Well, Freeby and I have finally decided on a name for this sweet baby. His name is going to be Braden Samuel. (I think this is the way we are going to spell it.) As Mom said in the last post, he will be here sometime before Thanksgiving. I love my Dr. He said that we will induce Nov. 24th if he is not here yet. This baby is a little large like Cason was. Just in case you have forgotten, that is my dad's birthday. Wouldn't that be fun. Anyway, things are great and we are starting to think about emptying the attic of the baby things. I just wanted to update you all on the name and how things are going.

It's About Time!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Cason, Randi and I had a great trip to see Tyrel and Taylor! Here are some pics of the beach right by their house. It was really good to be with them! Randi is doing so well with her pregnancy. This new little guy sure wiggles all the time and seems to be doing so great, so we're thankful! We look for him to arrive around Thanksgiving! Freeby is in the middle of a couple of cases that are keeping him busy! Taylor got a wonderful job at the hospital and Tyrel is going to be gone quite a bit this fall for special trainings. Mike and I are working hard and finding the days full! We are blessed!
I love all the postings on the blog! You guys always make me laugh!!! So, keep it up! When you have a minute, go to our very new website, www.sweeteststitches.com They'll be changes as we go, but you can at least see it for now... we're staying very busy with lots of orders- all word of mouth right now.
Much love to all!

Midland women walk for breast cancer
An estimated 40,460 women will die of breast cancer this year and another about 450 men will also be taken by the disease.

The six women laughed Thursday as they automatically fell into their walking formation -- the three with quicker strides standing in front and the others following behind just as they've done during each of the 298 miles they've completed so far.The longtime friends have been walking 3 to 18 miles four times each week since the start of summer to prepare for the three-day, 60-mile breast cancer walk in Washington D.C. they'll be completing in October.As they met Thursday they joked about their busy days and new haircuts, looking from one to the next and then pointing out that while nearly all of them were wearing a dab of light pink to recognize the Susan G. Komen foundation, matching is not a feat they strive for every day.

Completing each of their routes, which they have documented on crumpled printouts in case they want to repeat a favorite track, certainly has brought the women closer, they admit. But it's also done much more than that, as they prepare to attend the event in honor of teammate and breast cancer survivor Vicki Durham, as well as their friends Terri Patton and Dion Hammond, who's suffering from a brain tumor."It touches us all" Durham said, as the women each listed off additional friends and family members who've suffered from the disease.Nationwide, one woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes and another loses her life to the disease every 13 minutes, according to the data from the national philanthropic project Susan G. Komen for the Cure.An estimated 40,460 women will die of breast cancer this year and another about 450 men will also be taken by the disease.When Durham discovered her own cancer it was through a self-exam, she said, looking to teammate Crista Fender to emphasize the importance of practicing that habit regularly, too.The group of women around Durham Thursday had kept tabs on each other through church groups and school events their children shared during the last 10 years or so, and when they heard of Durham's diagnosis in early 2007, launched prayers of support."You feel like you're kind of helpless," said Becca Yocham. "There's not much you can do."The others nodded in agreement and said though they did what they could, the situation left them feeling helpless, especially since they were in Midland reading e-mailed updates about Durham's condition as she was treated in Houston.When they started talking later about an action they could take to support Durham and the multitude of others they've known who went through the same situation, they said a three-day Susan G. Komen walk seemed like the perfect fit -- even if it did take a little convincing from Laura Boone, the one they describe as their "athletic friend.""That was a way we could do something more," Juanda Washburn said.Originally, they thought of traveling to Dallas, but decided if they were going to use their previously saved frequent flyer miles they might as well take a longer journey.When they started 12 weeks ago they took short routes, said team member Kim Bates. Now when they only go 5 or 6 miles it flies by in one conversation since they're becoming accustomed to the longer trips where they see all corners of town and make bathroom and snack breaks at any nearby business.By the time they finish the Washington walk Oct. 5 they'll have reached 490 miles. They've agreed to log an extra 10 sightseeing so they can call it an even 500 miles.To participate, each woman must raise $2,200 and the team is planning a garage sale and selling T-shirts along with their letters asking for help to meet their team goal of raising $18,000.The three-day breast cancer walks in 2007 raised $86 million for research and education.Durham said the outpour of support she received during her treatment was overwhelming and that she looks forward to seeing the thousands of others at the walk who've also survived or are supporting the cause.Until they get there, they said, be sure and wave at any group of six walking because, even if it's raining, it's probably them."We just want it to go away so that our grandchildren won't know what it is," Yocham said of breast cancer.To donate to the team visit: http://www.the3day.org/site/TR/Events/General?fr_id=1170&pg=pfind and search for team name Beautiful Soles or for one of the participant's names.

Who's ever heard of a Snake-Rockie???
This is what happens when you let 4 year olds pick your soccer team name......."Snake-Rockies". Anyhow, the Snake-Rockies had their first game this morning and WON, 12-0. Connor actually did a great job and scored a goal. There is nothing cuter than 4 year old soccer! Here are a few pics of the game. Oh, and I threw one in of sister....how she spent her time watching the game.

THIS IS FUN!
Oh, thanks Sharon....this is fun. Mom, how funny is it that one of your songs was "Get Back"? (that is Camdyn's favorite song) OK, here is the Sears' family results:
Jonelle's Birthday: "Hotel California" The Eagles
Matt's Birthday: " The One that You Love" Air Supply
Connor's Birthday: "Hey Ya" Outkast
Camdyn's Birthday: "London Bridge" Fergie
Is it any coincidence that the beginning of Camdyn's song it says, "oh, see it" over and over?????
Fun stuff.....I hope everyone does this and post it.
