Apr. 18, 2008 - God's Gift to us
Figured it was about time I shared the news of our little gift from God! Sorry - just haven't been spending any time at the computer lately LOL!
Let's see - on March 25th I had a dr. appt and was 80% effaced and dialated to 4.5. A "time bomb" according to my doctor. I had tons of contractions the next 2 days - went mental trying to time them to see if they were 5 min apart for 1 hour etc.... but of course usually it would be 5min, 5min, 5min, 5min (I'm thinking "this is it") then 10min, 12, min, 5min etc.... in other words, never stayed consistent. Finally on the 26th at 11pm or so my water broke and I went to the hospital. Was dialated to between a 6 and a 7 when I got there. they said, rest as best I can etc... that it would be a while..... 3 hours later he was born LOL. I'm quite proud to say I went "natural" :) which was what I had wanted to do.
So, here are some pics of our new bundle of joy born on March 27th!
He looks exactly like his brother did! I mean exactly - except for baby has a bit longer side burns :)
things have been a bit rough with breastfeeding and no sleep and all - but despite all MY issues - he's growing and doing well! Pray for us when you think of it. Thanks!

He is just precious!!!!! I'm am rejoicing and praising God for blessing you with this adorable little miracle.
Kayleigh is the spitting image of Mackenzie. It's freaky. I wonder if they'll continue to look like their older siblings as they grow up?
What did you name him?
