New Year Update

The Wharton Family is doing very well this year. We made it past the holidays with flying colors.

Evie is officially a walker and has moved to the "Walker Room" at church. She says, "Dada", "Mama", and "Papa" very clearly. Other attempted words are "Bath", "Diaper" and "Boohbah". She is so precious! Christian and I enjoy watching her experience things for the first time and the happiness she brings to our life is priceless!

Baby Boy Wharton is doing great! I saw the midwife last week and he's measuring right on schedule. He moves all the time! He is a lot more active than I remember Evie being. He has a name and we're super excited about it. It's a unique, old-fashioned name, so people be prepared to give a positive response when you hear it for the first time! lol!

Christian is doing great with his workouts and new healthy meal lifestyle. I'm excited to join him after Baby Boy is here! He starts school at NorthWestern University next week, so his schedule will change quite a bit. We're grateful that we have a couple of months to adjust before Baby #2 arrives.

I have my good days and challenging days. Some days I'm full of energy and others I barely get off the couch. Evie has been a real trooper though. Thank God she is a good independent player and for her favorite friend, Cozy. I did have some breathing issues the past two weeks, but I think we've figured out it was acid reflux down low in my GI tract. I'm on a daily dose of Zantac and that seems to help a lot!

Sorry no pics or video this time. I'll work on getting some walking and talking shots! Take Care!
