Fly with an Overdeveloped Sense of Vengence

Yesterday I was in the kitchen preparing some food for our lunch when I heard the ominous and unmistakeable sound of a fly that had made its way in through the open door- Open because I had not yet, but was fairly certain I would be burning something. I went to the window where I found not one but two flys. I grabbed the closest weapon and went to work; because that is so much more fun than cooking. I made quick work of the first fly and set my sights on number two. For ten mintutes I looked for this fly, flapping things, opening and closing blinds, etc but he had vanished.

I went to work making my gourmet grilled cheese with chicken noodle soup made from scratch- compliments of Sarah Lee and Campbells. We sat down and began to eat. I tried the sandwich and was very impressed but was fairly confident from the aroma of the Chicken Noodle soup, that was to be the highlight. Suddenly something flying through the air struck me right in the left temple. Stunned only for a second I regained my senses and immediately saw the missing fly- the kamakze fly was now floating legs up in my untouched soup.

Eisley's Debut

Hooray she is finally here. We are so happy to welcome Eisley into our lives and out of Candace's Belly! She was born on Wednesday night after about as much coaxing as Mom could give. She surprised us all by weighing in at 8 lbs.


She is so calm and loves to just sit, reflect on life, and take in her new surroundings.

My favorite part is the faces she makes. She is especially entertaining when she is filling her shorts or falling asleep.

One Week to Go!!



Well, only one week to go! We keep telling her she can come anytime, but she's still just hanging out. That's ok, we're just anxious to meet her!

It's amazing how the body can stretch like that huh?!!! We've really enjoyed this whole experience. We love feeling her move around in particular! Dan likes to poke at her and get her all riled up. It's a fun game they play! I can tell already that Dan is going to be a great father! This pregnancy has really brought us closer and we're looking forward to a new chapter in our lives together. We've certainly been blessed!

Look out world, here comes baby girl Brandt!!
