OOOOOH BABY!

Well, it's official! Baby Shackleford #1 (as far as we know there's only one little bean in my belly) is on his or her way! Josh and I are so excited to move into the next phase of our lives together. It just keeps getting better! The due date is January 25. I am 7 weeks along right now. It is still a bit early, so I covet your prayers that all will continue to go smoothly with baby.
We had been trying for a bit. Surprisingly, it didn't take nearly as long as we expected. We were able to surprise our parents and everyone else, too, I think. We hadn't told anyone we were even trying.
Boy or Girl, we really couldn't care less. We just want a healthy baby - 10 fingers, 10 toes, etc., etc. Health is all that matters to us.
I had to pick a song with "baby" in it for this week. I had a few pop into my mind. I think this one takes the cake, though! Enjoy some Diana Ross and the Supremes to get your weekend started a little early!
Check back in often for the latest on little Lily Grace or Jaxon Joshua (whichever one it may be!)
Praise the Lord for this precious blessing I get to carry around for the next several months! I couldn't be more thankful.
