A quick 2011 update.

I got a new camera and until today, haven't been able to figure out how to upload the photos. So here is a tiny peak at what we have been up to . . .
We went to visit Carl's grandpa in Alabama.

Carl, Eli, and I celebrated my 30th birthday in Disney World!


Eli was so much fun. I will never forget how excited he was to see all the characters!



He loves Handy Manny and talked about him all day!




Walking down Main Street with Carl and Eli and seeing the castle lit up in front of us brought tears to my eyes. It is such a magical place to spend time with a little one and I feel so blessed that we were able to do it!





Eli was not ready to be home.


We celebrated at home too . . .



I went to Santorini with the family the night of my birthday . . .



And had lunch with Darci, Jill, and Dana, and . . .


sweet Taylor joined us too! She is such a doll!




And I had a birthday dinner with these sweet girls too (Nicole, Jessie, Andrea, Kim, Jamie and Sarah). It was my best birthday ever!



We also announced this Big news. We found out at Christmas that Eli is going to be a big brother!

Here I am at 16weeks. This picture is deceiving though, I am much larger after dinner! Ha! I ran into a girl from high school, and when I told her how far along I was she said, "Wow! You got big fast!"
Thanks. Good to see you too.
Anyway, we are excited. We are starting weekly shots to keep this baby growing 39wks this time. I have been feeling him (or maybe her, but I doubt it) kick a lot, which has made up for being sick so long. When I listened to his heart beat yesterday (150bpm) I could hear him flipping all around! We will be finding out what we are having very soon! Now that I have figured out how to download the pictures from the new camera, I will keep you posted!
