What a difference a few months make . . .

Well, here we are already in January. Somehow, we were so buy during the holidays that we completely forgot to take pictures! --Not one!!! Though we have no pictoral record to prove it, we enjoyed the holiday season immensely. We were able to spend time with both of our families for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and I even got to meet a few of Matt's relatives that I hadn't met before.

The last pictures we have are back in November celebrating Matt Jr. and Matt Sr.'s birthdays. We had the whole Compton clan (minus those out of state) here at our apartment for a double party.








At seven months pregnant, it was hard to tell which one of us is expecting . . .




Today, however, it's a little more obvious. With only 2 1/2 weeks left before my due date, we are axiously anticipating the arival of our son. From the picture, it looks like I'm ready to pop any second, and honestly at this point, I wouldn't mind if he happened come a little early.



The little guy is getting stronger by the day, and I can tell he's going to share his father's interest in martial arts as he already know how to KICK! On Friday, Matt & I toured the hospital where we'll be delivering at.--I think that more than anything else has finally made it all seem real. (Yes, there really is a baby in there and, yes, he really is going to come out.)

Besides work, I've been busy trying to get the nursery set up and shopping for all kinds of baby things. Matt has been blessed with all kinds of web design work, so he's staying extremely busy too.

We are extremely grateful to our Father in Heaven who continues to bless us so much, and for the wonderful people, family and friends, he has placed in our lives who bless us as well.
