Wow!

 Austin got his very first school picture taken and they turned out great! We were so proud of him!  It was really amazing when we puleed out a picture of Dustin taken when he was about 3 years old!  There is definately a very strong family resemblance.  Austin is a bit skinnier and has a different hair stlyle but they look so mcuh alike.   After having Haley we started trying to have another baby when she was about 9 months old... obviously God had other things in mind because Haley and Austin are a bit more than 3 years apart. There was so much sadness, dissappointments, and questions in those years when we were trying to get our second little baby but looking back on that I wouldn't change a bit of it because if God had done what I wanted then I wouldn't have Austin, and what a shame that would have been because he is such a perfect addition to our family!  I am so greatful that God doesn't always give us what we want when we want it, his timing was so much better for us. So after a few losses and some fertilty treatment we found out that a baby boy was coming, we were so excited!  Dustin and I argued and argued about what to name this sweet little boy...  Dustin won, I DID NOT want to name him Austin Wayne!!!  But now when I look at how much he and his daddy look alike it seems perfect that their names are only different by the first letter.  So Dustin get ready for this, you don't hear it often,  Dustin was right the name Austin Wayne was perfect for him.
