Mason James

We are so blessed to have welcomed Mason James into our family on July 6th.  I went into labor just after noon and about 15 minutes into it we realized we needed to be on our way to the hospital as soon as possible.  Thankfully my friend Meagan was just down the road at her sisters and was able to pick up Myles right away.  After a crazy ride to the hospital and a glorious epidural, Mason entered the world at 2:32pm.  He weighed 7 pounds 4 ounces and was 18 inches long with brown hair and blue eyes. 

Note: if expecting, make sure you have gas in your car, especially when the doctor tells you the day before you will probably go into labor in the next day or so- oops:)

Praising God for blessing us with another beautiful, healthy baby boy!

Homestretch

Well with July here, we are in the homestretch.  18 days until our due date.  Besides sorting through the numerous totes of baby stuff here's a little peek at how we've been keep busy lately.

Taking advantage of the warm weather and spending time in the yard.  This is Molly and Blackfoot, our neighbors.  Besides them we have had a flock of turkeys that hang out in the yard, along with some deer and a snake.  Myles was kind enough to point out the snake to me.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
