All In the Family

Don't panic, the picture below isn't my own ultrasound pic. =) I am excited to announce that Braedyn will have a new little cousin at the end of this year, and he/she is looking like they are going to be an adorable little baby, huh? Ben's brother, Jason, and his wife Jessica are expecting their first baby in the middle of December - just one short year after Little Braedyn entered the world!

We are super excited for Jason and Jess, and can't wait for them to experience all the fun that we are having. And of course, the hundreds of diaper changes, the most awful looking & smelling poopy diapers you can imagine, and the wonderful sleep deprivation that nothing can really prepare you for. Good luck with all of that. HeHe. Just kidding. Seriously, your own baby really is the most exciting thing you will ever experience, and all those sleepless nights will soon be forgotten once Little Worm smiles at you for the first time! Congrats Jason & Jess!!

In the picture below is Montana - my sister Audrey's adorable son. He will be 3 in August, and I'm sure he can't wait until Braedyn gets old enough so he can "show him the ropes". I'm not quite sure what's going on in the picture below, but I think Montana is fixing Braedyn's hair - you know, all 20 strands that remain of what once was a full head of hair. =) Such cute little boys, huh?

And finally, Braedyn will soon have a lot more cousins to play with. My brother, Carlos, and his wife Salley, are in the Marines and have been stationed in Japan for the past 3 years; and lived across the country in California prior to that. And finally, after all these years, they will be living back in Florida, stationed in Jacksonville. Carlos & Salley have three daughters: Charlie (6), Sage (4), and Cadence (2). I've only seen Charlie when she was a baby, so I can't wait to see all of the girls.
It'll be great to have most of our family back together again, especially for the holidays. But I must say, we will definitely be drawing names at Christmas this year!
