New Job!

Kurtis started his new job yesterday at Case New Holland and loves where he is at. He is contracted through M&H Equipment to work on the machinery out there. We are excited for this new change and his new hours (6-2:30).  Yeah!  He will finally be home when I get home in the afternoons and we can spend our evenings together as a family.  

Thanksgiving!

Roan playing trucks in the flour.  This is what Kurtis used to do when he was little.

29 Weeks!

Kurtis and I watching the Husker game! 

Wally followed the kids around everywhere.  Here he is patiently waiting for Roan to drop his cookie.

Christmas Decorating!

We decided to wrap Wally in Christmas lights while we decorated the tree.  Then, we put on his Santa hat! 

Instead of putting lights outside we put 14 candles in our windows.  Kurtis finally cleaned up the pumpkins so now it is all ready for Christmas!

28 weeks!

The baby is definitely growing!!  I can't believe I am already 28 weeks along; wow does time fly.   Kurtis and I are extremely exciting and we still have about 12 more weeks left.  My friend Kelsey is due any day now and I can't imagine how she is feeling.  We are so excited to meet Baby Engel!  With the holidays here I am sure this last few months will go very quickly.  

More Family and Friends!

Wally is glued to the family when they are here!

Aunt Christie and Michaela even stopped by so we could draw names from Christmas!

Since we are spending Thanksgiving with the Dudo family this year my family decided to stop through on their way home from picking up Dozer to say hi and help hang up the remainder of our baby room things.  It was so nice to see them since it had been since the beginning of October.  My parents are headed to Houston and Scott and Carissa to Ord for Thanksgiving.  

It was a full house this morning because Kurtis' high school friend TJ and his wife Cait also came to visit for the weekend.   We went out to eat Friday night at Nate and Detroits and then Kurtis and TJ stayed up late playing video games while Cait and I talked.  I just love having family and friends here!

Beautiful Colors of Fall!

Oh, how we love Fall. We have so many beautiful trees in our yard that change red and yellow and they are AMAZING! The only thing that we don't like is all the leaves that we have to pick up from them.  I guess though it is all worth it.  

Family Weekend!

This weekend Kurtis' cousin Cody and his girlfriend Tiff came to visit.  They came up Saturday to have Kurtis work on their new pickup and then they hung around for the KU vs. NE game.  It was fun to get to know them considering we have never hung out with them since we've been married.  While the boys were working on the pickup Tiff and I sat around and talked about weddings and babies.  :)  We also were entertained by our dogs.  They have Multipoo who Wally wasn't too fond of.  He tolerated her but was glad when she was gone.  They ended up staying until Sunday then headed out after breakfast.  

26 weeks!

Well, the glucose test came back just fine which was great news to hear.  The only thing is that I am slightly anemic which means I have to take an iron supplement daily.  Other than that things are going well.  Kurtis and I went to a breastfeeding class Monday night.  Let's just say he wasn't too thrilled to go but he toughed it out.  There were three other husbands there so he wasn't the only one. Then afterwards he totally made fun of everything.  We will also start birthing classes this week as well.  

The finished baby room!

This weekend we finished up the major parts of the baby room.  We just need to add some more things to the walls and get a giant rug for the floor so that it's not that cold in there.  It is getting so exciting and we still have 3 months to wait!
