We got it!

So I know I've been blogging up a storm today, but I felt this news deserved a spot on our blog! We made an offer on a house a few days ago, and after a few stressful days of counter offers we found out we got it! We are so excited! It's the perfect house for us and our growing family. We are also excited to be near Stefanie and her family on the NW side of Albuquerque. Our move-in date is probably going to be Nov. 1st. I can't wait! Here is a pic of our house...

Hair

Makenna has the most beautiful hair. I noticed how pretty it looked today so I decided to snap some pictures of her! She loved posing for me!

BIG GIRL!

Makenna is doing really great with potty- training. Here she is sitting on the potty!

Look what I did Mom!!

Makenna is 2!

Today was Makenna's 2nd birthday! We had a great day! Makenna went to playgroup this morning, which she loves! Then we went to a fun place called IT'Z and went on some rides and played some fun games! Tonight Makenna opened her presents and absolutely LOVES her new dollhouse from mommy and daddy. We love our little 2 year-old!

BOY!

So we had our big ultrasound today and it is definitely a baby BOY! He gave us many shots of his boy parts, one of which I included in the slideshow! We are so excited! As most of you know Scott is the only boy in his family with 7 sisters! He thought for sure he would have all girls, so he's very excited to pass on the family name!

The Becks

Since we've lived in Albuquerque, we have been lucky enough to meet some great friends- the Becks! Scott and Jed, Megan and I, and Makenna and Brinnley are equally great friends. It's fun to find another family that is so much like us and have become sort of like our Albuquerque family. We love you guys!

2nd Birthday Party!

Makenna had her second birthday party on Saturday! It was a double party with her best bud Brinnley who was born on the same day! We went swimming and they had a blast! They also loved eating cake and opening their presents!

Scott's New Job!

As many of you know, Scott was able to find a new job! It is with ICI Paints (it's a huge company that owns lots of different paint brands), and he will be an outside sales rep for them. He will be helping existing clients and trying to find new ones as well. Most of his business is in Albuquerque, but the state of New Mexico is his territory... the farthest he will travel is about 3 hours away. We are so excited and are looking forward to being able to buy a house in the near future!

California sun!

Makenna's official all-time favorite place in the world is the beach! It was so fun to watch her run from the waves, chase the birds, and somehow manage to get sand on every speck of her body! She had a blast!
