Finally... He has a name!!!

It's official, our sweet little boy will be named Miles Ray Roberts. We are so excited to have come up with a name that we both love! The Ray is part of a tradition that is ongoing in the Roberts' family. 

We're currently on week 23. Things have been going good so far. I slept last night so I won't complain too much in this blog :) Brent and his parents put Miles' crib together last night. I love it! I can't wait to get his whole room finished. But, at this point... one step at a time is sufficient! Our first baby shower is January 22nd, and I am so excited to have friends who want to share in this special time with us! I'm already overwhelmed by their love and support thus far. I know those sweet baby gifts are just going to melt my heart! 

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!

4 more months!

Had another doctor appointment yesterday. This time we got to hear the baby heartbeat on the doppler. It always melts my heart! Our little bambino is in there and he has been moving a lot lately! Brent has been wanting to feel him, and FINALLY the other night when it was real quiet (and he was real patient) he got to feel the little pings that will only get stronger from this point! He was so excited, and I was excited to get to share that feeling with him. It's hard to believe that in 4 months he'll make his entrance into the world. We are praying he'll be a world changer for Christ! Hopefully soon I'll have a post with his name! 

Friday is Brent's birthday! I gave him a little gift from the baby. (I gave it to him early, couldn't help it!) Anyway it made him grin from ear to ear! :)

Now on to more Christmas parties, and more Christmas cards! I love this time of year. Unfortunately though,  I won't be doing Christmas cards! I guess I'll replace them with birth announcements :) (or Baby Shower Invites, ha)

Oh Christmas Tree!

In front on this very tree, 6 years ago today, Brent asked me to be his wife! It is so hard to believe that it has been that long. I'm just as excited today to have that ring on my finger as I was the day he first placed it on there! Ole Miss is a special place to us. I'm glad that Ole Miss is a part of this wonderful memory.

2011 brings another new addition!

Well, it won't be in the form of a baby! But, my brother proposed to his girlfriend, Kim, and she said YES!!! In 2010, I gained a brother in law and in 2011 I'll gain a sister in law! I am super excited! I know that my brother and Kim will be very happy together! Looks like a Gatlinburg wedding in September! :)

Still nameless...

So excited that we're having a boy! Although, I had a name picked out for a girl. Brent and I have been wavering on names since we found out baby is a boy. Nothing is sticking. We know that the baby will carry on the Roberts' middle name of Ray. But, still that first name has us so stumped. If you have suggestions please post them! I'd love some help. Maybe I need to buy a baby name book. Hmmm... Other than that everything is good. I am pretty sure I feel our little bambino in there kicking. It brings a smile to my face each time. I used to look forward to each dr. visit just to have reassurance he's in there, but now I get that assurance everytime I feel those little pings in my tummy! I am so ready for Brent to be able to feel it and to be able to talk to him. I know he's ready too! SO many of our friends are having little boys. I'm so excited that our baby boy will have great friends with amazing parents!
