She's Here!




Kayla Grace was born on Friday at 3:11 pm. After 2 days of contractions she made her appearance. She has a ton of dark hair and the same little nose as her sister. She weighted 7lbs. 6oz. One ounce less than Emma. So much for the big baby. She is 21 inches long and we have no idea who she looks like (although she has my hair). Here are some pictures until we get some more and I get a good nights sleep!

Change

This is my last time to write before I'm off to the hospital to have baby girl number 2. I will be "checking into" Wilson Hospital Wednesday evening and will be induced on Thursday morning. Baby sister ( as she is called by Emma) has a big body and the dr didn't want to wait until my due date, to keep her from breaking any shoulder bones coming out. Its comforting and nerve racking knowing when I'm going in. It helps with planning, but then makes me nervous actually knowing. I just keep reminding myself its all in God's hands, what do I need to be nervous about! :) So the next time I write, I will hopefully have pictures of the new baby! See you then!

We are blessed













We had a wonderful Christmas celebrating with our family. My sister and her husband flew in from Colorado and my sister in law and brother in law flew in from Cincinnati. Emma loved all her gifts and wanted to know if all the presents were for her! Here are a few of the highlights from the holidays. The picture of the "adults" is of my sisters and my cousins. This year my Papa gave us each a set of the state quarters that he has been collecting for the last 8 years. None of us had any idea he had been collecting each one of us a set.
