I think you weren't supposed to let him see it until it was already posted. That way we could no the really good stuff. If Scott would ever marry me then I could start a blog and do one about him.

That was a very sweet list. See, even your husband knows that your supposed to buy gifts for your wife after she has a baby. (I'm trying to teach Brian that, but I'm running out of time!)
Maeli looks super cute in her costume and I can't believe how big she is getting! Can't wait to see both of you!

You have a winner there Babe. As does he. Sure loved having you and Maeli here even for a short time. Fell free to drop in whenever you're in the neighborhood

You have a fantastic husband. We are so proud to have him be a part of the family. I was proud that most of those things I knew or they didn't surprise me. That means that he belongs.
