Julianna

Last week, I spent a whole week with Carson. I helped Sarah with her Day Care, and also played with Carson a lot. I had so much fun. I gave him a bath and took cat naps with him. I totally enjoyed spending so much time with Sarah, Jeff, and Carson. I hope I can do that again. It felt like I was a baby sitter. Helping with Carson, Mathew, and Henry. I had to change dippers and wipe noses. But it was all worth the time I spent with them. They are truly great kids. And Sarah and Jeff are truly great parents. Thank you for supporting Carson.



I will always BELIEVE,

Cousin Julianna

In search of specific toys.

Carson's vision teacher brought over some toys last week and Carson responded to them, playing with them. We are now on a search to find some for our house. Of course the toys she brought are old toys and no longer available in stores. Please look through your closets and garage sales, and let us know if you have any of these. Here are the pictures and names above them. Thanks so much. We are BELIEVING everyday and looking forward to Carson's first birthday. I can not believe that it has almost been one year.

Yucky Summer Cold

Carson has picked up a summer cold so things have been pretty low key. His sleeping pattern has been a bit off, so say a few extra prayers for his comfort and rest. Also for Sarah and Jeff to have extra strength to make it through the days and nights.

Cousin Julianna is spending time at the Bowman's this week helping with all the kiddos and enjoying her time with Carson and family. I know Sarah has appreciated her help tremendously this week! Julianna is such a great helper...has always been like that.

I have been telling Carson all about his birthday party and he is so excited! He can't wait to see everyone there and enjoy the celebration! Thanks for those who have already RSVP'd! Keep 'em coming!

Hard to believe it has almost been a year since he was born. Although this year has been filled with a lot of ups and downs and trials...we are all so blessed to have this special special boy in our lives! This year has also been filled with so many wonderful times and precious moments with Carson. I'm so thankful God placed him in our family and gave him the best parents! Everything happens for a reason and WE BELIEVE!!!

Lovin' and Believin',

Loves to snuggle with Aunt Jen...and was quite the influence on Uncle Mark as they both had a good nap in the recliner.

Lots of love from Cousin Thomas
