It's Another Boy!

We went to the doctor yesterday and found out we are having another boy!  We are so thrilled!  I can't imagine how much fun it's going to be with two little boys running around together.  I'm praying they will be the best of friends.  I have a feeling that hunting season will take on a whole new life when these boys are old enough to go with their daddy.  I'm excited to have two little men to raise.  I'm so thankful that the Lord has blessed us with another little man.

The ultrasound was so very different than it was when we would have them with Tucker.  He literally threw punches the whole time, and this little man was asleep, no matter how much I moved and we tried to wake him up - maybe he will be our laid back baby.  They said everything looked great, but because he was asleep and wouldn't cooperate with us, I'll have to go back and get another ultrasound next month so we can get full photos of his little heart.

Honestly, I kind of thought it might be a girl this time just because things have been so different with this pregnancy, but I think that has more to do with me being home and not working full time, as I was with Tucker, than the difference between a boy and girl.

Here's what we've been up to lately:

Heading back home from going to garage sales last weekend....Tucker was really wanting to talk to Jonathan, so we called him on the way home.
Talking to daddy on the phone.  

When we went to the Chiropractor last week, there was a guy there making balloons and he made Tucker a fishing pole with a fish on the end.  He loved it!

Daddy bought Tucker this shirt - it says "It's hunting season,  Have you seen my daddy?"

Lunch with Aunt Kat last week

Aunt Katherine bought Tucker some scrubs.  She was so excited.  I think he is an adorable little "doctor"

This past weekend I went to the women's conference in Southaven, Mississippi so it was a daddy and Tucker weekend (Friday night and Saturday). The conference was great and I really enjoyed the worship and the wonderful ladies who spoke.  It was a great weekend and I'm so glad we were able to go.

Here's what they were up to while mamma was away:
Jonathan had arranged with a few of his buddies to shoot guns that afternoon (of course without my prior knowledge), and had Aunt Katherine come out and watch him while they were shooting.  Jonathan bought him the ear protectors on Friday so he would be prepared...apparently Tucker wore them the entire afternoon.
Tucker and Daddy
Jonathan brought a bike for him to play on and he had the best time wheeling himself around.

Here's the photo I received that morning before the conference started.  Tucker was jumping from the table to the couch.
We went to El Nepal that night for dinner and Tucker got in the wagon outside  before we left.
All the guys shooting
