Our brother-in-law Dewey (top pic) is a PA in the US Army. He will be leaving sometime next week to go to Iraq for 15 months. Please pray for his safety and for his wife (Carl's sis) Mari-Gray while he is away. She is in Texas at Fort Hood where he is stationed. These pictures were taken earlier in October when we went to White Hall to see Dewey. It was his last visit to AR before he deploys. We are very proud of him. (bottom) John and Papa had fun ringing the dinner bell.

It's a.......

It's a......GIRL!!! That's right John is going to have a little sister. Her name is Juliann Grace. She is named after my Papaw whose middle name is Julian and Grace comes Gray and Ray other family names. We really are so excited. John even points to my belly when we ask "where is Juliann?" He is so smart!! We didn't really get any great pics at the doctor, she didn't want to cooperate at the picture taking part. We were able to tell that she is a girl and that everything else with Juliann looked great. They did mention that the placenta is a little low but we will check it in another month.

Last Saturday, our church had a booth at the Crawfordsville Harvest Festival. The weather was perfect and there was really good turn out. Carl and I had a chance to meet lots of people and a few were even at church Sunday morning. John had a blast. I tied the balloon to his pants so it wouldn't fly away but it better served as a locater to find him running around.

We gave away free ice cream at the booth and John was a huge fan. He is so sweet to give mommy a bite.(It was about to melt and go all over him so I was just helping :) After the festival John and I drove to Wynne for a surprise birthday party for Papaw. What a fun weekend!!

Splish Splash !!!!

Splish Splash John was taking a bath !! These are from a few weeks ago but they are just too cute not to show the world. John spent the day with Nana and Rosie yesterday. He couldn't understand why Pops wasn't there at her house. He, my brother, my Papaw and several other guys are pheasant hunting in South Dakota this week.
The countdown is on. This Friday is when we go to the doctor and find out what we are having. Tomorrow I will be 18 weeks along. Wow 4 1/2 months already. I have felt the baby move a few times this week. What a miracle each precious child is. What is your vote? Boy or Girl?

Fun with Gramma and Papa

Last weekend Gramma and Papa came for the weekend. They went to a wedding in Memphis on saturday and spoke about the Dixie Jackson offering at our church in Crawfordsville on Sunday. FBC gave over $130 for Arkansas missions. It was the first time the church had given since anyone could remember. Praise the Lord!!

They gave John some blocks with Bible images and characters on them. He already knows who everyone is :)

1...2...3...Slide

Some friends were sweet enough to let us borrow a slide set that their kids had outgrown. John had a blast especially when he realized he could climb UP the slide!!!
