Bengal's fans through and through!

Check out the socks!


Go Bengals!

Who-Dey!

So even though the Cincinnati Bengals absolutely suck, we are still, and will always be fans! No fair-weathered fans here! We even wore our Bengals gear this past Sunday when they got their butts waxed by the Texans! Maybe they'll win at least one game this year?!?! That's what we're waiting for! Who-Dey!!!

Baby Halloween costumes!

I love Halloween! Our niece, Maddie, has already attended some Halloween festivities back home in Cincinnati. Maddie's mom sent us these pics:


Maddie the kangaroo!

Aren't baby Halloween costumes too cute? We don't have one yet for Ty, but when we do, I'll definitely post pics!

Ty's first smile!

Ty smiled at me for the first time last week! At first I thought it was just gas, but my baby email updates say that baby's first smiles happen around 5 or 6 weeks, and Ty will be 6 weeks old this Friday! This week, he has been smiling at Josh and I a lot more. His smile just melts our hearts! We love it! I tried to capture his smile in a picture today. Here it is!

Thanks, Kat!

This one's for you, Kat! Thanks for the adorable "Go Army" onesie! Ty loves it!

Ty's first visit to Cincinnati!

We took Ty back to Cincinnati for the first time this past weekend! He had a lot of family still to meet on the Mertz side and the Kinsel side! It was a crazy weekend packed with people wanting to meet our little man! We are very blessed to have so many people that love us! We know that not everyone has gotten to meet Baby Ty yet, and we apologize for that. Hopefully, we'll make time to try and meet up with all our friends and the rest of our family soon!
