I’m moving this here, for posterity.

Our little man is 10 months old!!! He’s crawling, talking, walking along furniture (and everything else), and revealing more of his super-charming personality every day. Where has the time gone?! He’s such a big boy now, learning to do all the big boy things!

My little baby, who weighed 7 lbs 10 oz at birth, weighed in Juse 15th at 25 lbs 1 oz, and he’s 29″ tall! Yay! He’s going to be such a big, strong, HEALTHY little boy! Daddy and I are so excited!

We have been blessed with a new addition to our family! John Royce McDonald II (named after his Grandpa, my father-in-law) was born Wednesday, September 6, 2006 at 6:42 pm via c-section after 25+ hours of hard labor, and much hard worrying by my husband. He weighed 7 lbs 10 oz,
was 20-1/4″ long, has 10 fingers and 10 toes and is
absolutely perfect!

We got married!!! August 8th, 2006, John and I had a quiet little ceremony in Fairbanks, making us Mr. & Mrs.!!! And we didn’t even TELL anyone what we were doing until it was all done! This was our version of eloping, without going to Vegas… we just wanted a quick and quiet ceremony to make things official. I’m so excited!!!
