Another Belly Picture!!!

This picture is not quite 33 weeks. Jen is by far the cutest pregnant woman that has ever lived, and I have proof!

Jen's Birthday

My amazing wife had her 24th birthday this past Sunday. Sadie and I got her a nice wallet to go with her new purse, and I "cooked" her breakfast "in bed" (it was just fruit and she was already out of bed...so maybe that doesn't count...) After church Jen, her family, and I went to one of her favorite restaurants, Papasito's (one of my favorites too!).

Here is the family (Grammy flew down from Maine for Christmas, but came early enough to see Jen on her birthday!)



Somebody ratted Jen out about it being her birthday!

Baby Shower

Jen had her first baby shower awhile back (and keeping with the trend of this website, I decided to wait really long to bring you pictures!) The baby shower was awesome! Jen and I really enjoyed ourselves and everything was perfect, just like our little Sadie!

This is a VERY cute hanging picture to put in Sadie's room. These will be the colors of her nursery! This was made by Sadie's Aunt Jackie!



The diaper cake! (Lots of great stuff in this thing!) Thanks Meghan and Aunt Jeannine!



The setup (a baby shower wouldn't be complete without punch, cupcakes and quiche...I mean...steaks and beer...and, poker and stuff)



The Grandma-to-be pinning the corsage on the Mommy-to-be



I'm downing the punch (I mean beer!)

Lake Conroe Real Estate Website

I got my real estate license in August and have been working for months to get a (working) website to advertise my business. My first attempt was using Mac's built in program iWeb to easily create a great looking website. The look was pretty good, but the problem was that iWeb is structured to be a simple tool, but sacrifices searchability (search engines like Google look for certain aspects of a website for it to be one of the top searches. Mine didn't have those aspects). So, starting from scratch and also studying up on SEO (Search Engine Optimization), I've come up with a completely new design and also, hopefully, a website that will compete with the other top websites here in the Conroe area (primarily lakeconroerealty.com and franketeam.com - a site which my best friend, Jacob, has designed and has been able to make the top search result for "Conroe Real Estate"). Feel free to visit my website and leave your honest critiques. I want the website to be easy to use, appealing to the eye, and full of useful content. I've tried to accent the major criteria that consumers look for in a website which are Property Search, Property Value, and Area Information. It's not currently complete, so many of the links do not work just yet.

Cousin Carter

I'm going to pretend for a second that there are people besides my family that read our blog and announce the arrival of my new nephew, Carter John Thomson, born yesterday morning (12/4/08)! He's the third of the family (preceded by twins born 1/26/07 - yes, you did the math right, that's 3 under the age of 2!!!) This is Sadie's 8th cousin and there are still 2 more on the way! She's going to have so much fun playing with all of her great cousins!

Here's the new "little" man (he was 9lb 8oz)

Could it be?!

Could it finally be the long-awaited "belly pictures"?

YES!

Here are my girls! Just over 30 weeks now, here is my beautiful wife and beautiful baby girl when we went Christmas shopping (sorta...we only bought much needed clothes for ourselves).



Jen's mom (Susan), on the other hand, really did Christmas shop for others.



Here we are on the outside bench.



Found the first thing we could to sit down in after an exhausting shopping trip.
