Baby Cheyne and the Judge

A group of us traveled to Lubbock for Chelsey and Gregg's wedding. We had so much fun! Chelsey looked beautiful and the wedding was perfect. The reception was at 4 Bar K. It was the perfect place to have a West Texas reception. One of the many stuffed animals there was a bear. Craig wanted to make sure Baby Cheyne had its first Baylor Bear experience. All the bears at Baylor are named "Judge" followed by a surname. Once BC is born we will have to take it to see the real Bear mascots, currently Judge Joy Reynolds and Judge Sue Sloan. I couldn't help but throw the guns up next to him though. It's a friendly rivalry (well...most of the time).

On a side note...Feb. 3rd is quickly approaching!!! Hopefully, the nurse will be able to confirm the sex of the baby. I can't wait to start working on the nursery!

Crib for Nursery

Here is a picture of the crib that my parent's bought us, except the finish is darker. It is called cabernet (very similar to cherry or mahogany). As soon as we move the office out of the nursery, we will work on putting the crib together. Hopefully, it won't be difficult. I will take pictures of the final product!

More Baby Pictures of Craig and Susan

We both loved our grandfathers and grandmothers very much!!! They have touched our lives in many ways. Those memories will never be forgotten!

BC has 4 very excited grandparents waiting for its arrival.

A few great quotes:

"God couldn't be everywhere...so He created Grandparents!"

"When a child is born, so are Grandparents."

"Grandparents hold our tiny little hands for a little while, but our hearts forever."

"When Grandparents enter the door, discipline flies out the window."

"I don't intentionally spoil my grandkids, it's just that correcting them often takes more energy."

Who will Baby Cheyne resemble???

My fingers are crossed that "BC" gets Craig's hair genes!!! Just wait...I'll post some wild ones!

Here are the sonogram pictures at 12 weeks and 2 days. In pic #1, baby cheyne is looking at you and waving hello. In pic #2, "bc" has its legs in the air just kicking away. In pic #3, "bc" is sucking its thumb (if they can do that at this stage, but it looks like it).

We're Having a Baby!!!!!

Well it just took me 2 days to figure out how to change the blog background, so this could be a slow process, but I'm getting there. I figured this would be a fun way to keep everyone up to date on the progress and development of little baby cheyne, who is just growing every minute in my belly.

We are currently in week 12, which was a very nice surprise. Just imagine going into your first doctor's appointment thinking that you were only 8 weeks along and would see a little alien looking thing on the sonogram monitor, but to really find out that you are a month further along than you thought and to see a BABY - with fingers and toes and a profile. It was the most surreal experience I have ever had. Craig and I just watched our little one bounce up and down and all around. I think we have a wiggle worm coming our way. But that wouldn't surprise me, considering that I was crawling at 4 months and running at 8 months. I missed the whole walking stage.

Anyways, the nurse predicts a boy. And Craig said that his first thought when he saw the monitor and that baby moving around so much was, "That has to be a boy, little girls don't do that, they just lay there and look pretty." I thought that was cute. So maybe at our next appointment, which is Feb. 3rd, we will have a little more confirmation.

I bought a photo scanner today and hope to post the sonogram pictures soon. If I can figure it out. haha

As you can imagine, both the Miller and Cheyne side are excited and ready for a new family member! Estimated due date is July 18th!

Please continue to pray for me, Craig and little cheyne during these next several months! We are so blessed and honored that God is allowing me to carry His child.

With Much Love,

Susan
