Look at that face










Well I know it's been a while since I updated and soooo much has happened. First, most importantly on Feb. 8th our little boy was born. My water broke at 1:15 am on Sunday and Gavin was born at 5:47 am. It was fast and intense, but so worth it. He was two and half weeks early and weighed 5 lbs 15 oz, and 19 1/4 inches long. He is so tiny, and I never thought we would have a baby this small. My Mom, Dad, Brent, Lori, and Hailey drove as fast as they could from Dallas and got to the hospital about 15 mins. before Gavin was here. I was so worried they wouldn't make it in time, and thrilled when they knocked on the door in between pushes. It was one of the most amazing nights of our lives!!! Shawn is such a great dad, and so much help. I'm truly blessed. We are all adjusting well to life at home, and I'm loveing being a new mom.








Also, about 3 weeks ago I had my baby shower in Dallas. It was so much fun to catch up with old and new friends. The food was amazing, I wanted tons of chocolate, and boy was there. Gavin got so many things. We are set!!! Enjoy the pictures of our new little one. They are a little out of order sorry. Still getting use to this whole blog thing. :)

Jacob and I are so happy for you guys! We love the pictures. They look great of all of you guys. I was telling J if I look half as good as you post pregnancy then I'm gonna be fine. You look great! I'm glad everything went well. I wanted you to get adjusted with everything before I called for all the details. So be expecting a phone call from me soon. :)
