Well since I just started the blog I thought I'd give a quick picture run down of our last few months. They have been exciting, crazy, tiring, and more amazing than we could ever imagine. Being parents is a huge blessing and we are enjoying our little miracle. Carter Welch has had a very busy and fun first two months of life. Enjoy :)

Carter Welch's first time in a swimming pool. He was not really happy because he fell asleep on the way there. He woke up shortly after we got there and so we put him in. He might think it was just a bad dream. This may be considered child abuse....I'm not sure :)
