It's starting...

The past year, Ty and I both have had several requests for us to join Facebook or begin a blog. With just the two of us, even though much has happened since we've been married, we haven't felt any overwhelming urge to begin "blogging". Nevertheless, I have recently been inspired by my sister-in-law Jen, and feel now is a good time to start. Jen helped me realize that with so much family living far away, having a blog is a great tool to help us all feel a little more connected, not to mention a perfect way to journal and keep a record of family outings and events. So even if this blog is only viewed by a few, I am excited to try it out and document the wonderful life I have been so richly blessed with.

Speaking of family, and perhaps biggest reason people will view this blog, our little family of two is growing to three! We are so excited for our little baby boy to arrive and bless our home!



It's no secret, his name will be Bryce Bowen Carlson and if he moves as much when he's out as he does now, Ty and I have our work cut out for us! He'll be with us around the 15th of May, give-or-take, so you can anticipate pictures after that. (No promises, it may take a good month ;o)

People keep commenting that we may end up with a girl. Well, if that is the case, we would still be thrilled, however, I will have lost all confidence in the technology of ultrasounds. As shown in two ultrasounds, Bryce is already very proud of his man parts. We hope and pray he won't always be so willing to display them.



I guess this is it for now. A brief update of Ty and I and our past year will come shortly - once I get better at this and make sure I know what I am doing.
