and we're off...

ok, it's 9:30 and we're getting things ready to go in the morning. same ol' story, we are waiting until the last minute to pack the bags.
the weather is not cooperating with us. it is icy here and we'll probably get snow tomorrow, exciting!

you'll see posts on here over the weekend WITH pictures. no worries. we're so excited for this baby! i need to go make sure all the ipods, computers, video cameras, digital cameras, 35mm cameras and everything else electronic are ready to go. have a good night and say a prayer for us:
getting to the hospital on time and safely tomorrow
c-section going well, pray for doctor Knight
kristie hates IV's and needles, pray that the epidural goes well and kristie is ok
caleb is running a fever, pray that he feels better soon

good night...

the stork is coming...

so, it's only 1 day away. friday morning, we will have a new daughter, sister, cousin, grand-daughter, niece here. we're so excited. i will have info on here on friday as things happen. i've heard there is wireless at the hospital. if not, i can email posts from my blackberry.

i'm off next week so i can be at home with everyone helping out. i had vacation time that i hadn't used.

i'm working on getting the last of our home videos onto dvd. i don't want to stay up late, but i'm afraid i will. i'm planning on going in early to work tomorrow so i can get home early. with the weather coming in, we are supposed to get ice and snow the next couple days.

ok, back to work...

by prayer and supplication...

when you get a chance, go to this blog and read about this faith. it is through Christ that we can stand through such adversity and through prayer that He hears us.

oh man, is this guy hilarious! birthday #2 is coming up. it's incredible how fast it all goes. he's good times though.


we were at the apple store (because my ipod battery is going out....) and he tells me "daddy wear" pointing at my sunglasses and hat. so i let him wear them. and it was awesome!

i am really loving this age. he is such a little person. his personality is coming out more and more. i love him.

where have you been?...

that's what everyone has been saying to me. it has been 3 months since i have put anything on here. that is a long time in internet time. a little too long...

so, what have we been up to? lot's of stuff.

first up, work. since my last post, i have been moved twice. i left the city and went out the west county to work in the field. that lasted about 1.5 months and then i was relocated to north county. north county is a little different. there is only me and the project manager that i'm working with in that office. with support staff that's only 4 people. it's a little different. work is going well though, i'm one step closer to having a project of my own.

Caleb is growing, growing, growing. he can't stop talking. so many things coming out of his mouth. the most popular is "hold me Mommy." he's too funny. it is hard to believe that he will be 2 at the end of this month. we are just loving him and enjoying these last few days before little baby sister comes.

speaking of baby sister, she is healthy and doing well. right now, kristie is scheduled for a c-section on December 1st. kristie is feeling good and looking good. we are both really excited to have her coming soon.

please be praying for our friend Kate, who is going in for brain surgery on tuesday. they found a mass and are going to remove it and get it tested. pray for her and her family. she and her husband have 3 little boys.

i know it's been a while since i posted last, i'll try and keep up. have a good night.
