Finally, I know. I realize that a lot of time has past since the last posting. Please forgive me! We've had a very interesting last 2 months. For those of you who don't already know, Caroline is going to be a Big Sister (Jason and I are having another baby). I'm approaching the beginning of my 16th week. Unfortunately, this pregnancy isn't as smooth as Caroline's. I've been blessed with what is generally termed "morning sickness". I don't know who named it that, because for me it is "all day sickness". I'd like to say things are starting to look a little better, but everytime I think I've turned the corner, I find myself hovering over the comode.

We're totally excited and can't wait find out what we're having. Jason is already starting to play the name game! I'll certainly keep everyone posted as we have our dr. appointments.

With the good news out of the way, here's the bad news. Over the recent holidays, we had to put our dear sweet Scout down. It was the absolute hardest decision we've ever had to make. As many of you know, Scout was our chocolate lab that thought she was human. She was our first baby. Unfortunately, Scout was born with severe hip dysplasia. After two hip surgeries and 4 years of pain, there wasn't much else we could do for her.

I believe in the deepest of my heart, that Scout is in a much better place. All dogs go to heaven. I know Granny is taking especially good care of her and if I know my Scout Scout she is chasing rabbits and eatin' cheese!

We'll miss you, Scout!
