It's been awhile . . .

Hi All,
Well, it's been awhile since we updated the blog, so we've got a few pics to show you. It's been a fun, but busy last month. We're all doing well and excited for the holiday season to come! Baby Pidge is doing great and growing lots. We are getting excited for her arrival and working on preparing her room. Can't wait for the holidays! Katie LOVES this time of year, so we're gearing up to make lots of fun memories.
Here are a few pics from the last month! Enjoy!

John's mom came for a visit. She saw the house for the first time, so naturally we did some fun shopping and decorating! We went to IKEA and found this cool room divider to divide our room from the baby's room. It looks great - thanks bunches Momma Pidge!
Some more decorating. We needed curtains - IKEA to the rescue!
Same here.
YES!!! WE HAVE A DISHWASHER!!!!! Katie was VERY excited about this. So, here's John knocking out the cabinet where the dishwasher will go!
And Katie helping with the demolition - she liked it a little too much :)

The finished product!!! Love it!Weekend trip to AZ to see Katie's family. It was a great time and we miss them tons!Katie with her Grandma Jo (Katie's Great Grandma) & Grandma. It's so nice when we come out to AZ to visit because Terri always has everyone over for dinner and visiting, so we get to see them all (all being- grandparents, aunt, uncle and cousins)! Thanks so much everyone for taking the time to come and visit, we love you!Sunday we found a "Diners Drive-In's and Dives" restaurant (we're obsessed with these places) near Katie's parents house, so we went there for lunch.Inside the restaurant. What a great pic except the goofy guy in the background :)

Katie and her daddy!Katie's dad being silly waiting for the food . . . he made a bow tie out of the plastic that the silverware came in. Now we know where Katie gets her humor :) (love you dad!)John boy standing guard waiting for the signal that the food is ready!!The food arrived. It was good, but not the best we've had, but boy did we have a fun time! "O" John . . .

After we got back from AZ, our closet doors were in so John installed them! Yay for closet doors! It makes the room look so much bigger!
And lastly, let's not forget the baby! This is just shy of 21 weeks - it's flying by.

Oh Boy . . . It's a GIRL!!!

Well, we have a little girl on our hands! We had an ultrasound on Friday and that made things sooooooo real. You could see her so well. She is healthy and looks to be growing strong. She was very busy moving and kicking, the technician had to keep chasing her around - it was amazing. There are a few pictures below! We are so thankful to the Lord for this blessing and are excited to meet her.

Looks like she's blowing bubbles :)
Close up.
The famous "shot" . . . definite girl!
