April Hope's Baptism

April was baptized on Sunday and it was a family affair! It was great to have family members here to support us as parents and April as she grows up. We pray that she soon realizes her need for Jesus!

Here are some pictures (I'll share pictures of her in her dress soon...after I take them today!) We had lunch after church.....Chloe couldn't wait to eat some cake.....notice the p and e in "Hope"??....


We used the opportunity to take some "Generations" pictures with April:





This little girl has 3 great-grandmas!

This is the Aunts pictures - Aunt Chelle and Great Aunt Nancy:

We were having to pull April's fist out of her mouth while taking pictures....Michelle and I decided to pose like April for the sister's picture:




You may be wondering what Chloe was doing while we were taking pictures.....Here's a few shots to help you guess: :)




Only one person didn't make it in any of the pictures above....and he's the person who April felt the most cozy with :) Tom!

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

34 Weeks

34 weeks and my belly button has popped out :)  haha!  I'm still feeling a lot of movement and today my doctor said everything was great.  Here's some info on our "Baby Brother", as I refer to this little guy with Chloe and April: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds ( about the size of a cantaloupe ) and is almost 18 inches long. His fat layers — which will help regulate his body temperature once he's born — are filling him out, making him rounder. His skin is also smoother than ever. His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor , you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.
