Braxton

I know I've been slack lately about blogging. I was sitting here trying to think of something to blog about, and all I could think about was our one and only child: Braxton. If you have never met Braxton, he is the cutest dog in the world (and also very hyper). He is a Jack Russell and he just had his one year birthday earlier this month. Isn't he cute? Even though he can drive us nuts sometimes (and he definitely drives any visitors nuts), he is still our spoiled little child. :)

My beautiful niece

This is a picture of my beautiful new niece, Charlotte! She was born on Thursday, February 12, 2009, in Norfolk, Virginia. If you don't know this already, my sister, her husband, and their son (my wonderful nephew) Owen, live up there. I went to visit last weekend to spend time with the family and meet Charlotte. Charlotte is a special baby who was born with a heart defect. She had to have surgery before she was even a week old! This is a photo that I took of her a couple days after her surgery. This was the first day that I got to see her with her eyes open! She is doing very well right now thanks to everyone's prayers and the Lord's blessings. She is home and doing all the normal baby stuff (ya know-the fun stuff-peeing, pooping, crying, etc.). Anyway, keep her and the family in your prayers. Raising two children under the age of 4 is not an easy task. Love you Christy!
