Only one thing makes a baby this small smile like that :)Getting to know Grandma Sitty.

Brosnan meets his cousins; Alex, Ande and Simon Dibble. He has so much to learn from them, they are such great people!

Chris and Courtney - Simpson style. Chris' beard isn't really that long, but apparently in Springfield, if you have a beard - it looks like that!

Merrill Lynch shower

Three showers.... we are so blessed! Everyone has taken such good care to make sure we are prepared to be parents! I can't wait until Baby Blanton can write his own thank you notes :)

Our co-workers suprised us, we thought we were headed to meetings! That was the best meeting I have ever been in!

Jacksonville Shower Picts!

Dianne and Annette brought a group of friends together in Jacksonville for a shower.









Gail made this beautiful quilt to go with the crib!

Baby's first tacklebox! How cute!!!

Baby Blanton's crib

The beautiful crib is compliments of Grandma and Grandpa Lane! We LOVE it and can't wait to have someone to put in it! The colors are sage and chocolate and Gail is making a quilt and Marian is making us some wall hangings to match!

Grandma and Grandpa Blanton got us a matching glider that has been great for watching football while we wait for the little guy to join us! :)

For all of those who are coming to visit after Baby Blanton joins us, we are leaving the guest room as is for a few months. We will not make the change-over to the baby's room until the guest volume has subsided.

Baby Belly on Chris' birthday

Since I have had a few requests to see the baby belly........

Myrtle Beach Shower Picts!

A bunch of friends came from all over to get together and help us prepare for Baby Blanton's arrival! It was so wonderful to see all my girls!

For those of you who were unable to attend, here are some shower photos for you!

Rome and Lleyton DeRenzo kept us up late, but after a long night everyone was out like a light!

Ultrasound - 147 days and counting!

On July 31 we were scheduled for an ultrasound to check baby Blanton's progres. The nurse told us that all measurements were great and that the baby is nice and healthy! We were also excited to find out that we are expecting a boy! Seeing the baby on the screen gave personality to something that to date just felt like a full belly! It was amazing to see all the little toes and the detail in the spine. When he yawned for us, I started crying! We are really looking forward to meeting the little guy!
