Hip Hip Hooray!!!

We knew this day would come, we just didn't know when. But it's here, Baby Boy Jenkins (BBJ) has been given a name... drum roll (use your imagination- it makes it more fun!) please... His name is Austin Blaine Jenkins... take notice to the initials- just like his Grandpa Owie (Allen Bailey Jenkins) That is merely coincidence, but still fun. I'm sure they'll grow up to be great friends! I love the name Austin- I've always wanted to name a boy that- but after Morgan and I got engaged he shot that dream into oblivion when he informed me that he has 2 nephews named Austin!! There goes that idea- that would just confuse Grandma and Grandpa Beede a little too much! Luckily it wasn't the end of the world, it just gave me something new to think about... names I like that go with Beede- Austin went so well with Beede, too... Hmmm! Oh well! Anyway, I'm just excited that I get to be so close as to enjoy it with the Jenkins Family! He is such a sweet baby and a blessing in all our lives. I look forward to watching him grow into a little man... Just like his older brothers! Well, now we can all give a sigh of relief knowing that Austin won't grow up thinking that his name is Baby!!
Oh, and Dad, starting the cradle now wouldn't be such a bad idea- it'll give you PLENTY of time to work on it. Then you won't have to work under so much pressure!! :-) For all of you who may not have understood that blurp, my Dad builds a beautiful wood cradle for each of his kids when they announce they are expecting their first child. Well, Dad usually gets started a little late into the pregnancy and then ends up spending many evenings in the shop working on it so it'll be done in time- my poor mom, she hardly sees him! So, Dad posted a comment asking if he should start building the cradle and that was my reply! I'm not pregnant, but don't you worry, I'll let you know when it happens! For now, Austin fills any baby cravings I have!!! Thanks Tanna! Well, that's all for now! Have a wonderful day, friends and family!

Da-Duh-Da-Da... (Wedding March... if you didn't catch that!!!)

Apparently we aren't the most exciting people cuz I'm struggling with things to put on here... But alas! I had an epiphany! Wedding pictures! Actually I've been intending on putting those pictures on here, but the thing is that I really don't have any on our computer, just our enagagements. Here's where the epiphany comes in... I have the link to the website that has all the pics our photographer, Megan Hook (who is amazing, I might add), took! I also have the link to her business website that I really like cuz I feel privileged to have been added to it! So fun! Anyway, enjoy! And one of these days I'll decorate this thing with fun pics!

Oops...

So, I forgot a pretty important detail... That's my nephew!!! By the name, clearly he's not mine... But I thought I'd clarify anyway!!!! :-) He's the son of my brother, Jeremy, and his wife, Tanna.

Baby Boy Jenkins

He's so precious... I just couldn't resist taking pictures of him! See more below...

Aunt Fay and I really, really wanted him to open his eyes... this was all we could get!

So far, this is my favorite of BBJ (Baby Boy Jenkins)! Check out those lips... some girl will love kissing those someday!!! He was snuggling with his daddy... So cute!

A WHOLE NEW WORLD

We did it! We took the plunge and entered the world of blogging! And I have to say, I'm a little lost... Anyone have a map?!? It is my goal to become as good as my sister, Lindsay and my sister-in-law, Anie. I love checking out their updates and seeing their creativity shining through such fun blogs!! So, please be patient as I fugure out this whole new world!!
