Sacramento Shower 1/17/08



Aunt J, Cara, Ellyn and Diane all pitched in to throw a beautiful shower with many personal details! Aunt J made blocks that incorporated photos of CJ and I in our infancy, they were so creative. Brennan even made himself known when he moved across my belly upon the opening of yet another humidifier! He must take after his mother's love of practical items, as he was literally doing flips for the humidifier!! It was a great time with close family and friends.

Yreak Shower 12/28/08


While visiting the Colt family in Yreka, Aunt Jenny, Grandma (to be) Gail and Aunt (to be)Jody (and many others who pitched in) all helped throw a very special 'tea party' shower in Brennan's honor. There were some very special and sentimental gifts given. Aunt Jenny passed down the family bassinet that was made by Aunt Debbie for Cade.

THANK YOU!!

Over the last month, we have had showers held in Brennan's honor! To everyone who helped host, we thank you greatly. Each event was beautiful and unique, and more importanly, was a time to spend with our family and friends. CJ and I are so greatful to have been showered with so many needed baby necesities. Without these special events, we would not have been as prepared as we are now.

Brennan William Colt


We have officially named our new baby boy! Brennan will take the middle name 'William' after his Grandpa. We 'broke' the news to Grandpa on Christmas day with a very special gift.

The Countdown Begins



We are getting ready for the arrival of Baby Brennan! Grandma Gail and Grandpa Michael helped Dad set up the new crib. We were so excited to put this essential part of the nursery in his room, that we spend New Years Eve setting everything up!

Holiday Time


CJ and I are excited to spend time with our families over the holidays!! This is a picture from the Jingle Bell Run/Walk that Cj and I did with our friends Kyle and Michelle. I almost dressed up as Santa with a 'bowl full of jelly"!!

Growing, Growing!




There has been a big growth-spurt in the past month. He and my belly have grown 3" in the last month, out of the 8-9" total!! I now have to tie my shoes at a different angle. Also, he moves a lot lately. I feel big movements and little kicks. You can even see it on the outside, if you are watching.
