Lots of activity!

Orion has survived his first bath with Mom and Dad, we are lucky he was patient with us. He also got to watch his first Badger game with his Dad. It was a lot of activity so he had to nap in his bouncy seat.

Meeting more of the family

Orion has had the chance now to meet the Miller Family and "Auntie" Sarah and baby Samo. Baby Samo was kicking when Sarah was holding Orion!

And it's a...

boy!!! We named him Orion Anthony Holmes and he weights 8 lbs. 6 oz. and is 21 1/2" long. Mom and Orion are doing great! Dad, well that's another story. More pics to come.

5 more days???

When we first heard we were due on Christmas Day it seemed so far away, now it's only 5 days away! We keep telling the baby everyday to just hurry up and get here, we really want to meet this little one. I guess we are getting our first lesson in patience! I leave work every night and tell everyone that I hope I don't see them the next day....and of course I am right back there the next morning. It's getting quite uncomfortable to sit at my desk all day long and I can hardly concentrate on what I am doing because all I can think about is this baby.

Someone recently told me that I don't look like I am 9 months pregnant and she became my favorite person in the world....then in the same conversation she also told me that I needed to adjust my attitude because I was crabby......not my favorite person anymore. I just told her I would remember those words for someday in the future when she is 9 months pregnant!!!

2 weeks to go!

Here is the last belly picture, I am looking forward to being able to put pictures of the baby on here and not my belly anymore! We have the baby's room almost all done, and even have a bag packed ready to go. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and was told that the head is now down but there is really nothing else happening and the doctor was almost sure he would see me at my next appointment on the 17th. We of course would like to have the baby before that but since we have no control over that we are not getting our hopes up. We are hoping that the baby doesn't decide to come on one of these winter wonderland days that we have been having.
