Birthdays!

Okay, so we've been blogging slackers for a while now. Hopefully we'll get back on track soon but, for now, this video of Tober's 1st birthday will have to suffice. We tried to recreate the cake from Shayne's first birthday--the first part of this clip is us showing the footage to Heather's family. The recreation didn't work out that well, but that's okay.







And, while we're on the subject of birthdays, some of you may not know that we have another birthday coming up sometime in November--that of Tober's baby sister!
We just found out yesterday that we're having a girl! Pretty darn exciting if you ask us. We really didn't have a strong preference either way, but Heather's sister, Marci, is pregnant with identical twin girls that will only be 2-3 months older than our daughter, so that will be fun. The only downside is that October will remain the only boy cousin on the McPherson side. With these 3 newest ones it will bring the total to nine girls and one boy. The Taylor side is much more boy-heavy, so they were excited to add another girl to the mix (the new total will be five girls and ten boys).

Congrats on #2! And I'm sure your little girl will be beautiful. Girls are their own kind of handful, but so fun. Of course, we're expecting our third girl, so we're pretty much experts ;) Hope the pregnancy continues to go smoothly.
