Hey all, wanted to invite you to share some of your favorite quotes (by leaving them in a comment below). We’re looking to share some of your nuggets of wisdom with other Hurry Home regulars via the quote rotator widget we have on the left hand of our Web site page. Look forward to reading them!

One of our favorite pics of our little man, Ethan looking out at Dadda in the back yard through our back door.

We just had our 19 week ultrasound, and just confirmed that we are going to have a girl! Everything looked good and she is healthy, so praise God! Below is some video from the ultrasound, enjoy! (For little dudette confirmation you may want to pay attention around the 3:00 minute mark)

To some of you veteran parents out there, this toy may be old hat, but this has got to be one of the world’s greatest toys. May I introduce to you the Hasbro Playskool Busy Ball Popper, hours of entertainment for your little one… The video below says it all:

As 2009 is full steam ahead, I thought I would share a resource a good friend gave me that will help guide some reflection as you look back on 2008 and help cast some goals and vision as you look forward to 2009. Rear View Mirror, it’s called.

It’s geared more for followers of Jesus, but even if you aren’t a believer, I encourage you to check it out, as it has some good things to think about. You can download the document below ( I included a PDF and Word version if you’re a typer like myself) I invite you to spend some time going through it and even meet with someone else and go through some of your answers, as they’re some good conversation starters. Enjoy!

If you ever wonder where Ethan gets his big blue eyes, this picture says it all:

It has been an amazing year and we want to thank all of our friends, family, and other Hurry Home regulars for your support and readership. We have really enjoyed sharing with you some of the Hurry family adventures over the past year and thought we would post some links and revisit some of the year’s highlights (some of the links go right to image galleries, but most of them link to the posts that contain the links to the photos and video.)

We also would love to hear from you and invite you to leave a comment below, highlighting any of your favorite posts, pics, or videos.
