Adding to the family

My sister is married and we have a new brother-in-law!! I can hardly believe it, but I am so so so happy for them. My sister looked radiant and I'm very sad that I did not get a picture of her in her wedding dress. However, I think I will be able to post their gallery from their photographer's site when it is ready.

So the weekend was craziness. Complete craziness. It seemed like we just kept running home to change into new outfits and sleep and then go somewhere else! The boys were so adorable in their tuxedos...Landon walked down with the flower girl and Liam walked down holding our hands. And of course Landon was in full character for the audience. He had the biggest grin you've ever seen as he walked down the aisle, then as he climbed up the stairs at the front he of course had to pick his wedgie, then he waved to someone (I think it was Uncle Mark), then he proceeded to make faces the whole time. I wish we could see his face on the video, but you can't. Kevin and I couldn't see his face so we didn't know what he was doing, but I guess he put on a real show. Meanwhile, I just sobbed through the whole thing!

So this picture was taken at the reception and so the boys already had their jackets off, but you can still tell how handsome they looked.



These are long time family friends that traveled all the way from Glenwood, Colorado for the wedding!
Me and Tiffany........looks like we like the same lip gloss and eye-make Tiff!

And drum rollllllllll please.................................we had one more in the wedding!!! Little peanut in my tummy!!! That's right folks we are prego with number three......yipee!!!!!! We will be eleven weeks tomorrow and we are due around Feb. 18th-ish. And I say that b/c I have never made it full term, so I think we may have an end of January baby. I will of course keep you all posted on my progress and the sex....we are definitely finding out:) We are super excited and we would love for you to keep the baby in your prayers. We had Landon btw week 31 and 32, so making it to at least week 36 is our biggest prayer request.

Oh wow, congrats!!! So awesome! How old is your oldest and your youngest right now? I am just trying to see the age spread between your kiddos.....

I hope to have another, but just not quite ready yet. But I don't want to wait too long either! :)

Congratulations Laura! What exciting news!!! As excited as Landon was about Avery, I'm sure he'll be very excited to have a new little sister or brother in his own family. :)
