Blessings in Disguise

I think that one of the blessings of my dad's recent health concerns is that we have had extra time with family that we would not have otherwise had. We have always been a really close family, but we have been able to spend more time with each other recently as we support my dad's recovery.

Baby Boy Has a Name

Drumroll please......

Baby boy has a name!

Palmer Cannon Gresham

I think Raleigh and I found that it was harder naming this child than it was naming Beau. With Beau, we had his picture and could stare at it for hours. We knew he was a Beau! Beau Tanner Si-won Gresham just fit him.

Well, this go around we don't exactly have a picture. We wonder what he will look like. Will he have Raleigh's blonde hair or will he inherit my dark hair? How much will he weigh? How long will he be?

Well, after lots of contemplation, Raleigh and I finally found the name that was just right for our new little prince. Palmer is a family name from my side of the family and Cannon is a family name from Raleigh's side of the family. We are just thrilled with his name and we know it will be positively perfect for our little guy! I am 30 weeks along, so it won't be too much longer now until we get to meet our little one!

We pray that Beau and Palmer will grow up being best buds and brothers! I'm sure they will get into lots of mischief together!

Happy Birthday to YOU!

Happy Birthday Raleigh!!!! I never dreamed that any man would be able to live up to the example set by my dad...who has loved me so well. But God created something special when he made you. I can't imagine journeying through life with anyone other than you. You are an amazing husband and you treat me like a princess every single day. Beau absolutely adores you and is already learning from you how to be a warrior for God. You work so hard to provide for our family and have given me the amazing blessing of staying home with Beau. I never take for granted the ability to be home with our son (soon to be 2 sons). Your passion for life, entrepreneurial spirit, and joie de vivre are contagious!

I love you birthday boy! It is already shaping up to be a great year!!!!
