Another wonderful reason to love the number 3

We are so excited to finally share that we are expecting baby #3 in our family! I am 12 weeks along, and expect our little one to arrive in August (sharing a birthday month with Maddie). I've been super sick, so it's been a rough couple of months. Here's to hoping the next several months are pregnant bliss! Ha! We are so thankful to God for this precious gift.



Here's a shot of me and my prego sister :) She's due 3 months before me!

A reason to celebrate 3

My baby Marin turned 3 this month, and she is changing by leaps and bounds every week. Man, I can't believe I've been a mom for three whole years, that we've lived in Portland that long and been in our house that long. Time flies when you are living your dream :)

Kyle made her a "princess cake" by request, and she was fully spoiled by all the people who made her feel special on her big day/week.

And here's Marin using her new camera, to capture her arranging skills. This is what happens when two engineers breed children!!

Holiday news

We were snowed in for Christmas this year! What a treat, this meant lots more time together as a family. Marin and Maddie got some special gifts too, including a train set, red play kitchen and did I mention the snow?















Happy belated New Year to you all!







Man, after the holidays, I'm pooped!! I just crumpled in a lump right on the couch.
