My dear sister was married this past weekend. It was a great event. She was a beautiful bride. Now we welcome into our family a new brother-in-law, and to Jack, a new uncle!
Jack now refers to Mr. Tim as Uncle Tim. He even sang a song about him yesterday in the car. It was very sweet.
Welcome to the family Uncle Tim!

Prego Update
We had our ultrasound on Friday. It went well. No, we did not find out the sex of the baby. (I will put up scans of the ultrasound once I do finally get my vista problem fixed...I am still waiting to call Dell. Three hours with them on the phone isn't something that I am looking forward to!)
The baby is continuing to do what it is supposed to do...grow! And the best news is that I am not growing as much as I did when I was pregnant with Jack. Jeremy and I looked it up last night. I am currently 20 lbs lighter at this point in my pregnancy with No. 2 than I was at this point with Jack.
TWENTY POUNDS!!
We tried to figure out what is so different. Jeremy mentioned that in my journal I wrote that I drank a lot of grape juice. I also had an addiction to "Marshmallow Mateys," which is the generic Lucky Charms cereal but is so much better in my opinion because it has more marshmallows! But that doesn't explain 20 lbs, does it?
My conclusion: I have no idea why I am not as big with this baby...but I do know this:
1. This explains why my maternity pants keep falling down.
2. It could have something to do with chasing around a 1 and 3/4 year old.
3. I am still having a Cesarean. If I don't have to push...why would I want to?

A Message from Mike Huckabee..
"I'm very proud to have supported Senator McCain and the only regret is that more Americans didn't share my conviction that he would have made an outstanding President. I not only recognize, but respect that we are a nation in which the people choose and tonight they have chosen Senator Obama. He was not my choice, but he will be my President and I will pray for him to lead this great nation with God's help and grace. He will face serious challenges to lead our country and he will need all Americans to give him a chance.
The campaign is over and now is the time for governing and leading. The Republican Party must now reassess where it is and where it is going. Our problem is not that our views aren't acceptable, it is that many in our party have abandoned the very principles that once drew Americans to trust us. Our party will be back with strength, but tonight we should all celebrate the historic nature of this election and put our country ahead of our party.
As disappointed as I am that we have lost the election, I can't help but feel that many courageous leaders of the civil rights movement look down from heaven tonight with a smile that the day has come when a man is elected without regard to his color. I salute President-elect Obama for his discipline and tenacity that has given our country the opportunity to witness this significant event.
Politics is not an event but a process. We sometimes lose the events but it never gives us the right to stop being faithful to our principles that enlisted us in the process. We shall live to fight another day."
We echo his sentiments.
