Baby Boy!!!

There's the money shot! Two little legs with a little wee wee in between! lol
That's right, we have another bundle of baby blue headed our way in May. We are so excited Connor will get to have a baby brother!
We were able to find out the gender of baby boy Shacklett a little early because unfortunately I came down with the virus fifths disease. While this virus is harmless for children and adults normally, it is very dangerous in pregnancy. Unborn babies who contract the virus from their mothers can develop a very severe and complicated form of anemia that requires extensive treatment and life-saving measures.
We are sooooooo thankful that baby boy currently shows NO signs of the illness. However, we are not in the clear quite yet. Baby boy has to be monitored closely for the next 8 weeks with ultrasounds to watch for swelling (a sign of the anemia). If baby looks healthy and great at the end of the 8 weeks, then we will officially be in the clear.
We would really appreciate your prayers for our family and our precious baby boy, that he continues to thrive and stay healthy because we can't wait to meet him!
