So I broke down

OK...I've never really liked blogging. Not sure why, but just felt it to be a bit weird. However, I have a few friends that have blogs and they have convinced me to do so. I also wanted to be able to keep our families in the loop of everything.

This first post will just touch base on everything that has been going on this year so far. In January, Jason started the police academy for Memphis. We are so excited about this! He graduates in June and is loving every minute of it. It was a hard decision because he was hesitant to let go of his business, but he knew that he was being called to do something else.

We also found out in January that we are going to have another baby!! After many, many months of trying, it finally happened!! We had a miscarriage in July and had been trying ever since. It was a nice surprise, being that I had given up hope and really thought we would have to go to a fertility doctor. The first trimester is just about over, which is exciting. Also, we WILL NOT find out what we are having this time. We did a lot of thinking and decided that we want to be surprise. Jason of course is hoping for another boy and I of course want a girl!! We do have a few names picked out, but if you have any suggestions, please let us know. Also, I think once we decide on a name, we aren't going to tell until the baby is born. I am due October 7.

Now, our first baby...Jay!! He will be 2 in May and is such a chatterbox! He loves to run and climb on everything. He still has his red hair and his sweet demeanor. He is a Momma's boy, but he LOVES his Daddy. I am not sure how he is going to do with the new baby, but one of my best friends is due in a few weeks, so we can practice with Little Abby! Hope you don't mind Jess!!

I will be posting pictures of us and keep everyone updated with the pregnancy.
