It's been a wonderful year full of a ton of memories, most of which have been a pure blessing!
My parents and sisters in Austin are all doing well. My baby sister Casi & her husband Carl welcomed their little boy William Teal Wickham into this world on February 28th, 2012. We have enjoyed watching him grow, laugh and now start to crawl. He'll be walking before you know it. He's actually about to celebrate his first birthday in just a few weeks...how time flies!
My older sister Jami & her husband have had a fun-filled year especially with their oldest daughter, Skylar, turning 5 and going to Kindergarten this year. Her little sister, Lenea, isn't two steps behind her though and growing like a weed. They are the sweetest little sisters to each other. 
My loving parents have enjoyed hearing the news of their first St. Pierre grandbaby, which will make their 4th grandchild, our little girl making this their 3rd girl grandbaby.
Our St. Pierre family whom we get to see a bit more since Memere & Pepere (the french version of grandma and grandpa and definitely what our little one will be calling them) are in town for us to see more often. They are elated by the news of having their very first grandgirl on their side.
Renee, Paul's only sister, & husband Mark have their hands full with 3 active little boys, all doing so well! Their oldest Sammy celebrated his 7th birthday this year, with Noah (the middle boy) celebrating his 4th birthday & baby Levi celebrating his very first birthday. Levi was all of 16 days at our wedding last year. What a miracle it is to remember that they were even able to make it.
I have soo loved being a part of each of these amazing families and watching everyone grow! Family is a pure blessing! However, despite how much I've enjoyed watching each family undertake small or large undertakings and successes, it amazes me that Paul and I will be welcoming a baby girl into this world in less than 6 weeks time! It was at the beginning of this year that we were planning for our Costa Rica honeymoon, me studying for my CPA & just winding down from our wonderful wedding and now a year later that all seems like a memory much further back than just a year as we are in full swing of getting our house prepared for little Brie-Ella! [no that's not the real name]
I have made significant progress towards obtaining my CPA and with a few final hiccups I am still waiting to take (fingers crossed) my very last test in 10 days time. What a relief and momumental accomplishment it will be! I can't wait to announce it to the world.
...for now we just WAIT and continue to cherish the memories we have already!
