What's new with the Bells???

I know it has been forever since I have blogged but tonight I thought I would try it back out.  I am not sure how to work my blog anymore.  I was trying to update some of my settings but I can't seem to figure it out so I guess I will have to play around with it a little more.
I never really sent out christmas cards or a christmas letter this last year but I was thinking about what a good year 2014 was.

This time last year I was 9 months pregnant and I was getting ready to welcome Sierra into our family.  It was a crazy couple of weeks before she was born when I found out she was breech and I would have to have a C-section if she didn't turn around. After 2 weeks of praying and trying every method in the book to get her to turn around, she did turn head down.  I was so relieved that I didn't have to keep my C-section appt.  However, when I went to the hospital to deliver Sierra she decided to put her arm over her head and I still needed that C-section.  I was terrified but I survived and more importantly, so did Sierra.  She was a cute little baby that was loved and still is loved by her siblings. I can't believe she is turning one in a couple of weeks.

Another exciting part of our year is that Eric and I bought our first house here in Houston.  We were just casually looking on line at houses occasionally but when three different houses showed up on the market that caught our interest.  We knew we just had to look at them.  We called a realtor and he showed us two of the houses and we loved them both but knew right away which one was the best fit for our family.  We closed in July and moved in at the end of the month.  It has now been 6 months and we are absolutely in love with our new home.  It is in a prime location near a great school and we feel so at home.

I want to update more about our family and what we have been up to so I will have to update more this week.  I have just ran out of time and I need to post this or it will sit in my save folder forever.
I am sure no one even checks this page anymore anyway.
