New Year and New Beginnings...

A lot has happend since my last post at the end of 2009. We had a little boy Judson Alan Hildebrand, he was born on May 21st, 2010. What a wonderful addition to our family. He has been such a blessing and his big sister Samantha just loves him.

Just 2.5 short months later we found out we were expecting Baby #3. Suprise for sure but we are so happy. Also, we have decided not to find out what we are having and let it be a suprise too. We are due on May 6th, so Judson and this one will be about 11 months apart. So that should make for an interesting 2011.

Mark is working again and has been since May 2010, so we finally made past the dreaded 3 month mark. I am still at Siemens but not sure what will happen after baby #3 is born.

Well my plan is to start keeping this more up to date this year. That way everyone can know what is going on in the Hildebrand World!!

Happy New Year everyone, I hope that this year brings you everything that you it want it to!!

Samantha's 1st Birthday!!

We had Samantha's birthday party on the Friday after Thanksgiving so that Mark's family could be there. Samantha recieved lots of great gifts and had a lot of fun with her cake. I cannot believe that hse is already 1. Time goes by way to fast. I cannot believe that in 6 mths we will have two little one's.

Halloween 2009

It was Samantha's first Halloween. It did not fell like Halloween at all...down here in Flordia it was about 80+ degrees outside. Not got good trick-or-treating weather. I think that she did really well, though. We dressed her as a pumpkin and she did not seem to mind. The only thing she did not care for was the hat. But we did get a few cute pics with it on. Made it to about 10 houses and then she started to get tired, so we went home. She had fun taking all of the candy out of her bag once we got back to the house.

New Pics of Samantha

I know that it has been a while, I am bad about keeping our site up to date. Well Mark is still staying home with Samantha and looking for a job. I am obviously back to full time here at Siemens and trying to decide on a new opportunity for a special project with a good bit of travel to Germany and a possible delegation there for 6 mths to a year. So no decesion yet...I have to let my mangement know by the beginning of September.

Well enough about Mark and I....Samantha will be 9 months old at the end of this month. Wow does time go by WAY TO FAST!!! I feel like just like yesterday I was pregnant with her. Well she is crawling all over the place now and has started pulling up. Mark had to lower her crib because he walked in on her one day after a nap and she was standing up in her crib. Samantha finished her swim classes yesterday. She is doing really well, she enjoys being in the pool and she is good at kicking, turning over in the water and holding on to the side of the pool. Well enjoy the pics and I will try to keep this site more up to date.

Iowa Trip....

Well we left Orlando last Thursday. Drove to Pensacola that night and stayed with my grandmother. We got up Friday morning and then drove to Lakeview, Arkansas to visit with Mark's Aunt and Uncle. That took way longer than expected...almost 13 hours. We stayed the night there. Woke up Saturday morning and drove to Mark's parents lakehouse in the Ozark's. That took us only about 3 hours, so not to bad. Mark surprised his Mom for her birthday...she did not know we were coming. They had not seen Samantha since she was about 2 weeks old so needless to say she was very excited and happy. Sunday we drove to Iowa that took about 6 hours. So now we have been hanging out with Mark's family it has been very relaxing. We have 2 days left here we are leaving on Saturday and driving to Nashville and staying the night and then driving on home on Sunday. Well here are a few pics that we have taken since we have been here.
