Hello peeps! We know it's been awhile since our first post, ha, but here are the pics we promised from Christmas. It was so great to be in Cali with the crazy fam, 70-80 degree weather, great food, and Joe's new "daughter" Chalupa....

We have the cutest nieces and nephew!

Driving to CA with Chalupa was an interesting yet fun experience, lol 

  Quick preggers update...I am now 25 weeks along! The time is going by pretty fast as of late. I feel really blessed that my pregnancy has been so easy so far. The worst of it was some fatigue in the first trimester and a little bit of back pain now. Dalty got me a comfy body pillow for my b-day and little did he know to what extent this pillow would replace him as my cuddle buddy...  

  So we are pretty set on naming her Brielle (our baby, not my body pillow, ha). And we are still thinking about the middle name. We really like Hope or Grace...feel free to give us any suggestions though. She is about 13 inches long and weighs about 1.5 lbs. She moves around pretty sporadically and doesn't seem to be on any type of schedule yet, but it's really fun to feel her kick and know when she has the hiccups!  

Here are some belly photos :)

  So yeah, life is great and we love being pregnant! Hopefully we will post again before Brielle is born....
