Our Little Man

Well, for those who haven't heard, Cole was born Saturday (3-21) morning! He came a little early! We are beyond thrilled and definitely sleep deprived. :) But it's all worth it. He is handsome and healthy, and we praise God for sending us this little miracle. Jen and Cole are both doing well and adjusting perfectly.

OK - gotta go grab some sleep while we can! We'll update soon with more pics...

The Countdown Continues....

It is my Spring Break this week and I am "nesting" - washing baby clothes, arranging the baby's room, packing my bag for the hospital, trying to fit all shower presents into our little living space, the the list goes on. We are 2 weeks and 2 days from due date and anxiously awaiting the arrival of Cole. 

Stay tuned for more baby news!

Eight Weeks and Counting....

This post is produced by popular demand.  For those who have been wondering about the belly "bump".... I now have the prego belly you have all been waiting for.  I am feeling well and enjoying these days when the scale reads unmentionable numbers, I struggle to put on my socks and shoes (however, I can still see my toes), and Will has to help me out of bed.   LOL... April 1st is quickly approaching and we are anxiously waiting the arrival of baby Cole.   Thanks for sharing in our excitement! 

Bump...

Can you see the baby bump?  Six months and we are beginning to really see the baby belly. Baby Cole is moving all the time and we are excited for his arrival.  I am feeling great and loving this stage.  Will and I are working on getting the baby room ready - so fun.  

What's in a Name?!

Will's Aunt Deb and cousin Haley offered to help us decide on a name for the boy.  These probably won't make much sense to most of you, as they are references to Brewers past and present.  Needless to say we are still debating :)  Hope you enjoy a good laugh!

THE BIG REVEAL...

Well, after much speculation, we finally learned today that we’ll be having a…

BOY!!!! We can’t believe it!! We were (as were most of you who voted) convinced it was a girl, but we were wrong. Cousin Royce will now have someone to team up with against all the girls. :) Of course, this is Will’s family’s first grandchild, so truly a special time for all of us indeed. Thanks for your prayers, well wishes, and for playing our voting game!

I'm looking forward to hearing what you think!
