4th generation
I am truly blessed to have three of my grandparents, Ella's great grandparents, still with us! They have been a huge part of my life and have taught me many valuable lessons along the way. I have shared so many special times and events with each of them, and I pray that our daughter will get to be a part of a world with them in it for as long as possible! I wish Ella could have met my Maw-Maw, she was such a beautiful and strong woman!

Ella has arrived....
Our precious little girl arrived on Tuesday November 11, 2008 at 10:37 pm weighing 7 lbs 12 oz and measuring 20 1/2 inches long. She is a healthy and happy little girl! God has definitely blessed our lives with this bundle of joy! We brought her home on my birthday, and I have to say she is the best birthday present I could have ever asked for!

Addie is growing...
And I am learning so much about being a mom by watching Addie, Shannon, and our mom! Wow, there is so much to it, and I can't wait!

A rough two weeks...
So lately Ella and I have had a run of bad luck! On Monday 10/13/08 I was in my first car accident...a guy ran a red light and hit the front of my car. Of course as soon as I got out of the car everyone, except the guy that hit me, started freaking out that I was pregnant. I called my doctor to see what I need to do to make sure baby Ella was okay, he had me go to the hospital to be monitored for 4 hours. Ella was doing great and I was just a little sore. Then the following Monday 10/20/08 I was done with patients and had just been to one body shop and going to another to get estimates when I was hit from behind by a big 18 passenger van! NOT FUN! I ended up hitting the car in front of me and he hit the car in front of him. The guy in the van was going way too fast, and I was just watching it happen out of my rear view mirror! Once again I called my doctor who sent me back to the hospital for monitoring! I now know the hospital staff rather well! The nurse said that Ella looked healthy and happy! That was wonderful to hear; however, you can imagine how emotional I was though....being 81/2 months pregnant with hormones soring and all this happening! I just couldn't bear the thought of something happening to Ella! All is well now, and I have gone one whole week without an accident!!! YEAH! I am pretty paranoid out on the road these days though! Now we are just waiting for all the insurance stuff to be handled and have the Tahoe fixed. Who knows how long all that could take!!! Please pray for safety for Ella and I on the road!!! She is one tough girl!

Austin Baby Shower - August 31, 2008
Mom, Shannon and Krista hosted a luncheon at Shan's house for my Austin ladies! It was so much fun to get these wonderful ladies together that I am friend's with, but that didn't really know each other before the shower! Each one of the ladies are very special, and I feel blessed to know each of them! Mom, Shan, Krista, and Jacque made some great food for us, and we all just got to sit around and chat! I had a great time! Baby Nate, Krista's little bundle of joy, even made a guest appearance!

A&M Season Opener...
Scott, Dad and I headed to College Station for the season opener. We met Brent, Lauren, and Mr. & Mrs. Krustchinsky in at Chedders for a late lunch before we headed to the game. It was a bit warm for this pregnant mama...even though the game started at 6pm and we had comfortable seats in the shade! However, it was nice to get to go to a game this year! And even though the score did not turn out like we would have liked....it was still a good time! Too bad the Aggies couldn't pull out a win for Dad's birthday!

2 Year Anniversary & Scott's Birthday
Scott and I celebrated our two year anniversary at Chez-zee's, which was wonderful! The past two years have flown bye....we have traveled a good amount, moved to a new city, changed jobs, made new friends, gotten pregnant, and both grown tremendously! The Lord has shown us how very blessed we are to have one another and this new life He is about to bring into the world.
We spent Scott's 37th birthday weekend at the Schulenburg Festival and in La Grange with great friends (Yvette, Chuck & Cameron Joyner, Roger & Bill Creager, and Larry Brown). Roger put on a fabulous show, like always, and Chuck and Yvette showed us the charm of La Grange!

20 weeks and it's a little girl...
I am a bit late in posting this to our blog, but since we have found out that we are having a girl I have been concentrating more on the nursery than anything else! Scott and I get more and more excited about our little girl coming into the world with each day that passes bye.
I think we are going to have an active one on our hands...she is already doing quite a bit of kicking. Scott was actually able to feel her kick for the first time about a week ago. We are now in our 24th week and I can't believe how fast it is going! She will be here before we know it!
