A Loss and A Gain

Well, Auburn lost a big game this weekend :( at least it was a really good game. We were in Auburn for the weekend and were in the stadium until the bitter end. Let's just say it was a quiet ride home...

So the loss was Auburn but the gain....



Come April 29th, we will be a family of four! That's right, I am pregnant!! Andrew and I went to the doctor on Friday and saw our little peanut. We've known for a little while now but just wanted to wait until we saw it at the doctor's office. It was a bit of a surprise but we are super excited. I am almost 9 weeks and everything looks great. Because of last time I will be considered "high risk" and will be checked up on frequently which is OK with me. Hopefully by the time the new baby comes Carson will have figured out walking on his own so I don't have to carry them both around! So, I am asking everyone to pray for a healthy pregnancy with no complications and as always for my sweet boy Carson. Help him to continue to make his little preemie steps in progress. Thank you so much to everyone who continue to check up on us. We are so grateful for all of you!

Hello happy family! You must just be thrilled. Second births are usually much easier as I'm sure this one will be. Wouldn't it be funny if this one comes late? Probably not likely, but we will be hoping for 31 more healthy weeks for ALL of you.
Blessings for the present and future,
Love, Aunt Suzanne and Uncle Lawrence

How thrilled we are about the news. Will continue prayers for Carson's ahead of schedule development & 31 perfectly healthy uneventful weeks. Wonder when Carson will actually realize that Bo is really NOT his sister but a Dog ??!! You've done a wonderful job of raising Carson in a relaxed, stress-free environment. No wonder he thinks he's perfect & can conquer the world ! Keep your professional quality pictures & updates coming. We all feel like his Aunts & Uncles & your blog is the highlight of our day. Sorry about that game. We War Eagles thought we had that one won. Congrads & prosperity for the new radio station as well. Wrenda Crain
