Another sneak preview of a coming attraction!!!

So another week, another trip to the doctor to check up on Beth and Baby Kate. Mom's doing good, but having all the usual fun that we've had before. Baby Kate is just plain doing good. We got a chance to see her and get some decent pictures (for an ultrasound at least).

Here's a nice shot of her face (tilt your head to the right and look the right side of the image to see her face). We think she's taking after Owen, but only time will tell.


Next one is a profile. Her button nose is toward the middle, and her forehead to the top right of the picture.


Another profile, this time with her hand or arm in front of her mouth.

Can't wait to meet her in person.....well OK, we'd prefer to wait for a few more weeks. :-) But we are definitely excited for what's to come!

Walkin the walk...

If you've been reading my blog, then you've seen previous posts about our friend Katie and her family and the Avon Walk that Beth did last year. Its hard to believe a year has gone by.

Her sisters (and a friend of theirs) are participating in a walk of their own. Below are the details. If you feel like helping them, please follow the link and help them all get to their $2200 min goal. Its a great cause, matched only by all the great memories.

Yesterday was the year anniversary of our sister's death. It
was with heavy hearts that we completed our training walk for the Breast Cancer
3-day. We decided to take part in this physically and emotionally challenging
event to honor Katie and all those who fight breast cancer so that nobody else
has to feel the pain we've all felt for the past year. We are doing it to save
every mother, sister, daughter and friend. To participate in the Breast Cancer 3
Day each member of our team must raise $2200. This money goes towards Susan G.
Komen for the Cure to fund the critical research being done to end cancer all
together. We know we've asked for your help a lot this year, but please consider
supporting us once again either finacially, emotionally, or through prayer. Or-
Better yet- walk with us! We each have to raise $2200, so please give to the
team member with the least amount of money.

Thank you again for your help - as Katie would say - "Our cup
runneth over.." We are very grateful to have the love of each of you carrying us
through life.

Throwing Love-Colleen, Maggie and Sarah (and Mandy,
our 4th teammate and great friend! )

Home Studio Day

With a new SLR to try out for home pictures, and Connor's family trying out their own SLR and some new photo backgrounds, we figured we try doing our own Easter photos. Here's some of the results.... not too shabby for amatuers, but its hard to do poorly with subjects as cute as this.....
