Happy America Day

Julia is almost 6 weeks old now. Shes been through a lot since ive last updated you guys. Her umbilical cord fell off, she went to disney world, shes been to see 5 movies, went to memphis to see Grandma and Grandpa, SHES SMILED!, cried through the night (a few times), walked in a parade, hung out at a coffee shop, and took her first real bath. She is such a joy to have around. Our life is constantly changing. I'm sorry that its been a while since ive last updated this. Grandmothers and Great-grandmothers please dont disown me.

Here are some great pictures of her this last month. One of these is my new favorite picture. (the black stuff all over her hands is ink from when we did handprints haha)

Some More Pictures of Baby J

Hey everyone. Julia is now 10 days old and each day we love her more than the previous. She has been such a great baby so far. She only cries when shes hungry or dirty haha. We all went to the doctor for her checkup yesterday and she is perfectly healthy. She also is starting to open her eyes more and more as you can see!

We love you all

Day of days

Well just as Claire was pondering the legitimacy of her pregnancy, we wound up making an early morning visit to the hospital. After a few hours of labor and nervous worrying, God blessed us with a beautiful 8lb 13oz chunk of baby. (May 26th 11:49am) Claire has done so well throughout all of this. We are scheduled to stay at the hospital through monday morning. Thank you everyone for all of your help and gifts! I will try to keep this thing updated as much as possible. I am just new to the whole blogging thing.

We gots a baby on the way!

Claire has decided that she is going to start pushing tomorrow no matter what? Lets all hope this goes well for her and Bennett.
