Bailey Boo and Birch too!

Here are the Brown kids. We love them - aren't they cute!?! Cute kids just like their Aunt Sam. Last weekend Sophie, Daphnie and I went to visit baby Macarti for the first time and then we all sneaked back to visit Papa for his birthday and Father's Day at Aunt Jodi and Uncle Brian's house. We stayed up late eating and making smores and then on Sunday we went to church and Mr. Birch was dedicated. We all enjoyed a yummy BBQ and then back home. Fun! Fun! Fun!

Macarti Rae Nix

Uncle Ben and Aunt Sam wanted to share with you a precious little miracle that joined our family last Wednesday, June 6th. Macarti Rae Nix was born to Casi and Tenny at 7 lbs 9 oz - 21 inches. We love her! She is the perfect combination of Casi and Tenny. So adorable! They are all doing wonderfully! Congratulations Mama and Daddy!

Banjo!

So much has happened since I had wrote last! My belly is continuing to grow and grow! Our little one has been blessed with a nickname by his Auntie Holly who had a dream that Ben and I ended up naming our little guy "Banjo" of all things. Although this has not ended up on our name list it has been adopted as the nickname for just while he is in utero. We have not decided on a name yet although we have many wonderful names that are either ones we just really like or they are family names and we just haven't found that perfect combination yet. We hope to keep it a secret and announce it when he is born.

Ben is gearing up for camp. He will be leaving June 13th and back the end of July/first of August. We are rushing around now trying to get a few thousand things done before he leaves for camp.

The days are getting hotter and hotter! With no air conditioning in the house it is always interesting trying to do anything and everything to keep the house cool for this pregnant lady! ;)

Baby Boy Melton

Just wanted to share with all of our friends and family that Ben and I found out on Monday, April 23, that we are having a baby boy. We are so excited although we are struggling a lot to come up with the perfect name. It has to be perfect you know! We'll keep you all posted.

Easter with the Family

We were so blessed this Easter to be able to have some our family from Montana come see us. We had a lot of fun showing off our new home as well as chasing around a little nephews. We played with our dogs Daphnie and Sophie or as they call them Daphie and Snophie :) and we had an Easter Egg Hunt in our backyard. Thanks for coming to see us everyone!

Our little peanut.

February 20th we had our third doctors appointment and we were scheduled for our first ultrasound to date our little one. The ultrasound began and I squeezed my eyes closed only to be startled by a LOUD and may I say strong heartbeat. I opened my eyes and saw our little peanut kicking and moving around. It was amazing! Ben and I looked at eachother with our joyful tear filled eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. We are so thankful to all of our friends and family that had been praying for us. Praise God, our little peanut was doing great!
