1. Micah is growing so fast!!! He is now 18 months old...I can't believe it! He is jabbering up a storm and his vocabulary is expanding almost daily. He can say Mama, Dada, Pop-Pop (we are working on G-Ma, G-Pa and Nonnie :). Some other words are car, truck, "whasthat" (what's that - one of his favorites) and one of the most recent is baby. Which brings us to..
2. Our family is expanding. We are expecting our second child around June 20th this summer. We are in our 21st week of pregnancy. Mommy is now feeling great now that she is out of the first trimester. And this past week we found out that...
3. We are having a GIRL!!! Dillon and I are so excited! Dillon's first reaction was, and I qoute, "Now I have to go buy a shotgun." So all you boys out there better watch out! I am excited to get to "go girlie". It will be lots of fun.
Introducing...Naomi Kate
Here is the outfit that we got her after we left the doctor the afternoon we found out we were having a precious baby girl. :) So cute and PINK!
4. Because our family is expanding, I am no longer working my part-time job. It was a great job where I was able to work from home, but with another little on the way my attention needs to be fully on our family. I am so excited about being a full time wife and mommy!!!!! I also praise God for a husband whose is obeying God and wants me to stay home to care for our home and family. I also that him for supporting our family and for God providing for us to be able to make this decision and me to be able to stay home. My prayer is that I will now be able to fully be the wife and mother that God desires for me and that my husband and family need. Father, I thank you for this opportunity!
5. Dillon is in his 3rd year at DTS. He is taking the second semester of Hebrew and a course on Acts and Pauline Epistles. The second class is only a weekend course that meets for 4 weekend out of the semester which means that Dillon is only gone one night a week for class (except for those 4 weekends). That is nice that we are able to have him home a little more this semester. We are all loving it!
I think that about sums it up for now. My hope now is to do a little better at updating the blog.

Welcome back to blog land. You have been missed! I love that you went out and got a pink outfit after finding out you were having a girl. That is so sweet! Great idea.
What is it with guys and shotguns?!? Kevin said the same thing after Caroline was born. Fortunately he hasn't set his plan into action yet.
Cute outfit!!
Emily!!! Congratulations! I'm so happy for you and Dillon! That is so wonderful! I'm glad that you get to be a full-time mommy, too. That is one of the greatest gifts you can give your children. Congrats!!!! I love you!
