Our Son Arrives...





*Today is my baby's 3rd birthday!! This was the post on the actual day of his birth! I can't believe it's already been 3 years! *

I can't go into a great deal of detail yet but the pictures will do a little bit to describe one of the most amazing days of our lives. We had Davis Grey Parks at 5:15 on Febraury 11th and he was 7 pounds and 20 inches long. I say this with a great deal of joy in that I delivered our child. I'll go into more detail when we come home on Wednesday but for now here's a taste of Davis.

Firsts...

I experienced a first today with having a little boy. We were in the carpool today waiting to pick up Paige, and Davis had to go potty. Thankfully he just had to tee tee, but at this point there's not alot we can do about that sans letting him pee outside with everyone giving you the stink eye! So...I search the van for something he can pee in. The only thing I can find is a few ziploc bags. So...yep. I let him pee in a ziploc bag, triple bagged it, and threw it in the nearest garbage can! Gross, I know, but we had to do what we had to do! Don't judge me.

Making a comeback...

I know...I know.... I've been missing for quite some time. I took a little sabbatical, and our computer is not reading our memory card so I need an external card reader that Scott always has with him! I have lots of pics that I want to post;) We are doing well. After our bout of sickness we have really tried to stay well. I am running the marathon in New Orleans this Sunday and I am praying that we all stay well because my parents will be keeping my little ones. I can't even believe all of the bugs that are flying around right now! It is a miracle in and of itself that we have not gotten anything else. So, plese pray with us that the Lord would keep us healthy! Annalee is staying home with me this semester, and I have REALLY enjoyed her being here:) She is a really fun little girl! She will be starting kindergarten next year (what?!), so I am really cherishing having her with me:) Davis will be turning 3 this week, and Paige will be turning 7 next week! EEEEEEK!!! This is all going by way too fast! I enjoy, by God's grace, being a mother. I am sinful, and I mess up ALOT! But, it really is a gift from the Lord. He is really kind to allow me to experience motherhood and see Him in a greater perspective.
