Welcome Pierce!

We would like to annouce the newest member of our family - Joseph "Pierce" - Pierce decided to come on his own despite the well organized induction date I had planned for him this Wednesday. Monday night Brian and I had a last minute dinner night out planned. Conviently seconds after the babysitter arrived at 6:45 my water broke -needless to say we ended up going to the hospital instead of dinner! After a few hours at 4cm they started pitocin to speed the process - in less than 2 hours I dilated from 4 to 8cm and at 1:16 am Pierce was born at 7Lb 15oz, and 21 inches. We are so grateful for a healthy delivery and a healthy son. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers! More pictures to come

Awaiting our little one

I am on countdown. I went to the doctor today and am at 3 cm, and we have an induction scheduled for next Wednesday if little man does not decide to come sooner. Either way we are excited and ready to meet him! Here is a picture of me actually from today at 39 weeks and pictures of the nursery

Afternoon at the Farm

We had a great afternoon and evening with several of my good friends from high school last night. My good friend Rachel's dad lives on the most beautiful farm and they so graciously opened it to all of us -kids including to run, play and enjoy the beautiful night. Alyce was in town from Atlanta with her new precious baby girl Hayden -have you ever seen so much hair!!! The rest of the kids had a great time feeding and catching fish, picking blueberries, and just running themselves tired. I had such a great time catching up with dear friends I do not get to see enough and enjoy a delcious pot luck dinner. On another note - my pregancy is moving along - with a little more than 2 weeks to go, I have a tentative induction scheduled August 26th - we will keep you posted!

Big Boy Room

As promised here are a few pictures of Connor's New big boy room. The only left to complete is the 3 frames above the bed which I have ordered some of his 18 month photos for. The bed does have a trundle that is where Connor sleeps - not yet in the Big bed! I also included a picture I took of Connor on the porch the other day - this is classic Connor - thumb in the mouth and puppy love on the head -always! too funny! Have a great week everyone!
