Riley Klare





Riley is here!!! She entered the world today at 2:51 pm, weighing in at 8 lbs 9 oz and measuring 21 1/2 inches in length. Carla was induced this morning and things went pretty smoothly. We spent some time at the hospital this evening and both Mom and baby are doing well. Riley is so pink and so pretty!!

Whirlwind of a Weekend

Boy, this weekend flew by! And when I consider that we have no more than 6 weekends left as a "couple only family" it really hits home!! We can't wait!!

I had two baby showers this weekend to go to, which were both GREAT!! Aunt Averi (I know how much you love me calling you that) is expecting a little boy Nov 1. For those of you freaking out that I have a pregnant aunt, it's really not that weird. My uncle is only like 8 years older than me and Averi is just a few years older than me. So no, I don't have a 45 year old aunt having a baby (unless Betsy has something to tell me!). On Sunday, my friend Kendy from church had her shower. Baby Boy Ryder is expected sometime around Oct 23...babies everywhere!! Her shower was awesome, too. Both of these ladies hit the jackpot! It looked like Toys R Us!

Yesterday evening was the best part of the weekend. Kristin Bednarz came by to do maternity pictures. I've known Kristin and her family for quite a while and babysat her girls when I was in High School. If you have not heard of Kristin, she is an AWESOME photographer. God has given her a true gift and boy does she use it! She has a way of making you relax and have a good time. It was fun catching up with her...just hearing all that she does with her girls makes me tired! They are sports fanatics!!! You can view some of the amazing photographs that she took HERE.

Then, last night, Dustin and I finally ate at Pei Wei. It was crowded, but WOW, totally worth the wait. The food was awesome!!! Hope everyone else had a fun weekend...Happy Monday!

Taylor's Nursery








We are not totally finished with Taylor's nursery, but we are getting close! Sandy, a friend that I use to work with, painted the walls and did a wonderful job!!! It looks so great! I keep walking by and looking in...I can't believe she'll be here within 6 1/2 weeks!
