Ben & Sarah are off to the hospital!

It's been a long journey, but Ben and Sarah are very close to welcoming their first child into the family!  We are quite excited for them, and can't wait to meet the newest cousin for Emilie and Pete!

Pete went to the Dr. today for his 2mo checkup.  He's 9 weeks old today, and is growing up!  He weighed just over 13lbs, and got his TDAP and other fun shots that I don't think he enjoyed too much.  He's still not sleeping through the night, but is getting more adjusted to it every day.  He's a great little baby though...almost never cries.  He's gotten very good at tossing out smiles these days too!  Needless to say, we love those.

Update...as of 10:47 p.m., Ben and Sarah are the very proud parents to Anna Struthers Edwards!  Little Anna took a while to get here but finally made it, and is healthy and happy.

Getting old...

The old man turns 34 today, and the wife was nice enough to surprise me with a little birthday party last night!

House renovations coming?

We are in the process of possibly renovating our downstairs to allow for a much more open floor plan, and make use of the wasted space that is currently the dining and living room.  In doing that, I took some photos of our current house, that I thought I'd put up there.

coming in our back door...foyer and living room.

Pete's first smile that is captured...

via AM's iPhone...he's certainly smiled before, but I believe this is the first one recorded.
