MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

It's been a while since the last update, but things have been great!!
Last weekend we went to Dallas to visit Jeffrey and had a 'football' weekend. Jeff's friends, Braden and Christopher, came up to Dallas too and we all had a blast! We went to the NCAA Men's Soccer finals out in Frisco, TX on Friday and Sunday, then Jeffrey got us all Cowboys/Giants tickets (thanks, Jeffrey!). We also got to meet up with our friends out in Dallas- Cameron, Mason, and Caroline...it was so nice to see them too!

Out with Cameron, Mason, and Caroline in Dallas!

Brady then had to fly to Denver for a training course for the rest of the week. He experienced some single digit weather, but luckily it warmed up and he was back in Houston before he knew it!

This past Saturday our girlfriends had their annual Christmas party and requested the attire to be 'cocktail or tacky sweater attire'....well thanks to our friend, Julia's suggestion to shop at Value Village, we found some very festive outfits... to say the least!

YAY! It's Christmas Eve... We'll get see the Noto's on Christmas morning, Lemarie's on Christmas evening, and all of Angie's family on Friday night! Our little one will get to try out some very good food over the next few days and be able to hear our whole family! (Yes, he/she can hear now!) Thankfully all foods have been appealing, but have been constantly wanted...this one likes to eat! Last week Mexican was the favorite...especially Pappasito's fajitas!! He/She has really been growing and Angie's starting to show a little bump!
In less than two weeks we find out if it's going to be a boy or a girl and we couldn't be more excited! We are just as excited to share the upcoming news with you all too!

We hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2009!! We look forward to seeing all of our family and friends very very soon!

Love,

Angie & Brady

Good news!

We went in today for another follow up and ultrasound. Our baby was just a movin' and a shakin' all around! We got to see him/her kick and move around their arms...hmm soccer player maybe?!?! It was, once again, amazing!! The doctor said that's great to see and it shows that he/she is receiving a good amount of oxygen and blood flow.
We didn't get to bring home a picture. However, our next visit is in 4 weeks and we'll receive a full hospital ultrasound and receive the results on the sex. We tried to find out today, but the doctor said it was still too early to be certain.
It was such a great visit and we are so very thankful for the countless prayers you all have been sending our way! It truely means so much to us!

These next few weeks are going to be full of fun filled holiday events. Next weekend we're planning on heading up to Dallas to visit Jeffrey, Brady's brother, and to watch the NCAA Soccer finals. Before you know it, Christmas will be here and we'll be able to see all of our family in Houston and New Orleans...it's such a great time of the year! We've also started to plan our holiday vacation to the East Coast to visit Washington D.C., Philadelphia, and New York!

Hope you all have a wonderful week and we look forward to seeing everyone during the holidays!
Love you all!
Angie & Brady
