Our Baseball Boy

Softball Monday's have started up again! This is a picture of Carson, Monday night on the way to Phil's game. Do you think he is ready for some baseball action. I think this is what he was born to do!

Week 22 Update

Well, I am 22 weeks and feeling good! Most of you know, but for those that don't, our sweet baby girl's name is Callie Reagan! We have had that name long before we ever had children! We just hadn't decided on how we would spell it. Callie is moving around and Phil got to feel her for the first time this week! It was so exciting! She is the size of a spaghetti squash or 11 inches long. We are also busy getting everything ready for her to come. Well, we are actually still in the planning stage, but hope to move to the action stage soon! :) We continue to pray for a healthy girl and are so excited to meet her. I went out to my mom's house today and I thought I would have her take a picture of me. It is so hard to remember to take pictures. I wasn't planning on taking a picture because I wouldn't have worn horizontal stripes. Anyway, here is my growing baby bump. I finally feel like I look pregnant and not just chubby.

Let's Play Catch Up!

It has been so long since I have posted about our everyday life! So, I am going to play catch up and post lots of our favorites from the past couple of months. Carson is just growing like a weed. He is almost 2 and Phil and I can't believe what a big boy he is. He is talking up a storm and repeating everything we say! He has the most precious personality and has become Mr. Independent. He has been going to the potty randomly, but nothing promising. He brings so much joy to our lives and we can't imagine a day without him! He is going to be the best Big Brother! He loves to talk to Callie (yep that is her name) and kiss her. He will come up to me and say "Mommy, more Callie", which means pull up your shirt and let me talk to her. So precious! The pictures below will give you a look at some of his favorite things right now. Enjoy!

Riding Coaches four wheeler or tractor is the highlight of his life right now. As you can see from his big smile!

Carson had an Easter egg hunt at school this week. They had taped all the eggs shut, so when he got home he spent an hour working on getting all the eggs open! It was so precious! He loves those eggs! I am sure Easter Sunday will be fun around our house!

These next group of pictures are from an Easter egg hunt we had at our friends house! The kids had so much fun playing, decorating cookies (really eating them!) and hunting eggs.

Carson and his friend, Carter, were so precious. They were both wearing Brynlee's aprons while playing outside. Priceless! I am sure they were making their daddy's proud!


The whole group! Brynlee, Carson, Averi & Carter.

Carson's buddy, Davis, had his 4th Birthday party last weekend! Carson had fun playing at the park and got to take a swing at his first pinata! If you know Carson this was right up his alley! He loved it!

Precious! Carson doesn't watch TV much at all. He has never wanted to, but lately he will lay on my bed and watch 5 minutes of Handy Manny! What a cutie!

This magazine entertained them for like 15 minutes. Who would have guessed!

This is another one of his favorite things. Playing outside on his playground!

Carson loves the zoo! We try to go once a week or every other week. This day one of the monkeys, came to the window and entertained us!

This is my all time favorite picture of Carson! He go this for Christmas and loves playing "motor"!

Our morning routine. Feeding our dog Bailey. He is such a big helper!

Since he has been paci free, he usually will play or fusses longer before he goes to sleep. This day he had been fussing and this is how I found him when I went to check on him. Priceless! I laugh every time I see this picture. And yes, I did lay him down after taking the picture! :)

This is another visit we took to the zoo. As you can see there were lots of strollers and friends with us this day.

Feeding the ducks and fish. This is Carson's favorite thing to do at the zoo each time!

One day it got up to 90 degrees outside, so what better to do than play in the water! He had so much fun, but spent most of the time trying to drink or catch the water in his mouth! Silly boy!

We are having a ???????

Girl!!!!

We went to the doctor this morning and he said it 100% a little girl! Phil and I are so excited! We tried to tell Carson about the news and he just wanted his Easter candy. I guess he will catch on soon enough. He said that she (so excited to now know and caller it a "she") looks great and weighs in at about 13 ounces. I have been feeling her move a little bit since Sunday. It is so wonderful to know that she is healthy! Please just continue to pray that she developes and grows perfectly. Thank you all for your votes! It looks like the majority were right! Let the planning and decorating begin!

These two outfits are her first gift from my sweet friend Amanda. How cute!!!

Vote Today & Find Out Tomorrow!

Well, it is hard to believe that we find out what we are having tomorrow! Phil and I are so excited to know boy or girl! We don't care what we have as long as it is healthy. I have been so bad at blogging lately! I have been meaning to put up a poll for a while and then forgot about it. My friend reminded me today and so I have added a poll for people to vote on what you think we are having. I know there isn't much time since I will be posting tomorrow night about what it is. Anyway, hope you can give your vote! I promise to post what the doctor says tomorrow!

A Blessing

Wednesday our church had the privilege to have a Awesome band perform a concert. The band is called the Annie Moses Band. They were such a blessing to everyone including Phil and I. I just thought I would share them with y'all. We have been listening to their songs everyday since then. You can go to their website www.anniemosesband.com and listen to their songs. We are hoping to take some friends and family to see them in concert again sometime soon. They are also on itunes. They are a family that play all different instruments and are all Julliard trained. Their songs are wonderful but listening to them over the Internet pales in comparison to seeing them in person. Enjoy!

Week 16 Update

Well, I am almost 17 weeks and can't believe how fast time is flying! The baby is about the size of your open hand. I haven't felt it move yet, but am looking forward to that in the next few weeks. We find out what we are having on the 25th and can't wait to find out! There is so much to do, but we are just waiting until we know what the Lord has blessed us with. I am so glad to be feeling better and to have most of my energy back. I know Phil and Carson are glad also! Here is a picture of my ever growing belly at 15 weeks. I am also growing in lots of other places as well. It should be interesting this summer having to get into a bathing suit. AHHHHHH!!!!! I was lucky with Carson and didn't have to, but there is no getting through this summer without it. Anyway, we will post when we find out what were are having. More than anything we just want a a healthy baby! Thank you all for your prayers!
