Anna Grace's Delivery Day

Anna Grace's delivery day was 

calm, fast, painful, beautiful, joyful, scary, surprising, 

loving, exhausting, sad, happy and so much more.

With the advice from a dear friend, let the pictures speak for themselves. But here are some interesting facts from the day!

*She was born in the same hospital room as Caleb

*We had the same midwife that delivered Caleb... Darlean I love you! Thank you!

*One of our delivery nurses was with us when we had Caleb.

*I was only in labor for 8 hours.

*We had a natural childbirth... drugs didn't work.

*My husband is my rock!

{thank you to my sister for taking some incredible pictures!}

Maternity Pictures

So better late then never... actually there are going to be a bunch of those types of posts coming in the next couple of days.

A few days before we welcomed Anna Grace into this world my sister came over to take some pictures. She did a wonderful job and I am so thankful that I have these sweet belly pictures. Aj took what seams like a million pictures, but here are just some of my favorite few!

Weekend Recap

I love when weekend are full of family time, laughter and love. This weekend was just that. 

Saturday morning Jeff thought it would be fun to take Caleb to the beach for his first time. Yes we live super close to the beach but we prefer the boat life and going to the sand bar. When we started getting him ready Caleb kept saying boat, boat, boat. Pointing to the back yard and trying to open the door. He was so confused to why we where getting in the car. That boy quickly became all smiles when we drove up to the beach.

 The water was soooo cold and this boy had zero interest going in. However digging in the sand was a huge hit. After a quick trip we had to leave and get ready to celebrate Nana's birthday.

My sweet Momma was having a little party to celebrate her birthday. Besides the family they had their best couple friends. Daddy made dinner and I made dessert. Instead of making momma a cake I went with a strawberry pie... if I may say myself, it was darn yummy!

When the friends left we pulled out the guitars for some singing. The video of Caleb singing Sweet Carolina is precious! It melts my heart every time I watch it!

Sunday Caleb went to hang out with Grandpa and Nana, while we went on the boat with some old friends. It was so nice catching up with them. We where at the sandbar for awhile and then took the boat to I.C. Sharks for some good grub and drinks. 

With all the fun we had I forgot a very important thing... SUNSCREEN! And now my poor skin is paying for it. I look ridiculous and hurt!!!!
