We live for weekends...

Well the Bergs have been very busy every weekend for months now and I think things are going to start slowing down. Last weekend we were in Austin visiting Cory and Jen and took part in their crawfish boil. This weekend we were on a whirlwind tour of Houston: Stop 1: The Johnston's Fishing tournament, Stop 2: My old boss' crawfish boil, Stop 3: The Astro's game on Sat. night with Davy and Ellen. We are exhausted, but we did manage to make the 8am service at church. This weekend alone I think we saw over 20 people we know and quite a few of them were at Goode Co. Taqueria after church. Great FUN, Great FRIENDS!

Emerson had a few major milestones this week... first of all she copies every word we say and when we are home she calls for Dakota and Colby NON STOP!!!! I think they are sick of her and love it once she is asleep. Her big achievement this week was saying "I love you" and "bless you" after we sneeze. It just melts your heart! We love this girl and she definitely loves us.

It's a BOY!!!!!!!

The Bergs are bringing a boy into the world! After the doctor getting the sex wrong for the first 5 minutes of the ultrasound thinking the boy parts were the umbilical cord, we now know it is definitely a boy. He gave us a pretty good shot so there was no mistaking it. We are very excited and we seem to be following the girl/boy trend that surrounds us with all of our friends. This also means momma gets to go shopping for baby stuff all over again and now we get to redecorate 2 rooms! YEAH!!

Where did a year and a half go???

Those people that tell you that time goes by quickly with kids are soooooo right. I can't believe that she is a walking, talking, opinionated TODDLER! Emi is so much fun right now and definitely has ALOT of personality. I can tell she is the perfect mixture between me and Michael. She likes everything in it's place and goes behind me and closes doors that should be shut (like Michael), but loves the chaos of the dogs running around and barking, laughing at everything, and is definitely not quiet (like me). Gone are the days of momma and mommy, she now calls me "Mom" like she is 10 years old. Later this month we find out if baby #2 is a boy or a girl... YEAH! I guess baby #2 will get it's own posting when we know what we are having. At this point you sometimes forget you are pregnant with all that is going on, but go 4 hours without eating and you quickly remember. (From the sampling of the pictures below it looks like our child is usually covered in food... this isn't the case, but feeding time is the only time she is still.)

Half asleep on Easter morning!

I am officially a blogger... weird!

Well after much soul searching and realizing that EVERYBODY blogs, has myspace accounts, and has websites, I realized that my 18 month old daughter will surpass me with her computer knowledge if I didn't so something quick. So here we are... the Berg's have officially entered the 90's and we are online. Now hopefully I will be better at keeping up with this than I am at syncing my work computer... 18 days and counting... ouch! Hello to all of my online friends, I am sure we will find each other at some point. Till then... meet the Berg's!
