Any day (or week) now....

Now for an update on our Pregnancy. We are 37 weeks and 4 days in.

Yesterday we had a bit of a scare. Carson, who is usually quiet active, stopped moving. It was especially odd because he stopped shortly after his and mommy's favorite lunch bite, the PB & J. About three hours with no movement sent Amber into a bit of a panic so we were off to Amarillo's Baptist St. Anthony's Hospital (yes a Baptist, Catholic Hospital ....Babolic? Cathtist?) Anyway, almost 4 hours into the ordeal he started to move a bit. We got to the Hospital and half the nurses were smearing ash on Amber's head and the other half were trying to feed us Jello salad left over from pot luck from the fellowship hall.... kidding, actually, they hooked Amber up and we got to hear a very strong heartbeat for about 45 minutes as they monitored little C.J. So all is well, the diagnosis by the way is that Mom is having early contractions and the boy has the tendency to be a heavy sleeper... wonder where that came from.... ?

Amber is doing GREAT ! If she is half the mother she is a baby pod/beautiful pregnant woman Carson will be very blessed Son indeed. I have no doubt she will be a great one. She has been a real trooper these last 8 months and it has been incredible to see my wonderful wife move gracefully (though I tell her she's walking like Fred Sanford these days) into motherhood.

I love you Ber' !
