Walking...Almost!

I realized that I have not posted pictures in a while so I got the camera out this afternoon and snapped a few of Mary Lindsey after her nap. She is always in the best mood when she wakes up from her afternoon nap so it is good time to catch her in action.

We are nearing the day when our sweet Mary Lindsey will walk on her own. So far, she has taken one or two steps here and there, but that is about it. You can hold her hand and she will walk beside you for a pretty good length of time now. She also likes to push her baby stroller around the house. She can get going pretty fast with it and then most of the time her feet get the best of her and she falls over. It is also funny to watch her with the stroller because she has not learned go around objects...so we either run over things or knock things over. But it doesn't seem to bother her...she keeps on trucking!

She can stand up on her own without holding on to anything. This has been one of her favorite tricks for about a month now. When she does it(which is a lot!) she looks at you and smiles really big...she is so proud of herself and she wants you to clap or congratulate her. It is so cute!

I also have a picture of the "famous" facial expression she wears A LOT these days. What a little drama queen we have on our hands. But she is just so sweet and loving you can't help but laugh! Enjoy the pictures! Love to all!

And his name is....

I know the million dollar question everyone has been asking is "what are you going to name the baby?

Well, after months of discussion and going back and forth between names, we have finally decided what this little man will be called.

We have actually gone back to a name that Larry has stood beside for years, and always liked if we had a son. It is a name that he really liked when we were pregnant with Mary Lindsey. Though I fought it for a while and tried to come up with names of my own, nothing ever seemed to fit like...Luke.

So, for all of you inquiring minds out there, our son's name is Luke Hadden LeBlanc.

Luke because his daddy absolutely loves the name ( and now so do I). Also, we like the fact that Luke means "worshipful" and we do pray that sweet Luke's life will be an offering of worship to his savior as he grows into a man. And Larry also chose the name Hadden. This is after Charles Hadden Spurgeon, a preacher, author, and amazing man of God that Larry quotes in sermons often. So, yes, bless sweet Luke's heart...not only is he the son of a preacher, but he is also named after one.

Now, that all you family and friends have a name, please continue praying (now by name) for our precious son on the way. Pray that he would remain healthy throughout the rest of my pregnancy and arrive here safely in LESS than 4 months now! Pray that God would bless him all the days of his life! We are so excited to meet this little guy!

Happy Easter!

I thought I would go back in time a little and post of picture of sweet little Bit Bit on her very first Easter last year. Can you believe how tiny she is? She is only 11 days old. She and I got dressed to take Easter pictures when everyone arrived home after worship service...I can remember how absolutely worn out I was, but how incredibly happy to have my sweet baby girl on such a special day. Fast forward an entire year(so hard to believe!) to the pictures below! Our girl is one now, and so packed full of personality! It is hard to think that she is the same, tiny, helpless little baby we held just a year ago. She has grown so much and entertains us with her expressions and outbursts.
My sweet friend Brandy came over on Saturday and brought her new bunny with her. We got some cute pictures of Mary Lindsey with this bunny. Unfortunately, the bunny wanted nothing to do with Mary Lindsey. I think his little nerves were shot when he left our house...he probably stayed hidden in his little box the rest of the day. But I will treasure these pictures forever and remember how hilarious Mary Lindsey was chasing this bunny around the yard. Enjoy!

I love this picture because while Mary Lindsey is being distracted by the flower, the bunny is making a run for it!

There is that smile that I love! She loves to clap!

I like her feet in this picture. She was trying to eat her toe for a while...

Yeah!!!!! How happy sweet Bit Bit is in this picture!
