Did you know...

... that babies come out your feet according to Aidan. Just thought you might like to know.

A Few New Pictures...

In the hospital getting ready to go home...

Real world... here I come!

At home, wide awake!


Both the kids are in love with him! They fought this morning over whose turn it was to hold him and while they are holding him you can find them saying things like:
Brinn: It's okay baby Owen, Brinny's here.
Don't cry
Your so cute!
Aidan: I love you Owen.
Your a good baby brother.

Owen has sure been smothered with love since he has been home... just like it should be! I will take and post some more pictures soon!

PS- Thanks for all the well-wishes and comments! We love you all!

Welcome Owen!!!

Our little guy Owen was born today at 12:20pm. Labor and delivery went wonderful! My doctor said if all women had babies like I do he would be out of a job :) We are doing great... so without further a-due, meet Owen!







And my personal favorite picture...

I am sure there will be many more pictures to come in the next couple of days so check back often!

24 Hours From Now...

... We should be holding the little guy in our arms. Can't wait! Don't worry.... we will keep you posted with updates and pictures as soon as we can!

Aidanisms... (and an update)

- All day yesterday Aidan was asking if we could watch lip sticks, and for the life of me I could not figure out what in the world he was talking about. Any guesses? Finally, I figured out that he wanted to watch the Olympics :)

- On our way to my doctors appointment Aidan informed us he wanted to take the alligator aka elevator.

- And for your information our family sandwich in bed this morning as decided by Aidan was as follows:
Dad: Bread
Aidan: Peanut Butter
Brinn: Jam
Baby Brother: Pickles
Mom: Bread
Sounds good doesn't it?

UPDATE:
Went to the doctor yesterday and I am 4 cm dilated. Dr. told David he should probably not go out of town so David is home for good until after this little guy makes his grand arrival. So anytime or for sure on Monday... can't wait!

A light....

There is a light at the end of the tunnel! We are set to be induced on Feb. 22, unless the little guy decides to come earlier on his own (which we are actually hoping does not happen since David will be out of town 9 out of the next 11 days.) YEAH!!!

Still No Baby...

Passing the time...


... Crafting

Turned these...

... into these for Brinn's room


Made burp cloths: some for gifts, some for my little guy

... these are still a work in progress.


Cleaning...



Nesting...



My goal is to have hospital bags packed, baby clothes (from storage) washed, car seat in, and play pen/bassinet up by the end of the week. Wish me luck!
