Never the Same Again

Coleman Roosevelt arrived Monday morning at 8:14 weighing 8 pounds 7 ounces and the world will never be the same again!

We are so elated to have such a wonderful little, big addition to our family!

We are so thankful for all the prayers that were lifted up on our behalf.  The entire process was much better this time around.  Registration was even a pleasant process.  There were a few tough times during the C-Section but all is well.  My recovery was unbelievable!  I was up walking around the day of the C-Section.

L.J. was so excited to finally meet Coleman.  He wants to hold him, kiss him, hug him, touch him, etc.  Please continue to pray for their relationship with each other.

Well, here are all the fun pictures.


Our first family photo of the four of us.



Can you believe I was able to look at this view of downtown for four days?  It was even more spectacular at night.  I slept with the drapes open and continually soaked it all in.



My guys!  Look at those smiles.  Coleman would have participated if he would have been awake.  I can't wait to see his teeth come in.  We've noticed that he has inherited his mommy's gap in between his front two teeth.  My braces closed my gap but I think he will be handsome with his.  That means no braces for you Coleman :)  Oh, we'll see.



Me and my boyz . . .



Our last family picture before leaving the hospital.


Coleman all strapped in ready to go home.  That was until I found out how cold it was outside.  When I went into the hospital we were enjoying temperatures in the upper 70's.  Boy do things change in four days.



Here the momma finally got it right.  This little boy is now ready to go home since he has a coat on.




Hi, I'm Colman or as the people around here say, "Coley Cole".  I've finally made it home and this place is O.K. along with the people that live here.  I am excited that God gave me them as a family especially since I have a GREAT big brother named L.J. who loves me.


Here I am opening my eyes for the first time at home.  I told you I was going to like this place before I even saw it.

Blogging already? I am so excited about Coleman's arrival! Every time I was at the hospital I wanted to hold your bundle of joy! Now you know I'm only 15-20 minutes away when you need to get some sleep/rest/break/shower/one-on-one time or whatever! I love you girl!

Hi, lady! Just peeking in on a few friends before hitting the hay. Oh, my secret on getting the house clean is.....put those childlings to work! LOL
We have assigned chores but when they were smaller ( I had 3 in diapers at the same time), I did most of the cleaning, of course. But I would make them put away their own toys. That was a start. The list grew as they grew. Sometimes you just have to do a little at a time. Take it easy, Mommy. I'm with the docs on that one. ;-)
