This weekend the girls in our family came to my aunt's house on the beach. It was so pretty today and was a great day for the beach. I got a little burned today. These are some pictures outside on her deck. We had just gotten ready to go eat some good seafood!!!

GREAT NEWS!!!

As you know from our previous post that there was some concern about the baby's heart so we had to go and see a specialist today. Dr. Perry was wonderful!!! He let us know upfront that he was checkin everything not just the heart, and that if he saw anything he was going to lay it all out for us. Well he did all of the test and we were so relieved to hear him say, "I can't find a thing wrong with this baby!" What a relief it was to hear those words. He said all his organs, his spine, and even his heart looked great and was right on track of where it should be. Our God is so great! There have been so many prayers that have been lifted for our little one. We want to thank you all for the prayers they are so powerful. This is such a blessing for me and michael and our family. Thank you all again!
We are pretty sure we have decided on a name for him. Michael Brooks Avalon. We are going to call him Brooks. Michael came up with the name Brooks a while back. We were sitting thinking about names and we both thought it was neat to use his name and then my middle name is Brooke so he will be named after both of us. So for now we are calling him Brooks!

It's A ??????????????????

Sorry I am a little late posting, but I have had to work the past couple of nights. Well we went to the doctor on Monday to have a sonogram done and our sweet baby was very active and would not be still. We found out after a littlet squirrming that we are having a BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You should have seen the look and his daddy's face he was so excited and so am I! My dream did come true after all. He finally moved his little legs and there was not doubt he was a little boy, as the lady said who was doing the sonogram "he is surely not being shy!" We cannot wait to meet our little one.
Please keep our baby boy and the two of us in your prayers. We are having to go Monday to a materanl neonatologist. When she was doing the sonogram she could not get a good view of all 4 chambers of the heart, and she also thought she heard the heart slowing down so we are having to go and see a specialist. As you can imagine when I heard the news I lost it. Michael was very strong and reassured me everything would be ok. The dr. kept telling me I had to much medical knowledge. He feels that everything is ok but wants to be certain. Dr. Carrol was very sweet and prayed over the 3 of us after the visit.
I will keep you all posted with any news we find out.
