Brayden is here!

Well, here is a quick post with a couple of quick pictures of our new baby boy. He was born at 7:59 am on Jan 25, 2009. Brayden Matthew Winston weighed in at 7 lbs 3 oz and was 19 inches tall. We are so pleased at the new addition to our family. Thanks everyone for your support! Thats all for now, hopefully we will get a more in depth post added soon.

Christmas-come and gone

Well Christmas was fun this year. We weren't able to go home this time due to me being pregnant (although Bryan would say it was because of the roads-either way...) but we still had a nice day. Bryan came home and we sat on the couch and didn't really do much. It was nice because we had been apart for so long that that's all we wanted to do. The week after Christmas we had to be out of our apartment and things were crazy as Bryan got sick and we still had some packing and cleaning and moving stuff to storage to do. Our neighbors came and helped us out which was life saving. Because of this I was not able to update our blog with pictures and Bryan took the camera and laptop with him so these updates won't have many-if any pictures, but when he comes back, we'll have to add all our pictures.

We spent New Years/my birthday at Jared's, Amanda's and Ella's house. It was so nice to be there and we are very grateful that they opened their home to us. It was fun spending time with them. We went out to dinner at Red Robins and we also went to the Cheesecake Factory. We (well Jared) made a few trips to the airport for us-thanks Jared! It was sad to say goodbye.

I am now living with my grandparents (my dad's parents) until we move to Maryland which will be sometime in February. I am very grateful that they are willing to have me live with them. I've only been here for a day and it is so so much better than living alone.

I have about 4 weeks left of being pregnant, and we are praying that Bryan will be back before our baby boy comes. The pregnancy has gone well so far and Amanda has helped me out quite a bit with preparing for that big day. Thanks Amanda!

It is still white outside and even though it is very beautiful, I am already ready for spring.

This is an exciting time in our lives as there are about to be many changes and adventures coming our way. We both graduated college, are about to have an addition to our family, and I'll be experiencing military life, and we'll be in a whole new area of the country (which I am really excited about-I love the east coast). Thanks everyone who has helped us out in so many different ways. We greatly appreciate it!
