SURPRISE!!! WE ARE PREGNANT!!!

We are absolutely THRILLED to be able to share the first ever pictures and videos of "Little C," the newest member of the Carroll family! These are from our first ultrasound when Allison was at 9 weeks and 1 day...it was simply amazing! Little C's arrival is expected to be February 22nd...

A Little Reassurance...again...and AGAIN!

When it comes to a pregnacy, a little reassurance doesn't hurt right? So, following this philosophy, we managed to take four pregnancy tests in a 36 hour period. Four tests, four positives. Here is Ben with all the results...four-for-four!

We then went ahead and broke the news to Gravy that our little family is growing. It didn't appear that Gravy shared the same enthusiasm as Allison and I. I've always claimed that Gravy is a pretty intelligent canine, perhaps he is aware of the inevitable truth that he is on the verge of being OUTRANKED.

The next step after telling Gravy.....a trip to the book store!

To give you an idea for the weeks to come......this is a picture on July 26th....Happy 10 Weeks!
This is Allison now:

Mimi & Poppa Reaction!!!

The Pregnancy Announcement...so many ways to do it. You want to do it in a way that is fun, creative, and memorable. We threw around many different ideas, but once we had made our trip to the doctor and received the video of Little C's first ultrasound...we came up with what we thought was the perfect idea. Our first victims were the Burroughs, better known as Mimi & Poppa. So here is how we pulled it off: Allison concocted a story that we had made a video that we had made as a gift for Riley (our nephew) and that she wanted to let the Burroughs check out this video before we gave it to him. She asked me to "set up the camera" so they could see the video. So as they think I am doing this, Allison hits the play button on the ultrasound video and I am able to catch their reaction on our video camera.

Nana & Ops Reaction!!!

Once the Carroll's returned from their fun in the sun in Gulf Shores, we invited them over to dinner...and to share the good news with them! Same gamplan as before: they thought they were about to see some video that we had made for Esther, Emelia, and Aubri. Click the play button below to see Nana & Ops' reaction to seeing their newest grandbaby for the first time. Once again, another perfect and absolutely priceless memory that we are thrilled to be able share!

Coming soon!

Thanks for your love and support!
