Rob’s mother and step father came to spend Christmas with us this year, and boy did we have a great time.  The kids really enjoyed seeing their Grandma and Grandpa – and their dog Star.  We had many great meals, watched the kids play, and truly enjoyed each other’s company. Our only regret is that they couldn’t have stayed longer.  We surely hope we get visited by the other grandmas and grandpas out there soon!

I added new pictures, almost 200 of them!!!!!  Can you believe it? I added them this morning, so make sure to check them out.  I also added 3 pics to the left, one is of Rob and I at the Marine Corps Ball in November, and the other two are the kids’ winter school pictures.

So far so good with the pregnancy – I’m about 13 weeks along now, not quite half way there.  I’m definitely starting to show already and we’re very excited. We are hoping to find out the sex in the next month or so. We’ll surely keep you updated!

Have a happy new year everyone – we’ll check back in and update everyone on our life next year!
