Here is month 1. Ben claims I was sticking out my belly. But nonetheless, here it is:
And not much of a change after 2 months passed:
Stay tuned for a 3 month picture coming soon. :) At this point, I was told the baby was the size of a large grape. It's amazing to me how God grows a little baby inside the mother's womb. What an awesome God we serve. Keep praying for a healthy baby Fuller to join us in March!
I've included a smattering of pictures from our trip to Florida with the Swartzentruber family in August. It was so wonderful to all be together and especially exciting for some of us (me included) to meet little Jonah for the first time!
Here are the grandparents with their precious little ones. Aren't these children SO cute?
Here are the guys. Very handsome!
And the ladies...
And Uncle Ben and Aunt Joni with Hannah wearing her dress purchased from Hawaii!
Ben and I celebrated 4 years of marriage while in Florida (yikes! It has been so wonderful that it doesn't seem that long!)
Uncle Ben and Jonah
Hannah also celebrated her FIRST birthday in Florida. Here she is with her very own cake.
Grandpa reading to Jonah. Jonah LOVES to be read to... a boy after my own heart!
Florida is just lovely. There's something about the beach that just can't be compared to anything else. We enjoyed our time and the blessing of being with family.
Here is our little Simon. He's getting bigger and it's taken quite awhile to teach him that biting is not okay, but we have made HUGE gains in the last week, so if you come visit us, you are safe! He is calming down some - today he spent a half hour curled up on my legs while I rested (having to do a lot of that these days!) on the recliner. It was very sweet.

And as all dogs do, he has his own special personality and quirks. He barks at the strangest things. Here he is when he discovered our fireplace. He barked, growled, examined it, and then decided it wasn't such a threat after all. Now he curls up on the tile in front of it when he needs to cool down.
Our latest project is a fence around the backyard. The reasons are two-fold: for privacy from the apartments and for Simon to be able to be out without a leash. It's come a long way, but there is still work to be done. Here's a picture of Ben working on it yesterday.
a little of the work in progress....
and the finished part....
Stay tuned for more on all of these little projects. There is so much to be done before March!
