Playing with Christmas Stuffed Animals

Decorating the Christmas Tree

Tony, I , and the boys got to help my parent's decorate their christmas tree. The boys loved getting to touch all the ornaments.

The kids 1st trip to the beach

This past November we got to go to Gulf Shores, AL with Tony's parents. We had an awesome time despite the bad weather the last 3 days. Here's some pictures from the one day we got to go down to the beach.

Announcing your pregnancy
You have to be prepared for all kinds of reactions when you announce your pregnancy. Some of our favorites:
• "Why?"
• "How did this happen?"
• "Uh-oh!"
• "You know what causes this, don't you?"


How to have morning sickness in public
• Pretend you're looking for something deep inside your purse – then snap it shut and discard.
• "Want to see my impression of Old Faithful?"
• "I'm sorry about your shoes."
• "Maybe next time don't eat your Pad Thai so close to me, okay?"

"Bug Bites"???

Darren has gotten these "bites" since we've been visiting family in Eastman. Nobody else in either household has gotten any. Anybody got any idea what it might be? Fleas?

Baby #3 on the way

Yep! I'm pregnant with our 3rd child. It's still surreal. I'm only about 6 weeks along, so I'm still nervous about the pregnancy. I'm trying to remember that God is in control, and He takes care of everything (especially those things that are out of my hands). My first doctor's appointment is September 13th. It seems like forever away. Please pray for us as we make this transition. Thanks!
