Emery Kate at 28 weeks


Here is a picture of Emery's profile taken at 28 weeks! Isn't she so cute! I feel like we really got a good glimpse of her! Blake labeled everything if you are not good at reading sonos!
Also...a funny thing. The sonographer was saying that her mouth was open so she must be hungry! Blake and I laughed b/c he always makes fun of me that my mouth is always open, even when I sleep! Christy is the same way, and sometimes Jason. We can't close our mouth....it's why we always smile :)
Anyway...I think Emery must have some Sudan genes in there!!!

A Weekend to Remember


This weekend Blake and I went to the Family Life Weekend to Remember marriage conference. It was a wedding gift from the Murchison's and we were glad to use it before Emery comes. We had a great time. It was at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine. That hotel/conference center is HUGE. This picture is us by the "river walk" in the hotel lobby! The conference reminded me how thankful I am to be married to Blake!

Paul's 60th Surprise Party











Last weekend we headed down to Waco to celebrate Blake's dad's 60th birthday! All the kids and Debbie threw the surprise party at Uncle Dan's. It was fun! Blake's dad is such a sweet man and I think he enjoyed having all his family with him.

The day before we had a 28 week sonogram of sweet Emery! She was already 3 1/2 pounds and we got such a good picture of her face and profile. It made us so excited to meet her! I wish you all could have seen her sweet face! We tried to upload the profile picture of her, but it didn't work!

The Beginning!

Well, I am really excited to finally have my own blog! I love looking at other people's blogs and so I decided to start one of my own! Blake didn't know what we would write about until we had a baby, so I waited until then to start my own blog! Now I am due in April with our first child! We are having a little girl and naming her Emery Kate! We are so excited to be parents. I am a little scared, but can't wait to meet her! She is kicking and moving constantly which makes it even more real! I think I drive Blake crazy b/c I have him feel her move all the time! It is just so amazing!

Blake and I have been married almost 3 1/2 years! We were junior high (yes 7th grade!) sweethearts and after some off and on dating in high school, we stayed together all through college and got married after that! We have had such a great time being married. Blake is going to be the best dad! I can't wait to see him in that role! We have had so much fun working on the nursery and just getting our little home ready to house a baby! I will post pictures of the nursery when we get further along :)

Anyway, I am excited about blogging and will keep you updated on the pregnancy and everything! Blessings :)
