Say "Hello" to our newest addition!
We found out we were expecting just before Christmas and
had our first ultrasound yesterday, on Jonathan's birthday!
Happy Birthday Daddy!
We had originally thought I was 10 weeks pregnant but
the ultrasound showed the baby to be 8 weeks along.
This moves my due date to August 23rd,
one day before my Dad's birthday!
Maybe we'll have a good birthday present for Papa Russ too!
We'll be taking suggestions for GIRL NAMES!
For some reason we don't have any trouble with boys
but are completely stumped with girls.
Please feel free to leave your comments and if
we choose your suggestion we might even have a reward!
Please pray for the health of the baby and for
energy and patience for me as I take care of Payton.
He's full of energy right now and busy, busy.
Pray for Jonathan as well as he has the pleasure of
caring for his pregnant wife, again.
He helps me out so much but I
know it's exhausting for him too.
Also, check out the Emerine's blog for some big news as well!
Remember Caleb and Payton were
born on the same day in November!

How about Ginger or Wanice or Polly or Myrtle or Shenekqua????? Those were all helpful hints from co workers!! Hee~Hee!!! Love Mom
I like Gertrude, Gerty for short.
No seriously my new faves are Sawyer, Colby, and Zoe. Kind of southern but I like them.
Take care, Sandi
Unbelievable. I think you and Julie have some type of swinger relationship. Too funny. I am so happy for all of you. How exciting. Of course I think Christie is such a distinguished and wonderful name. haha
April,
How wonderful!!! As for girl names we decided on Abigail Christine but the runner ups were Olivia Grace and we also liked Avery..Good luck. Let me know how everything turns out as I'm sure you'll update the blog!! We are praying for you. Take Care and keep in touch!
Love,
Courtney
April-
You guys are too cute! I couldn't get over it when Julie told me you guys were both pregnant and due at the same time again. Thanksgiving must have been a busy time because I have 5 friends now all due a week or so apart in August and the first part of September. I'm gonna quit drinking the water!! :) We are praying for your health and protection and for good rest as you take care of Payton. You have such a beautiful family!!
Love,
Jason, Missy, and Olivia Willcoxon
April, Luke thanks you for your kiss :) Give Payton one for me! CONGRATS on the big news! You and Julie are CRAZY! I can't believe the odds AGAIN of you two being due within just days of one another. Maybe the same thing will happen for Amanda Stieg (Klena) and I too! Her little boy was born exactly one week after Luke. It is so very exciting, but due to your last tragedy, you and the baby will be in our prayers often! Also be praying for increased energy to keep up with everyone and everything! God Bless April...can't wait to hear more! As far as names go...working in the NICU, I can sure give you a few doosies! Haha!
I am just so excited! I saw the ultrasound picture and just wanted to cry (good tears, of course). I can't wait to start seeing pictures of your growing belly on here! While our family is definitely complete, seeing the ultrasound made me jealous/sad that we aren't going to get to do that anymore. No new babies for us!
Oh, girls names....I had a few that I didn't get to use (believe it or not). Eric didn't like any of them, so I didn't get to have a
Bella, Nora, Ruby, or a Stella. I also liked Lucy. I'll keep thinking. :)
Hey sister!!! I'm not sure if you're wanting traditional or unique names, but as I was driving home from work last night I was thinking of girl names (not sure why...nothing goin' on in my life that would make me need baby names, that's for sure!!!) but I thought of Nevaya Sarai...it just sounds so pretty to me! I'm not keen on naming a girl "heaven" spelled backwards so I added the "ya" instead because I like the sound of it but hate the cheesy-ness of naming a child heaven! There I go again, being stubborn! ;) As for Sarai...so faithful was she!!! I long to use that for a daughters' middle name in my future (Lord willing!) HA! Anyhow, Congrats April and JB!!! I'm jealous, er...happy for you! :)
April,
I don't believe we have met, but I am a friend of the Bryant family. Jason & I were in the same class, and I grew up with him & Jonathan at Travis Avenue. I have been reading your blog for a while, and ADORE your sweet little family. Jonathan is such a great guy, and I am so happy for you two! You are a beautiful family, inside & out. I can see how blessed your life is, and what a blessing you are those around you! I just had to say hello and let you know that I love reading your updates. Payton is TRULY the most ADORABLE little boy I have ever seen!!!! I will definitely pray for your strength & patience as you are pregnant and chasing after Payton all at once. I pray for a very healthy baby & a smooth 9 months. I hope to meet you one day! I miss seeing the Bryants. Please tell Jonathan hello for me, and take care...Elizabeth (Milam) Sullivan
