Half Way There

Well we have made it halfway. This week marks 20 weeks for Karen and the little one. We couldn't be more excited. Lots of stuff to do before he arrives but we'll be ready for him. We have been busy painting furniture and sewing his quilt and crib stuff. Soon enough he will be here. Watch out world, one more Snyder boy!

Ultrasound Video

It is amazing we have figured out a way to see our babies before they are born. In the video you can see his profile with his little heart beating and then the investigation of whether it is a boy or girl. What do you think? Then some more profile video with his little hand up by his face and lastly just a close up of his heart beating away!

IT'S A BOY!

We had our first ultra sound today and are going to be proud parents of a little baby BOY! It was the most amazing experience to be able to see our little baby. And so far everything looks good. His heart was beating hard and he was moving around a lot. We are very excited to start picking out boy names and shopping for cute little blue stuff.

Mt. Bike Hiking

Have you ever been biking and the trail just got too steep to ride? Well this last weekend a couple of my friends and their friends went to the Liberty Creek Loop and that is just what happened. We rode a good way into the loop and then we hit the seriously expert trail. It is very steep and has extremely tight switchbacks as it climbs up and up. Most of us tried to ride as much of it as we could but we ended up pushing and carrying our bikes through part of it. Once we reached the peak of the trail it was all fun from there. Down, down we came and FAST! The trail had some nice corners, creek crossings and a good amount of bumps and humps to go flying over and off of. A great trail if you are prepared for a bike hike up and have no fear coming down.

The Pumpkin Carvers

It is that time of year again - our pumpkins are carved, lit and ready for tricker treaters. Andrea helped out and carved the baby pumpkin that is inside Karen's larger pregnant one. We had a lot of fun being kids and carving them up. Plus they turned out great!
