7 Years and a New Addition

Yesterday was Brian and my 7 year anniversary! One of our first anniversaries with some gusto. The number is the first high enough that its starting to signify a good amount of history behind us. We've lived in three M states, held five jobs, traveled a fair amount, had one adorable child, and now have one more on the way! There is certainly some gusto there. I am now 13 weeks along with Baby Davies #2, and we are ecstatic. We certainly haven't kept things under wraps this time, so I'm sure most people reading this already know, but consider the announcement now official. Our due date is January 16th, Kate's 2nd birthday. I have been feeling great as of late. I was much sicker this time around, but not as tired. Just this week I've started to feel the baby move, and quite a bit. I know you're not supposed to feel movement until at least week 16, but even Brian has felt the movements of this little one. We just hope this doesn't mean #2 will be even more active than #1, though I really don't think that's possible. If it is God help us. Our ultrasound is the middle of next month, but I think we might go the surprise route as to the sex of our second bundle of joy. Though, we do have a whole month to rethink that decision. Other than that we are basking in the greatness of Michigan summer, enjoying the blessing of the last seven years, and looking forward to the blessings in the one ahead.
More Shots of our adorable, soon to be older Sister!
