Praise God the number looked better today...so NO visits to the specialist! WOOHOO!

Jackson Reid has Arrived!


WOW! 6 months since the last blog?!?! Time has definitely flown by, especially the last 8 weeks!!! On October 14, 2010 we welcomed Jackson Reid Cantrell weighing 7lbs and measuring 20 inches! Pregnancy wasn't exactly easy and delivery did not go as planned...but life since has been absolutely WONDERFUL! God has truly blessed our family! Jackson has taught us the meaning of unconditional love!

We can't wait for Jackson's baby brother/sister to join our family! We are currently praying that God will continue to guide us along our journey. We are praying that He will show us His time. Kaz is currently still not accepting applications. We know that when it is Gods time for us to welcome him/her to our family He will open those doors!
