Time to put away the bows!


Baseball hats.  Dirt.  Bugs.  Blue.  Rough-housing. <-- Some of the things I have not yet imagined for our future, but I guess I'll need to get used to it!  We are excited to know God's plan for our family!  Our 20-week sonogram revealed a wiggly little boy as the next kiddo.  Can't wait to meet him!

19-Week-Old Mango

Yes, that's right, I have a mango in my tummy.  My little baby should now be about 6-inches long and a half a pound.  He or She is now really developing and organizing a sensory system, growing hair, and moving a lot.  I feel the baby move a lot throughout the day, but Daddy has not been able to feel it yet.  Next Friday, we have our big 20-week sonogram.  Please pray that our baby is healthy. 

And, as part of that sonogram, we will be finding out if our baby is a boy or girl! What do you think?  Vote in our poll! Check out the poll on the right of our blog to vote.  Check back sometime soon to find out how God has designed our family!

First Steps!

Just this week, Calla decided to surprise us by taking some steps by herself.  We are so proud of her, and you can tell by our cheers in the video.  She's so cute-- after walking to the couch, she would shout, "Yay God!!"  (Last month in Sunday School, she was learning about how God made everything, and we've been talking about it at home and saying, "yay God," and now that's what she says anytime she cheers!)
Flashback pick - Calla's first day of Sunday School!

Pumpkin Patch

We drove up to Jasper, GA to take Calla to her first Pumpkin Patch. It was a surprisingly warm day, and the sun was bright, so it was difficult to get this little one to smile!  She did have fun though, especially when she saw the horsies and goats!
 
Summer and fall weather have been duking it out these past few weeks, but hopefully fall is winning!  We woke up this morning to a chilly house, blowing trees, and the feel of fall.  The leaves are beginning to change, so check back soon for some leaf-lookin' pics!
