Merry Christmas, BABY!

Well the news is breaking and the word is out, Baby DeVore is on its way and should arrive early in June! All of you know how long this has been on our heart, how long we have prayed and asked for this addition to our family. God is so good and already this little baby is a beautiful representation of His endless love and blessings. We trusted in God and are simply enjoying watching the miracle unfold on a daily basis. The timing is not what I expected, but completely perfect. Not being surrounded by our family and friends in NW Arkansas during the pregnancy and birth at first seemed so odd and sad, but living in a major medical hub where my risks are dealt with everyday is so wonderful and reassuring. This baby being born a Texan? That we're having a little trouble accepting, but if God made it so then longhorn it is. Lowery is already loving this baby and sharing this with her is something that has given Steve and I more joy than we could imagine, drawing our family closer together everyday.

So there is our early Christmas gift, and a wonderful one it is. Surprise #2? We already KNOW if it's a BOY or GIRL! Stay tuned. . .
