Back to the Blog Again...

Well, since it's been over half a year since my last posting...! Yikes! Where do I start? Well, first things first. On November 14, 2008, Clayton Donald Gordon arrived. He has been a wonderful addition to our family and is almost 7 months old now. He loves baby food (actually anything you put into his mouth), rolling around on the floor and most of all his big brother Carson. He is such a jolly baby and quite the chub! :) Next bit of info is that we bought a house in March and moved into our new place the end of March. We got a great deal and took advantage of the first-time homebuyers credit. We love it and have enjoyed making the place our own! Lastly, Carson is in potty training mode and so far it's been anything but easy!! Last week was great and this week has been terrible so far and it's only Monday! Please pray for patience!!! :) Anyway, that pretty much sums up the last 7 months or so. HOPEFULLY I will be better at keeping up on this blog thing from now on, but I'm not promising anything! :)

No Baby Yet...

Well, 9 days and counting. However, the doctor said that since I was a week late with Carson, that I will likely go over with this one too...not happy news to a woman that feels like she swallowed a blimp!! Anyway, hopefully she will be wrong and he will decide to come a little early at least.

Fun in the Leaves!

Carson's Birthday and NYC Trip

Sorry these pictures are way back from August!!! I'm trying to get caught up! :)

Fall is Here!

Well, I guess Fall is officially here, even though it's been in the 80's the last few days. I'm sure that it's the last few warm days of the season though. I actually am looking forward to cooler weather. I'll probably have the windows open through November! :) Since my last post, Caleb and I were able to go to NYC for a weekend getaway. We had a great time sight seeing and just relaxing. Also we went to the Oshkosh Air Show with my family. It's official: Carson LOVES planes as much as his daddy!! I have gone to MN a few times to visit with family and friends while Caleb has been out of town as well. Poor Caleb has been gone for almost 3 weeks now with the exception of the 2 days that he was able to come home for 24hrs. It's not fun to be stuck in hotels every night by yourself and eating out every meal. Anyway, we're praying that when he does come home at the end of this week, that he will be able to stay home for a while! As for the baby, he is growing(so am I) like a weed. I'm praying that he might come early, but if he doesn't arrive by his due date, my doctor said that they would induce me the next day! That was good news considering that Carson was a week late. Carson is talking up a storm and repeating everything we say!! I find myself watching how I say things a lot closer now! He is such a great little boy and we are so blessed to have him! :) Well, I will try to post some newer pictures soon, but life has been a little crazy so I'm not promising anything. :)
