Doctor and The Great Outdoors

Well, we went to our doctor's appointment on Friday and everything went wonderfully. Baby is measuring about about 7 weeks and 5 days, so we were really close the first time. Official due date now is January 20th. We go back in four weeks. Check out our picture. Baby's first photo.
After our doctor's appointment, we drove an hour to Wilkesboro to go camping with our Sunday School class. We had a wonderful time. Good food, fellowship and 100 degree weather. :-) It was great. I found myself tiring very easily, and felt blessed that we have friends with a camper and I was able to sleep in the air conditioning. Benji, baby and I went fishing, although Benji is the only one who caught anything, we played cards, cooked, and had a devotional. We had a great weekend.
Benji is getting ready to go back to work tomorrow. This is going to be a very busy week for him. He is at the fire house Monday, Wednesday, Friday; has school on Tuesday and Thursday, and also has to get his mowing done. Please keep him in your prayers.
I have two days left with the students there, one workday, and then a couple days off until Summer Camp the next Monday. I had no reservations about being pregnant and working camp, but after the weekend heat, I am wondering just how this is going to work. Please pray for me about that.
We are very happy and very excited. We love you all!

Erin and Benji,
Thanks so much for coming over today. We enjoyed your company even is you were both a bit tired. We don't mind that you are totally comfortable to take a Sunday afternoon nap.

It was nice to catch up on all your blog news. Especially your writing after Grandpa Carver's memorial service. Erin, the song you mentioned is one of my favorites. I have the CD, the group that sings it is Selah. I told Dad when I pass from this earth I want that song at my memorial service. You remember that in case Dad isn't around.
I will be praying for you both this week, oops, I mean all three of you. Love, Mom

You're a regular textbook on Cletus the Fetus progression! I'm learning so much i'm about to suggest to your mom that we have another one and get it right this time. Thanks for the portable ping pong set. Wish you were going to be at the beach next week to play in the inaugural tournament. We love ya'll.
Dad
