Catching up!

Hi Family!
It has been so long since I have posted ANYTHING here on the ol' website! I have to apologize about that... I guess I feel like I have nothing exciting to say. But, I realized the other day that I am pregnant with your niece or grandchild and maybe you'd like to know what is going on! So here is an update:
Little Emrie is moving a TON! She is having so much fun in my tummy right now. We call her our little jumpin bean :) She moves mostly after lunch when she is awake and fed! Sounds like Maddie! She also likes to move a lot at night when I laying in bed or when I am sleeping. She wakes me up a lot of the time. Sleeping has gotten to be a little harder these days. I toss and turn a lot and am "restless" Zak says, which wakes him up too. Oops! We went to the BYU/TCU game last Thursday night with Apx friends and she must be Zak's little girl because she was dancing to the drums and getting excited when BYU would score! It was pretty funny!
She is about 15 inches long now and a little over 2 pounds. So, long and skinny! I am still trying to figure out how she is laying in there. She likes to stick either her bum or her back out a lot so I look lopsided! She is has a regular sleep pattern and is awake some of the time. I want to try to figure it out so I can understand what she likes for when she gets here. (I on't know if that helps.) She has most of her hair and even her eye lashes and eye brows have grown in. I hope she has Zak's long eye lashes! She also has her fingernails all grown in too.
She is just going to be here in no time and Zak and I are so excited! Thank you for all the gifts that you gave me at the baby shower. I LOVE every single thing I got! You should all be receiving your Thank You cards soon! :) I have everything now in the closet all ready to go! I just need the crib, dresser, and paint the shelf to get it looking ready. Also, we are starting our prenatal class this week!
As for everything else... Zak is doing REALLY well at school. His instuctors rated him in the top 3 in his class. I am really proud of how well he is doing. Work is going good for me and we are so excited to come home for Thanksgiving! Don't forget your outfits for pictures! Also, we just got back from Rexburg this past weekend. I got to see Emily, Ashley, and all our friends. It was really fun and needed! Em, call me! I hear we need to talk! :)
Well, sorry I don't have any pics to post... BORING! But, I just wanted to update you all and tell you how much I love you! :) See you all VERY soon!
Love, Noelle, Zak, and Emrie

Thanks Noellie, you are so thoughtful. We do want to know what is going on with you guys, even if you think it is boring. It's so fun to hear you talk about pregancy--it's all still so fresh in my mind. You might even miss all that movement inside you, but it's even more fun to kiss 'em. That's cute that she was dancing to the beat at the game! Go Cougars!

Thanks for the cool update honey. It's a great example of letting the family know how things are going with your growing family! These moments and your thoughts before Emrie is born are priceless. Love, Dad
