his name!!!

We've had a name picked out for quite some time now for our little guy (even before we knew he was a he) and we finally just "officialized" it this last week! Are you ready???!!!...
Caleb Oldham!!!!
(still deciding on middle name)
Our prayer for "our" Caleb is that God will build into him the same faith and confidence in God as Caleb from years ago, who looked to God and His promises and presence in his life over and above human logic and perspectives. Even though circumstances seemed impossible and almost everyone around him said he was crazy, he chose to trust and fear God instead of fearing man and only believing things that seemed humanly possible.
Here he is with us for his first trip to the beach (i'm standing on the porch watching the sun set)! 22 weeks. :) Next time i think he'll enjoy it more since he'll actually get to SEE it. :)

  2. OK. NOW you definitely look preggo. ;-) Next time you need to not catch so much backlight though so we can see your baby bump REALLY well!!

    LOVE the name. Caleb was my top pick for a boys' name (before Ethan & Benjamin were born!) . . . did you know that!?!? But for whatever reason, I couldn't sell Chris on it. Oh well. I'm glad YOU will get to claim it!! I will settle for a nephew named Caleb. :-) :-) :-) And Charles is Benjamin's middle name, a family name (middle name) in Chris' family (5 generations now!).

    Love you both so much. THANK YOU for sharing!! I will start praying for Caleb by name now!! Wahooo! :-)
