Greetings from Austin, TX!

Hey, anyone who is interested in reading this! Today starts our new family blog, which I plan to keep up with so that all of our friends and family can be informed with more information than they'd like to know about what's going on with our lives.

First off, we moved to Austin! Hellllllo amazing, full of life, land of a million patios, and not to mention beautiful city! For those who don't know, Dan got a job working with Samsung. Austin is a major up-and-coming I.T. city, and he was able to use his skills that he's learned in the air force to land an incredible job with a company that just seems to keep growing! Working at Samsung is right in line with all of his future dreams, so I think that we made a great decision by living here. We've moved in to a cute little apartment that just perfect for us...for now! Who knows how quickly we'll grow out of it? After all, we do have 2 loveable...INSANE...labs, and a sweet little baby girl on the way!

As of today, I am 28 weeks and 3 days pregnant! Time is just flying, and it seems like just yesterday Dan and I looked at each other with the eyes of of a deer in headlights when we were glancing at the positive pregnancy test. Our little blessing, Grace Elizabeth, has brought us closer together than I ever thought one single thing could. God has blessed us with a sweet girl (thank goodness! I don't know if I could have lived without the adorable little girl clothes that have already filled up her closet!) who will have the most loving parents, family, and friends. Being pregnant in another city away from my friends and family is a little challenging, but the good thing is that y'all get to see me at my best. Not, when I'm curled up on the couch and crying watching A Baby Story. Actually, I hate that show. And it makes me wanna vomit. It's more like I'm crying to ridiculous shows like Dr. Phil, and The Real Housewives of NJ. :) Regardless of my fits, I still make it apart of my every day routine to show Dan a tremendous amount of love and appreciation for ALL that he's done for Grace and I so far. Enough about being pregnant, can I get a glass of wine a.s.a.p. please?

I hope to learn a little bit more on how to make this sweet little blog prettier, but I'm just not sure if I can do that or not! So, I will do what I know how to do...and that's post some pictures. Here is some of our life lately.
 That's me! 26 weeks pregnant at that time!

Well, that's about it for now.
