Samuel Hillock Walser

So I'm finally getting around to updating my blog. A lot of things have happened over the past few weeks but the most important was the birth of our son! He came after 28 hours of labor and an unexpected C-section. Sunday, May 25 Samuel Walser was born. A beautiful, healthy baby boy. He is absolutely gorgeous and Carlin and I are so excited to have him here with us. We are adjusting the joys and frustrations of parenthood. Everytime I look into Samuel's little face I catch my breath. I can't believe that we made this little person. Here are some pictures from a very proud mother. Hope everyone enjoys!

Our Anniversary

Carlin and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary a few weeks early. We had to celebrate early due to the baby's due date being on our actual anniversary. Yes, May 27, 2006 Carlin and I were married and on May 27, 2008 this baby may (or may not) come. We decided to treat ourselves to a little getaway to Tulsa. It was so much fun and relaxing. I promised to be a "winger" and let Carlin do all the planning. We went to the best restaurant I have ever been to - the Polo Grill. The food was fabulous, everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. We then stayed at The Renaissance where they bumped us up to a suite free of charge for our anniversary! The next day we went to the mall, the Riverwalk, and the Oklahoma Aquarium.

Like I said - I became a "winger" instead of a "planner" and it was one of the best trips ever. Instead of worrying about getting to places or where we were going to eat I got to enjoy the company of my husband. This was especially nice since we have been so busy with school and a baby on the way. We know life only gets more hectic after the baby gets here and it was a very much needed and appreciated trip. Thank you love! Here are some pictures from our trip:

Graduation Day

I didn't go to the actual commencement - but I did go my College's reception and took pictures. We then all went out to eat at Joseppi's and had dessert at my parent's house. Here are some pictures from the day:
