Birthdays!

Marie is back for her birthday weekend- also sharing her birthday is Tristan Dean (5) and Easton's was a few weeks prior (2 years old)!  We had a good time celebrating! 
So we have birthdays for Shane, Sean, Easton, Decker, Tristan, and Marie all in the same week!

Here is a photo of Tristan and Marie on their big day 

I thought I would post this because it was too cute.  This is Tristan helping me load the washer.  He was really serious about it and this is a candid photo.  hehe.

We survived the little girl screams at the Taylor Swift concert!

Wow that was a night to remember!  So many little girls pulling up in LIMOS and all decked out in glitter and glam to see Taylor Swift.  We had such a great time.  She put on an amazing show and it was worth every penny!  Good job to Michael and Tyler for taking Annie and I (I am sure it wasn't on their bucket lists!)  hehe.

Welcome Baby Decker! Our new Nephew!

Dustin and Audra welcomed Decker David Cox at 5:01 am on Friday, September 23rd.  7lbs 4 oz and 20 inches long!  He is absolutely precious!

Mommy and Decker!

Proud Grandmas!

Here is my view of my belly :)

Here is every one else's view:

We still don't know the sex of our baby- Ultrasound revealed that baby was sitting on those parts!  hehe.  It will remain a mystery!

Its been a year already??? p.s. HELLO belly!

We celebrated our one year anniversary by driving up to Council bluffs, IA/Omaha, NE for the weekend.  We had a blast playing blackjack, dog races, the zoo (amazing!) and eating of course!  Amanda's belly popped out on the 21st exactly- also the day she first felt little BC kick (for sure!)  It wasn't until that following Wednesday the movement was more frequent and without a doubt baby kicks!  Here are some photos to share!

current cravings:  2% milk with chocolate syrup, kraft macaroni and cheese, OREOS!

baby bump!

This tummy picture was taking between 16 and 17 weeks gestation.  Also posting our sonogram picture.  No peaking!  Still not finding out the sex!  Current Cravings:  Milk (now with chocolate), macaroni and cheese.  Still very very tired and napping all of the time!  I can't imagine doing this with a child already!  hehe.  Michael and I are making changes in our work schedules to make sure we don't need "night" childcare.  Looks like I'm staying on night shift and he is going to days!  Feeling really good about that decision! 

In a few weeks we will welcome our Nephew, Decker (Dustin and Audra's little boy) Due September 22nd!  Can't wait for that! :)  And our Nephew, Tristan (Chris' little boy) started his last year of preschool yesterday and will be 5 on September 25th!  Time sure does fly!

We are looking forward to the cooler weather in the next few months and can't wait to watch our baby grow!

Hello there Baby Cox!

Here is our 16 week ultrasound!  Such a miracle to see our baby for the first time!
