Braxton's 7 month check up!



Well, I am 7 months along and about a week and we had our 3rd trimester ultrasound last week. We are happy to say that Braxton looks perfect. He is a little over 2 1/4 lbs and about the size of a head of cauliflower. He is in the 60% percentile for his height and weight, so little bigger, but he does have some tall parents. I just hope he waits to grow until after I have him. ;)

We are getting really anxious for Braxton to arrive and see what his little face looks like. This is all we have for now!

Love-Ashlee and Jarrod

Happy New Year





Happy New Year! This year we were pretty low key and decided to finish up Braxton's room! Jarrod did ALL of the paint job from scratch and I am very proud of him. I am sure his "little man" will be proud too! ;) We still our waiting for our glider chair to arrive and few other details we will be adding, but these pics will give you an idea. The finished product will follow!

Thank you to everyone who has helped us out-we are very appreciative and couldn't have done it without you!







Hey Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Holiday Season. Well, since I broke my foot it kind of put a damper on flying home for X-mas this year, so we decided to drive up the Coast to Cambria (northern California/Big Sur area) and stay for a few days. I am getting stir crazy with this foot stuff! :) We drove up with Shannon and our best friends Jimmy and Jimmy and Jana. It was really neat, because they decided to get a house on the beach, when we decided we wanted more of a cabin feel, so we had the best of both worlds. We had such a fantastic time and we wanted to share some pictures with you!!!

We went up to Paso Robles and did a wine tasting (some of us) one day, which is really neat and all tastings were FREE! Its a really beautiful area of California and I would love to go back one day. I managed to buy a few bottles to open after Braxton is born. And for X-mas Eve (Jarrod's Birthday) he woke up and went surfing (his absolute favorite thing to do), and got himself into some REALLY big waves that day-I think he said 10 feet-crazy man, not to mention its freezing water up there! But... that was the best present you could give him ;) Christmas Day, we drove up to Big Sur which is a spectacular view of the California Coast. Braxton didn't seem to like it too much though, he made me get a little car sick, but overall it was a wonderful Christmas day!

As some of you know, crutches are horrible to use, and since I am now into my 7 month (The Home Stretch) its getting even harder, so I rented a knee scooter to make it easier for me to keep up. That thing was a life saver!
