My little sister makes me laugh!

It's a GIRL!!

We are so excited we have a precious baby girl!! She was born Friday, July 11th at 3:15pm. Her name is Hanson Nash and she weighs 7pds 4oz and is 20" long.We named her Hanson after her daddy's middle name (of course she'll forever be a daddy's girl) and Nash was in memory of my precious friend, Jayne, who died of breast cancer this past year. Our precious baby girl has such a sweet disposition. She has been a great eater and great sleeper which we are very grateful for especially at night!! Her big brother absolutely adores her and says her name first thing in the morning and right after his nap. He loves to hold her and if it were up to him, she'd go everywhere he went!!! We feel truly blessed and as everyone has said....we hit the gender lotto!!
Thank you for all your prayers during this time!!

Baby's Room

We finally finished the babies nursery. Now, it finally seems real........yikes!! I went to the doctor on Tuesday and I am 1cm dilated. There is a chance I have to go in to the hospital Thursday night and get some medicine to thin my cervix. But hopefully nature will run its course and we will not have to go that route. But whatever the case.......we are having this baby next Friday. We are very excited and we'll continue to keep you posted.

Today was Madden's second surgery on his left eye and all went well. We were very blessed to have be given an earlier surgery time of 9am which was perfect. We woke Madden up, put him in the car, and drove 5 minutes to the surgical center (very lucky it is right down the street)! Madden was so cute with the nurses and keep calling the blood pressure monitor a cookoo clock which they thought was hilarious (hey, it's a circle and has numbers, could easily be one, right?)Erik went back to anesthesia with Madden and he said he did good. The wait was a long one or at least it felt like it but the doctor came in and assured us all went well. Madden had a great nap, we went for ice cream this afternoon and he seems back to his normal self---praise the Lord!!! Hopefully, tomorrow he will continue on the same rode of recovery and we can have a wonderful final weekend before baby "B" arrives next Friday!!
