Our family is officially growing!

Presenting...BABY MEISSNER!









Doesn't he/she look just like his/her Daddy? We went for our first ultrasound today (and both of us cried). The head is on the right (and grinning) and the butt is on the left. Our due date is May 26th. We won't know if it's a boy or a girl for a while. My guess is that with parents like us the kid will be stubborn enough to not let us know until he/she comes out! Fortunately our baby registry is all gender neutral.

We are soooooo excited! Now that we have the picture it's all become real. Keep those prayers coming. We're in for an exciting 6 months.

Hugs,
John, Kim, Baby, Snoopy & Smoke

A new "puppy" on the way and our first snow of the winter

Kim and I found out on Monday that we are expecting our first two-legged child in late May or early June. We have been married for just over two years and because of our ages and our past medical histories, had given up on having human babies a long time ago. But, God does work miracles and we believe this to be one of them. Please pray for a safe pregnancy and a healthy baby thanks. When I told Snoopy that I was going to be a Daddy, he said "You're already a Daddy!" Smoke, when told the happy news, said "Pleeze geeve meee some more foood!" We are all as happy as can be and both Snoopy and Smoke will be active participants in helping us raise the little one.

Today, we got our first snow of the season. The flakes weren't very big and it blew around in the wind quite a bit, but was sufficient enough to dust the ground.









It's beginning to look like Winter already! When asked how they felt about the change in weather, the Boys said: "Go out in that when we have a perfectly good basement to go in?"










If only they had opposable thumbs, we'd teach them how to use the human potty, as long as they promised to flush when they were done!
