2 weeks ’til D-day!

Well, we’re down to 2 weeks until my due date with this baby. And, just in case you’re wondering, we do have a name picked out and, no, we’re not telling 😉 We’re getting excited to meet our little one!

So, what do you think? Another 9 pounder in there? 🙂 I know it’s a little hard to compare with the different shirts…


Amelie’s 2nd Birthday Party!

September is turning out to be a busy month for our family. With the baby due this month, we’ll have three birthdays in September! We had lots of fun celebrating Amelie’s 2nd birthday–I can’t believe how much she has grown up and changed this past year. Where did my baby go? We celebrated with a small group of friends and family and enjoyed cake and the premier of the birthday video that Bryce and I put together for Amelie. She loves the video and has watched it countless times since the party. Here are some pictures of the big day.

Here's the cake I made and decorated. Bryce helped me come up with the design on the computer and then I tried to transfer it on to the cake. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out. It tasted good, too!

Amelie was thrilled to wake up from her nap and find a house full of balloons. And thanks Aunt Nicole and Claire for the terrific birthday banner!

Sometimes three balloons just aren't enough ;) And her birthday video was an instant favorite.
