18 weeks and counting . . .

We hit the 18 week mark right before our trip to Hawaii. Since we are not finding out the sex, we got to have our anatomy screening a little early. The baby looks great. I can see a lot of Eric in the 3D shot. We have had several boy and girl predictions so far, we shall see!

Introducing Baby Holmes

Due June 27th. We aer SO excited!!! Here is our 12 week ultrasound and tummy shot.

Halloween

We took Mollie and Mazen to adidas again this year for Halloween. Our friends Amy, Brady and Kayley joined us for some trick-or-treating at the village. Later, we headed to Corvallis for the Beavs game with Amy, Tony, Jenn, Joel and Aryn. Jenn and Joel really got into the Halloween spirit! Fun times!

Weekend in Seattle

In October I made a trip up to Seattle to visit my cousin Meagan. We had a great time. We drove to Snoqualmie Falls and checked out the small town near by. Meagan also took me to see the "boat elevator" in Ballard. We found some good eats at Portage Bay and the Farmers' Market. It was a fun weekend-as always with Meagan.

Winter in Sunriver

In December, we took a trip to Sunriver. We enjoy experiencing the "winter wonderland" of Sunriver in December. We enjoyed breakfast at the lodge with its beautiful mountain views. The lodge also hosted a wonderful gingerbread house competition that we got to see. We did not do any skiing this year but Eric and I did take an 8 mile walk along the river and through the snow. It was beautiful!

Baby Maya Olivia

We expected Miss Maya to come in September, but she held out and arrived just two days before her due date. Maya was born on October 3, 2009 at 8:55 pm. She was 7 lbs, 5 oz and 20 1/4 inches long. Big sister Mollie was very excited to meet her new little sister. Lil' Mazen was curious as well. Since he is only 16 months older than Maya, we don't think he has any jealousy issues and is very intrigued by the new addition. Congratulations Laura and Fadi!
