Here are just a few of the pictures we had taken by Lindsey Carlson last weekend. Didn't they turn out great? I love the colors! Thank you so much for the session - we loved it.

Oh, what a winning streak the Ray household has been on! I won those 10 free StrollerFit sessions. Amazing. If you're in West Houston and are interested, you have to check it out. But, the best thing we won would be, drumroll please...
...a photosession with Lindsey Carlson Photography!
You have to check out her site. Her pics are always so much fun and I have wanted to do a session with her since I first saw her pics. When she launched her new blog (soooo good!) she had a drawing for a free session and, surprisingly, we won!!
We had such a fun time with her at the crack of dawn this morning. When I say crack of dawn, I mean it to. It was worth it though. Lindsey is super sweet, makes you feel at ease, and thought up the most creative background's and poses. Plus, anyone who can get a baby to cooperate and look cute is a genius in my book.
I took a few shots for the blog while she was setting up for a "chair" shot. This is the new chair she got for pics and I LOVE it. I'd have it in my house. I can't wait to see how they turn out...maybe we'll be on her blog. Check it out!
My friend Marisa and I both got pregnant around the same time and so many things have been similar. We got together at some point during the pregnancy and were talking about what we liked and what we registered for. Well - we both got the same random stroller that was only available online. Not only that - we got the same color. Crazy!!
Well, we hit the mall this week and I though the guys looked too cute in their matching wheels.
Like I said in an earlier post, fall is the new spring. These new babies certainly make me feel the change all the more. New life, new potential.
Below are the oh-so-adorable pictures of Dexter meeting his little cousin Stephen for the first time. I just love the wonder in his face and the wide-eyed look he is giving Terry his uncle. What in the world is Dexter thinking when he looks at this new little baby? He really hasn't seen a little guy like that before. I just love it. I can't wait for Dexter to become more and more aware of everything around him so I can experience his awe and wonder with him. Watching him explore his world has already put so much more life back into our extended family. It is as though these new lives bring new hope as we all look at things again with fresh eyes.
So, let's follow Dexter's lead and be amazed at the little miracles right in front of us today.
So, I am probably going to leave a lot of important things off this list - but so much has happened and I've had so little sleep.
Oh, the excitement! My older sister Meredith had her first little boy this week. They called late Thursday night and called in the back up - me! I was so honored to get to be there and help Terry be the best doula ever. Stephen finally arrived at 3:10am, fat and happy at 8lbs 11oz. I didn't stay for the official weighing, etc as they wait a little while with the midwives and I had my own baby to get back to. I was home and asleep by 5am, and Dexter was nice enough to sleep in until 8am...
I'm still recovering as we had a FULL weekend with my old college roommate in town from Lubbock, Fall Festival with Dexter (see "our pics" above for all the pictures) and then Phillies reunion in College Station Saturday. Whew.
