Pictures!

Here are a few pictures that I've been meaning to put up. Our little family is doing well. Deacon is such a good baby. He just sleeps all day long and occasionally wakes up. The first thing Mad does when she gets up is ask for "Kekon." She is the best big sister. Hope you enjoy!

How cute are my kids?

Out for a little walk.

I love this little girl!

Here's my little guy. So cute.

Baby Deacon

Deacon came on October 30th! Our original due date was November 10th but we were scheduled for a C-section on the 3rd. I started getting contractions a few days before he was born and I just thought they were the annoying braxton hicks. By Saturday, they were about 8 minutes apart and throughout the even they got closer and closer. I figured we would have him before the 3rd but I didn't think it'd be that night!

My contractions at this time were fairly painful and about 5 minutes apart. Finally at 2 am we started packing to head to the hospital. Once we got into the car my body went into overdrive and I was getting really painful contractions about every 3 minutes. We got to the hospital a little after 3 am and by this time my contractions were so painful I was just crying. The nurses checked me and I was already 7 cm dialated! They called the doctor in and Deacon was born, by C-section, at 4:21 am.

He is the sweetest little guy! I love him so much. Our first night home with him was rough because he just wanted to be held, but by night two he is sleeping through the night and has been waking up for only 2-3 feedings. He is such a doll. I'll post more pictures as soon as Scott transfers them from my phone to the computer.

Mad has been so great through this process. She just loves him. She is always wanting to give him kisses and hugs. When she wakes up she always ask for, "Kecon." When he cries she'll go and try and put his binkie in his mouth. It's very cute. We are just loving having our two cute little kids. We're very blessed!
