Helping?


As Todd was picking some weeds out of our Strawberry Patch Savannah was certain that she could be of some assistance. So Todd finally scooted over and let her kneel on the pad beside him. I could not believe how cute it turned out that I just had to grab a picture. She, just like her Dad, hates kneeling on the rocks, so I think she thought the pad idea was as good as Todd does! And yes, this is July and our July jacket weather this year. It finally decided to warm up this past week and we are all grateful!

Baby Nate Is Here!


It took him 3 1/2 hours and 3 pushes, but he finally made it! We scheduled for me to get induced on Monday, June 29th as my doctor's wife was scheduled for the 30th and I didn't want to have to compete with her for his time! So we went in at 4 AM got all hooked up and started at 5 and by 8:31 he was here! It was intense for a while, but it all went well. I feel great, so much better than with Savannah, and I thought I felt good with her! Things are good and he's a great eater. So much different than Savannah on that one too!


He's totally boy and we're going to make sure everyone knows that! He's got a baseball shirt a sports hat and Air Jordan socks on! We dress him similar to this everyday so far! He weighed 8 lbs 3 ozs and was 20.5 inches long. A whole pound heavier and an inch and 1/2 longer than Savannah. Guess that's a boy for you!



One thing that is so different about getting induced is that you really know when your last day of pregnancy is! So for all of you who didn't get to see me closing in on those last days, here you go. This is Sunday night about midnight! The absolute last day I was pregnant! I couldn't even believe how funny I looked. No wonder everyone was stopping me in Walmart asking when I was due!
