S is for Smith...

It's a BOY! We cannot wait to welcome

Stephen Smith Stringer
into our family.
Reed and I went to the doctor yesterday and we have a healthy little boy on the way. Smith was very cooperative and he is definitely a boy! It was such a blessing to share that moment with Reed. We were both so amazed at how neat it was to watch him on the ultrasound. I really wish I would have had a video camera to capture Reed's expressions as he watched. He was totally in awe of this child. We cannot wait for him to get here and we are so thankful for this wonderful blessing! Please pray for us as we continue to prepare for this exciting time!

To answer LT's question...Stephen is Reed's first name as well as his dad's name. Smith was my great-grandfather's first name. I always thought it was such a neat name... and he was such a wonderful man. (Plus...Reed thought "Smith Stringer on the tackle" had a good ring to it!)
