Pictures of Shae!

Here's our baby girl! She gets cuter and sweeter each second! We love her!

Dax wouldn't even look at his new sister yesterday. It took him a while today, but eventually he took notice. He was so sweet and would rest his hand on her head. He kept saying, "eyes! nose! hair! so pretty!" Maybe he'll like her after all... but we aren't home yet so there's no telling what he'll be like!

Shae has joined us!

Brooke went into labor last night and she had our baby girl at 10:43 pm. The quick facts: Shae Bowen, 21 inches, 7 pounds 14 ounces. She has a fair amount of dark hair and she's quite adorable. Everyone is doing great. Lots of pictures will be following, likely tomorrow.

Here it is....

I'm pretty sure I won't be getting any bigger than this since we're on countdown mode. So, here it is... the belly!

I know, you're wondering if I'm going to explode! This is such a crazy time in pregnancy because I can't get the thought out of my head that at any moment my water could break, or with each contraction I wonder if it's the beginning of the REAL ones. Anyway, I'm excited, ready and waiting!

Happy Birthday to me!

Yes, I am now 30 years old! I know, crazy. Actually I always thought it would be a big deal but I don't really feel like it's a big deal! I guess I did wake up feeling older though because I happen to be quite pregnant and things are getting more and more difficult to do! I also have a bit of a cold coming on, so unfortunately I didn't wake up feeling completely energetic and psyched for the day. But I love birthdays and it's turning out to be great! My awesome husband got me some chocolate chocolate doughnuts and cold milk for breakfast.... YUM!!! Then I opened this amazing present!!!: I'm so excited for some great picture taking! I know I have a ton to learn about it so don't be expecting much too soon! I still have more to come today so I'm off to have lots of fun and have a me day!

Merry Christmas!

Photo Tag

I've been tagged to post my 4th picture in my 4th file. So, here it is. This is of one from a scuba trip in Bonaire (it's near Aruba). It's not a favorite of mine but I think it's cool that the fish blends in between the coral. We went in the fall of 2005 and it was fabulous! We could dive as much as we wanted whenever we wanted. I think we went on 13-14 dives and a couple of them were night dives. For interest sake here are a few others from the trip.

I tag... Shelby, Liz, Cori, and Tia
