LBC

We prayed for this child and the Lord has granted us what we asked of Him. – I Samuel 1:27

LBC also known as Little Baby Carr

Yes we are having a baby!!!!! Words cannot begin to express how THANKFUL and EXCITED we are!!! It has been almost a year since we found out we were pregnant the first time, and after another miscarriage on Easter we are so thankful to have heard the heartbeat today at 12 weeks and 3 days! God is so good and faithful! Jay and I have learned so much over this past year and we have been so comforted by sweet friends and family who have done nothing but loved, supported, and prayed for us the whole way through!!! We have also learned what a precious gift children are from the Lord and we can't wait to accept his blessing on March 11, 2011.

Memphis Half Marathon

Jay and Brian Woods successfully ran the Memphis Half Marathon in December.

So proud of our men!

Such a great weekend with the Woods, some of our favorite people.

Randomness

Yes I know all of these posts are months overdue but I am trying to make myself a true blogger by summarizing the last 5 months. Then I hope to update my blog in a more timely manner.

Our First REAL Christmas Tree

After some major convincing from Team Elkins (and Jay) we decided that it was time to start a new tradition in the Carr family: Hand picking our Christmas tree. The fake Christmas tree has been put to rest. I must say it was so much fun and we now look forward to doing it for years to come!

Late's Wedding

We had the pleasure of hanging out with these fun people all weekend long! Love them!

The beautiful bride, Leighton Johson, one of my best friends from Auburn. The wedding was in November on St. John's River in Jacksonville, FL and it was absolutely amazing!!!

New York City

A little piece of heaven in Dylan's candy store!!!

Nothing less than a stretch limo for my man's 30th birthday!

Team Elkins couldn't keep their hands off of each other.........

Surprise Cupcakes from Magnolia's Bakery (they were so good)

Yes Jay and I did this on our last day in NYC, I am still laughing about this picture!

Our own Lady of Liberty!

After ensuring we were getting the best rate, we chose this carriage for our stroll around Central Park, beautiful!

We had to fight off all kinds of kids in order to get this picture but we did! And I love it!

Jay and Al Roker........

This is us outside of the Today show and below is us standing in line waiting to grab the perfect place in order to get on TV. That didn't work as well as we hoped but we did make the Today Show Blog and the TV for two seconds.

This is right after Team Elkins banged on our door at 12:00 to surprise Jay for his 30th Birthday (what great friends)! He had no idea they were flying in for the weekend!!

This is the way Jay found out about his SURPRISE 30th birthday trip the night before we left.......he didn't find out we were going to NYC until we boarded the plane. He even got a surprise shout out on the airplane wishing him a Happy Birthday.

Ok so I am not very timely when it comes to my blog however as least I am doing what I said I would do!!! And I still have no idea what I am doing and how this post is going to turn out. A certain someone no names will be mentioned (Jordan Elkins) threatened to take me off her list of blogs if I did not post something soon.......so here you go Jay's Surprise 30th Birthday trip to NYC!!!

Jay's long awaited early BIRTHDAY PRESENT

Yes, I broke down and bought him his I PHONE!!! Words can't describe how happy he is! The only way I could get the dog idea out of his head was by getting him this "Amazing" phone. Considering he will be 30 on November 10th I thought it was only fair to spoil him on this birthday!! After the purchase we headed to Trussville to spend time with my sweet in laws and of course to show off the new toy!

(This is my first official post!!)
