Baby News

It's been a while since our last post, but thanks for the constant, loving reminders from Lindsay, I have decided to post an update. A lot is happening in the lives of the Mangrums these days. Ben graduated with an MA in English in December, and we both graduate from Truett with an Master of Divinity in May. Soon, our time in Waco will come to an end as we move on to somewhere and something else. But the most important and exciting news--we welcome to the world a little bundle of love and joy on July 6 (or some time around then!). Because I am 18 weeks and about to find out if junior is a boy or girl, I figured that I needed to back track on the baby news just a bit.

Here is our first pic after finding out that we were, in fact, pregnant--such fun!


Next, our first trip to the doctor who confirmed the good news. Below is junior's first picture! I know, he or she looks like a shellfish then but by now the baby already has all the makings of an adorable baby boy or girl, complete with all major organs, bones that are in the process of hardening, and ears that can hear!

The happy parents!


Soon after we started telling friends, we received our first baby gift--for the little bear cub--from our dear friends Corey and Rachel.
