Just so you know....

We've taken to snacking on jumbo marshmallows and chocolate chips around here. Haven't started wearing all dress clothes yet though.... just shorts with dress shirts ;)

If this makes no sense to you, then you have never needed to go to the grocery store REALLY REALLY bad and have never gotten so far behind on laundry that you aren't wearing jeans any more, but only dress clothes :)

I haven't forgotten about pictures.... must. get. pictures. off. camera. and. onto. computer.

Anyway, we are still here! And blissfully sleep deprived!! Also on a good note, I got my hair cut and we almost have the garden planted. And Michael is doing really good... It really is such a blessing to have a new little one around, and I marvel every day at the wonder of God's creation.


P.S. - The reason we are not wearing only dress clothes is because my wonderful husband has been keeping the laundry up for me.... (sigh)

We have a baby boy!!

Hi, just a quick update!

Michael Aidan was born Friday afternoon May 6th. He was 7 lb 8.5 oz and 19.5 inches. We came home yesterday from the hospital! What a wonderful Mother's Day gift!

Will try to post pictures soon. Thank you SO SO much for all your prayers!!!!

I Love My Grownups

Another priceless moment lying in bed with our 2 year old (although since I am so big and pregnant it is harder and harder to get out of her toddler bed when I lie down with her at night):

Sophia: Mom, I love you. I love Daddy too. I love my grownups. I really love my parents.

P.S. - I am over 3 cm dilated and 80% effaced, and if I do not have the baby before then, the doctor wants me to come in again on Friday for a re-check. If I have made more progress, she wants me to go ahead and go to the hospital since I usually have fairly fast (TRANSLATE: not easy, fast, majorly intense) labors. Please continue to pray for us! Many thanks :)
