So the news is out - we found out last week the Lord is blessing us with a baby girl! As of last week she weighed in at 14 ounces and was healthy in every way. We are so excited to be able to experience having a girl. I was honestly thinking our baby was going to be a boy. It wasn't really a feeling or differences in pregnancy, I just assumed we would have a boy since we already have one. It took me a few days for it to really sink it that our baby was a she - I tend to say "he" when talking about our babies before we know! Josh was more convinced it was a girl though and he was right! So now we are thinking about nursery ideas and clothes, she will be a winter baby so thats quite a bit different from Ryan, who was born during the hottest summer on record!

I thought I could do multiple posts for all the things we have had going on, or I could do one post and hopefully get everything in without making it too long! We have had a busy summer and although I've written about most of it, the last month or so has still been really busy!
Josh and I celebrated our second anniversary on Ryan's 1st birthday, but we hadn't had a chance to go out and celebrate, just the two of us. So last week, when my mom came to visit for a couple of days we took the opportunity to go on a date! We just went to dinner, but it was so nice to spend some time just the two of us, we are always grateful for those moments!

Last week, Ryan and I also got to go home for what will probably be our last vacation before baby girl arrives! I wanted to have a chance to celebrate his birthday with family and although we missed Josh, who wasn't able to go, we enjoyed having a small birthday party for him. Josh did get to participate in the birthday party through skype so he got to see Ryan open his presents and eat his birthday cake.
We had a great time on our little vacation and Ryan and I flew home Wednesday night and. I'm thinking 12 months is possibly one of the more difficult ages to fly with. On all of our previous trips, he has done great, he sleeps during the whole flight. This time, he did not! He was tired but wanted to move all over the place. By the time he finally fell asleep we only had about 20 minutes before we landed. He was so tired though he slept through the entire process of everyone getting off the plane.
I am always terrible at keeping up with picture taking but I managed to get a few while we were on our trip.
