I had an appointment today with a Fetal Medicine doctor (for high risk pregnancy). I was a little confused as to why my doctor (who I LOVE and respect)would send me with this pregnancy and not with Colton. He said the reason that I was going was due to spinabifia in Jett's family. Strange because the same factors were there with Colton.. but I went. Luckily, we got great news.. Camden is just as perfect as can be. Spine looks great, head looks great, and so does everything else!! I have to go see my doctor next week for a checkup and then the specialist again in 5 weeks just for one last look.
We also found out today that my cousin Adam and his girlfriend Sandy are expecting a baby BOY as well. Aeden Caleb Kenyon.. such a blessing :)
Here are two pictures from today of Camden. (the first one is my FAVORITE.. can you guess why... hint: Wreck 'em TECH!!)

Easter Pictures ( a few days late)
I meant to post these on Easter Sunday but things were a little hectic. I went with my boss and her daughter to San Diego for a work trip. It was not a fun trip, just because the travel was so bad. We flew from Baton Rouge to Houston, but due to bad weather, our flight was late getting to the gate.. we ran to the connecting flight, which was still parked at the gate, the door was just closing and we ran up.. of course, unlike TV the guy informed us that we were not there 15 minutes pre boarding time, so they gave our seats away (you would think Continential would have some policy that informs connecting flights that passengers are on board)... we sat around trying to get on standby and did not make it... so had to stay overnight in Houston. Monday we get up, sit through two standby's and finally Kristy gets a flight to Los Angelos.. and she rents a car and drives to San Diego. I told Alex if we don't get on by noon, then we are heading back to BR. Luckily we did get the last flight. The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful.. we meant to take the trolly to the zoo however, we ended up on the city bus.. which was a tad bit scary! Pictures of zoo will come later.
UPDATE ON DAD: He seems to be doing a lot better. He called and talked to Jett the other day. His heartbeat is not where the doctors would like it to be, so he is going to be on medication for three weeks, then he will go back to the doctor and possibly have to have his heart shocked again. We are all so thankful for the prayers and emails asking about him... we love him so much and are just worried about him... I will keep posting updates.
EASTER: Jett, Colton, Krista and I went to church Sunday morning with Kim, Chris and Ryland. We hunted eggs at Granny's house with Tia Leah, Uncle Brandong (Boo Boo), Uncle Max, Gran and Pop Pop. Colton LOVED finding the eggs... he did not enjoy putting them in his basket.. maybe next year!!
Enjoy the pictures:

All seems well
Kala posted this on her blog:
"Dad went in for his procedure around 8:30 this morning. Everything went good. They found no blood clots and Shocked his heart two times. His heart is at 90%. Still not what the doctors would like to see it at or what they consider normal. So they are giving him a series of 3 shots. If this doesnt make his heart beat normally they will keep him on a blood thinner with weekly lab tests for around three weeks, and then try to reshock his heart again. So pray that the shots will work and that he will beable to go home by Wednesday. He is ready to go home, if you could see him you wouldn't even think anything was wrong. "
We are so thankful that the procedure went well. I will tell you, when something like this happens, it hits so close to home how FAR from home we really are. it was such a heartbreaking conversation between Jett and I.. do we go now.. do we wait.. what do we do?? I had a work trip that left on Sunday.. I was torn.. We feel like we miss out on all the good stuff, which really does suck but it is so hard when the bad stuff happens and we can't be there.. one day we know we will be closer..
Please keep Dad and Mom in your prayers.. we hope the good news continues..
we love y'all!

Dad Walker
We got a call yesterday that Dad was en route to the hospital.. he woke up to a very rapid heart beat and called his doc. She wanted him to come in.. long story short, they admitted him to the hospital to run some tests.. and being the weekend, we have to wait until Monday to run and find results.. so he will be in the hosptial until Monday.. they are calling it atrial fibrillation.
We will keep you updated.

We Caved!!
Dang it.. we caved.. well, I caved... all along Jett has wanted to find out the sex of the baby. Me, not so much.. then my friends at work started planning a shower and needed to know what I needed.. hence the pradicament (yes, I know spelled wrong)... do I find out or not.. I was wavering.
We went to the doc last time and the heartbeat was really high.. in the 160's.. Colton's was in the 130's. I started to sweat.. if this is a girl, I need to plan.. buy girl things... come up with a name I actually like.. because all along I was sure it was a boy (like I was sure with Colton).
So I caved.. we went to the doctor today and guess what.. she saw a PENIS!! WOO HOO, it is a boy!! I knew it! And am SO VERY EXCITED.. I really feell like I am meant to be a momma to all boys. Don't get me wrong, if I ever am blessed with a baby girl, I will love her as much as I do my boys (how cool does that sound) but I just see myself surounded in a house full of boys.. and that is my piece of heaven!!
We will name him Camden Joshua Walker.. The same initials as Jett and Colton, and Joshua in honor of my brother.. we will call him Cam for short.. Colton and Camden.. Our boys!!!!!
Of course, I went in on April Fool's day..I told the sono tech "you can tell me girl, you can tell me boy but please do NOT tell me twins" I don't think i could handle that!!!
Other than that, the doctor said all looks good. I got a little bit of trouble when he noticed my weight.. umm, not what you think.. I have actually lost 10 pounds since I got pregnant. With Colton, I only gained 10 pounds... while some women are calling me bad names right now...let me assure you, it kind of sucks.. this is the time I should be eating like I just don't care.. instead the thought of putting food in my mouth makes me wanna hurl (in fact, sometimes I do ha!) but I am going to work on it.. I am instructed not to lose any more.. I am so ass backwards.. who gets pregnant and LOSES weight??!!???
When I go back for my 20 week and get better sonogram pictures, I will post.. to be honest, I can't tell the boy parts in the picture anyway.. Jett claims he can but lets face it.. it is just a blur!!!
hope this finds you well!!
Love
