2 more weeks

So, Frazier will be here in TWO WEEKS!! I can't believe that is almost that time! It seems like just yesterday I was in complete denial that I was actually even pregnant. I can't wait to see his sweet face and have another boy in the house! I am nervous about the delivery and just how it is going to be once we get home. I am nervous that I will not be able to handle it all! I am trusting that the Lord knows what He is doing and I trust that He will provide down to each intimate detail!

Here are a few pictures of life lately=)

My sweet Silas came to visit! We had a great time and it made me really really miss him!

The BCM threw us a shower. It was so much fun and we got LOADS of things that we needed!

I have been pretty crafty here lately! These are a few things that I have gotten ready for Frazier!


Jackson and I went to a Tea Room with Grace and Bonnie. It was so much fun and Jackson had a BLAST learning to drink tea!!

Jackson just being silly!!!



Mom, Dad, Aimee, and Lelia came to visit! It was a very great visit and so nice to have them here to help me feel ready for Frazier. We went shopping, ate out, and just hung out! I miss them a lot!!

We went to the doctor this past week and everything is looking good. I am 34 weeks and we planned our section for August 10th. That means 5 more weeks!! Time to really get ready for sweet Frazier!!

DFR, pregnancy, and Father's Day

This past weekend we went to Tall Timbers and had a retreat with all the BCM families in the state. It was an amazing weekend to connect with other families who do the exact same thing we do. I loved watching the kids play together as well as talking to the wives who love the Lord, ministry, and their families just as I do! I always look forward to these retreats!!

I wanted to update on Frazier. I am officially 33 weeks pregnant. I am going to the doctor every 2 weeks now. This pregnancy has been much the same as when I was pregnant with Jackson as well as some differences. The things that seem to be the same are: heartburn, tiredness, and gallbladder issues. The things that are different are: leg cramps, stomach pains and issues all the time, and just not being able to get around!(I think this part has a lot to do with my age=() Overall, I am falling more and more in love with this very active little guys daily. I can't wait to see his sweet face and watch Jackson love on him!
(I know I am only 28 weeks in this picture.. I need to take more.)

We also celebrated Father's Day. This year we had a lazy weekend where Jonathan worked hard finishing some furniture for Frazier. I know, what a great Father's Day. But I also cooked 2 of his favorite meals got him some gifts and just encouraged him all weekend! He really is a great dad! He is great at making us feel loved, wanted, and needed. He puts the Lord first and that is what makes him the best husband, father, and minister in the world!! We love you Jonathan!!

Half of the IN Clark's come to visit...

This past week Jonathan's brother, Billy, and 3 of his 5 children came to visit. They are from Indiana so it was a long trip for them. We had a great time going on adventures, playing the Wii, and just catching up! Here are just a few pictures of our time together.

Mission Arlington/ 50's Fellowship


We are home from our AMAZING mission trip and being very busy getting these last few weeks of school over with. We had a 50's fellowship last night to end the school year and have one last fun time before finals. I am happy to report that Frazier made it through the mission trip and is still very active. I was so nervous going into the trip because the last time we went to Mission Arlington I miscarried. But the Lord heard our prayers and next week we will get to see Frazier again! =)
Speaking of Frazier. I am officially 26 week pregnant and going great. I have tons of leg cramps and back pain but all things that are manageable. I do have partial placenta previa which means the placenta as planted over my cervix. We will have an ultrasound next week to see if it still that way.
Speaking of the mission trip. It was amazing. We have a ton of great students who work hard, have great attitudes, and simply love the Lord. It was a pleasure to work with them and serve along side them!
Speaking of the fellowship, it was so much fun! The students did, yet again, an amazing job of planning and making the 50's fellowship loads of fun!! Jackson had so much fun drinking a root beer float and playing with a toy gun the entire night! He has really adjusted to SLU and loves the college students!!

April in picture...in rewind=)


Jonathan and I had an amazing weekend with a youth group from Brandon MS. I got to teach the middle school girls and he got to teach the Senior boys! It was also great to catch up with old friends from Ruston, Cody and Christina.

We had a family night where we watched a movie on the porch. It was great weather and so much fun!

Jackson caught a toad. He was so proud!


A few weekends ago we went and rode bikes. We had a BLAST and will totally do this again soon!!




Ponchatoula has a strawberry festival every year. It was so much fun and Jackson had a blast. It was also nice to go with some friends who could show us around. OH! and Yes that is a deep fried strawberry which was actually pretty good!

Jackson and his little worm. He loves animals!!

Jonathan and Jackson went on an adventure and came back with this?!!?
