Oh Baby!

It is with tear-filled eyes that I announce the birth of our baby girl. But don't be alarmed. Sadie Suzette ("Sadie Sue") is a perfectly healthy, perfectly amazing gift. These tears are of pure joy. Happiness. Excitement. Disbelief. Disbelief that I could love this tiny little girl so much! It blows me away to think that just 2 years ago I was praying to God so intently to find my future wife and start a family. With no end to my search for a wife in sight, it seemed even longer until the long-awaited family followed. But God was faithful and in His time brought me out of my single "life" right into the most amazing family that ever lived! It seems like up to that point, when I met Jen, my life was on hold. Every plan I made, every thought I had was on hold. On hold until I finished school. Until I found my wife. Until I had children. Although our quest to grace the earth with the most amazing children is not quite complete, my life has finally begun!

Pictures of our 8lb 20" little girl will come soon!

Our First Christmas Tree!

Jen and I didn't do much decorating this Christmas. Our house in a constant construction site so it didn't make much sense to decorate it with anything other than paint cans, rollers, ladders, sheetrock dust, and so forth, but being our first Christmas being married and being in our home, we wouldn't have gone without putting up our first Christmas tree! Here is our video so you can share in our experience!



Update: Apparently Blogger likes to cut off the right edge of the video... to watch the uncut (HAHA) version go to Our YouTube page at www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XM9AKm8KZE"
