The Baby Train - Chuggin' Along...

The baby train keeps on chuggin', and it's definitely been a couple months of BOYS with one big exception! Once again we're very happy for all our friends and family as our extended family continues to grow! Ellie and Emmit are so excited for all their new friends and cousins =)

Emmit had a couple birthday buddies...we were all due within a week of each other and that's when the boys came...

August 25th - Emmit! =)

August 28th - My friend/neighbor/coworker Julia, and her husband Adam, welcomed Ryan Oliver to their family. Julia and I have been getting together for walks and lunch whenever we can - it's been so nice!

August 29th - Our friends, Ryan and Kellie, welcomed Aidan John to their family. Noah and Haylie love their new little brother! A lot has sure changed since Colin and Ryan's college roomie days back at NMU! =)

September 20th - Our friends, Tim and Renee (The Booms Family), welcomed Evan Michael to their family. Little Evan arrived 5 weeks early and is now approaching week 4 in the NICU. I was hoping to write this when Evan was home already, but thought that maybe he might need a few extra prayers to help him along. He is healthy and growing, but having a hard time mastering eating/breathing (at the same time). Please keep Tim, Renee, and Evan in your thoughts, and pray that Evan can come home really soon!!

September 22nd - Colin's cousin, Leah, and her husband Greg (The Kretovic Family) welcomed Miles Gregory to their family. We are very excited to meet little Miles at the upcoming family holiday gatherings. Check out the Kretovic website - Greg has taken some awesome pictures of Miles (and many other things too)! =)

October 9th - Our friends Ryan and Suzy (The Betker Family) received their final court ruling FINALIZING their adoption of sweet little Julianna. They are now getting ready to travel to Taiwan (as early as this coming week, they will find out today or tomorrow!) so please keep them in your thoughts as they bring Julianna home in the upcoming weeks!

AND, we are also VERY excited to welcome some new cousins to our family in 2010!

In early March, Levi and Lindsey are expecting Baby Boy #2 to their family - another new nephew/cousin for us! Their little guy will be cousin #6 for the Pomeroy family. Ellie will be a tough one with her brother and 4 boy cousins - the way she plays now, I don't think that'll be a problem =)

In mid-April, Shannon and Andy are expecting a Baby Girl or Boy (soon to find out!) Baby Luehmann will be our first niece/nephew/cousin in the Boyer family - very exciting! I've told Shannon that she could start blogging again now, we'll see if she takes the hint ;)

In mid-January, my cousin Bob and his wife Heather, are expecting Baby Girl #2 to their family, so we're adding to the second-cousin broad as well! A whole new generation of cousins at our holiday gatherings which is fun!
