Ryan and I have decided to start this blog now that our family is expanding. We are expecting our baby any day now. Our vision with this blog is to keep our family informed of this new phase of life with pictures, video, and stories. This is in the beginning stages. We have lots to learn and lots to add. So save this link on your bookmarks and look forward to fresh material.

Induction Day

Still no baby,

So now it's time for me to get induced.  The moms are coming to town this afternoon and we are going to have good Italian dinner before I get checked in around 8pm.  It sounds like that will be the last meal until I have the baby.  I have been reading online about induction experiences, they range from horrible to great.  I hope ours falls somewhere towards the great end.  I have to admit, I am very nervous.  What keeps me going is thinking about seeing the baby and seeing Ryan's reaction to that.  It will be a moment to all ways remember. 

Wish us luck,

Ella video

 


Here is some action footage of Ella Horvat's soccer game this fall. She is the blonde with the green jersey #2 on.

Logan video




This footage was taken 2 days before Logans 5th b-day.  Logan has a lot of spunk which you can see in this video.  He all ways has a smile!!



Introducing Micah the dog


Here are some snapshots of our dog, Micah.  Ryan and I feel fortunate to have found such a great pal.  He has brought lots of joy to our lives since we adopted him 4 1/2 years ago. 

This footage was taken by Ryan.  I think it really shows off Micahs personality.
