Even more Eliana photos! Shown above is the outfit that Eliana wore on Christmas Eve. We all enjoyed the 3:00 service at Kenosha Bible Church. Eliana barely made a peep — there were lots of other louder kids in attendance. :) She also seemed to like it when Jill, the pastor’s wife, held her for […]

Yay for Visitors
In the past four days, we’ve had lots of visits from family and friends. The latest Eliana photo collection shows off most of them. It is a joy for us to share our little blessing. Liz, Randy, and Amanda dropped by on Thursday night. On Friday, my parents brought dinner over, which was really nice. […]
Ten Days Old
It’s a lovely Friday morning in our neck of the woods. Eliana is ten days old, and we have more pictures to share! Jenelle’s mom returned to Oregon on Tuesday, so we’ve been on our own for a few days. There’s been a few bumps in the road, but things are going great overall! Besides […]
She’s here! Two weeks early!
Lots of photos of Baby Eliana!

Everything else is pretty much ready to go. Â Earlier this week, we verified that our car seat bases are installed correctly in both […]
Happy Thanksgiving Back
Jenelle’s full-of-blackberries blackberry pie was a big hit at Grandma & Grandpa’s house earlier today. I’m also pleased to report that I have already done the bare minimum as far as Christmas lights are concerned. I’ve replaced the bulbs on the sides of our garage to a festive red and green. Ooooh, pretty. Have a […]
Baby Bump
Here’s an album where you can watch Jenelle’s tummy grow! We are now less than a month away from our expected delivery date, and our baby girl is finally stretching out and making some room for herself! Â I’ll try and add a few more photos to this album between now and the day she is […]
A place for our little one
Nursery Photo Album It’s less than five weeks until the expected arrival of our baby daughter. Â We’ve been working steadily to prepare the nursery. We painted the walls and the ceilings, and then added some white crown molding. Â A big thanks to Dad (Tom) for help with the crown molding. Â On the windows, we have […]

Until then, I encourage you to visit the running blog to read about our latest adventure in Door County. Â I ran fifty miles and raised […]
