Updated family photo



So, apparently all it takes to have a baby nowadays is to post a picture of yourself on your blog and to tell everyone you are finally ready. My last post was just that, and that night I woke up to go to the bathroom and found that my water broke also. So exciting...

Then nothing, contractions didn't start. We went into the hospital around 4am, and I could have easily asked to be started but I still wanted to start on my own. Darrin and I started walking around 8am and walked until I wanted to drop, then we kept walking, and still nothing. I finally gave in and they gave me a pill that starts contractions. 4 hours later nothing. I was beginning to hate the hospital and I definitely hated walking. I am making it sound too bad, overall the waiting wasn't too bad, I got to be with Darrin all day (uninterrupted conversation even), I got a little daytime tv in (not so much into Oprah anymore, I decided) and I found out that the food isn't that great, but at least it was free (till we get the hospital bill). Around 6pm my contractions finally started, and then things moved very quickly. Our beautiful baby boy was born...

Sisterly love
The girls have adored him, Jaya will not put him down, Baylie and Eden have seriously probed and prodded him past the point of irritation and he just takes it all, what a little man!

Proud new Daddy

How Precious! We've been on vacation and I was curious to know if you had the baby. I'm so glad he arrived safely and it looks like everyone is doing well. We can't wait to meet him! I love that he has so many "little mothers!"

PS - I couldn't help but notice that you misspelled "Kyle", you just need to replace the "a" with a "y"
