It's a GIRL...Paisley Faith

Big Cousin Tucker was so proud...he kept saying "I LOVE my Baby Paisley"!







Proud Daddy!





All dolled up in the dress her Daddy bought her!





Hi strangers...it's been awhile! As most of you have already heard via Facebook or elsewhere, Kevin and I have a precious and perfect baby girl. Paisley Faith was born Saturday, July 11, 5:07 AM. She weight 6 lbs, 0 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. She has a head full of jet black hair just like her Daddy's. We are doing very well! I must say there's nothing like it! Here are a few pics of our beautiful baby girl..will try to keep posting but you all know it's busy being a Mommy! Take care! Oh...we finally opened ultrasound pic and it was right...will be posting that later!

Baby Benson Update (40 weeks, 2 days)...The End is in Site!

"I've already talked to many of you but just wanted to send out an update...went this morning to be hooked up to the monitor. All was well...had a few strong contractions...I had almost dilated to 3 cm and my cervix is very, very thin and she also stripped my membranes again so she told me that she felt confident that I would go into labor this weekend. If not, I will be induced on Tuesday, July 14. So either way, there will be a baby very soon:-) I am feeling pretty good...kind of feeling weird...having contractions and a lot of pressure and a little light headiness so I'm hoping that's all a sign:-) It won't be long now y'all:-)"

Baby Benson 40 weeks (Really 39 weeks, 6 days)

"Hi all...I was really hoping that I wouldn't be writing this post but here I find myself typing away. Our appointment went well this morning just not the progression that I wanted. Nothing has really changed since last week...same dilation,etc. She did strip my membranes to try and get things moving a little quicker so hopefully that will work along with staying busy doing and walking like she told me. Since I will be past my due date, they have to see me twice a week now. So it's back on Friday if nothing happens before and they will put the baby on the monitor which is normal just to be sure he/she is not under stress. So...hopefully we won't make it to that point but that's the plan."

Baby Benson's Nursery

I know I promised these quite some time ago (some of you have already seen on FB)...here they are FINALLY! There are still a few things that will be done...Baby B's name will go behind the crib once he or she is born and then there's a wall when you walk in the room that will have monkey's on it but I'm waiting on one more monkey to be hung...I heard my Aunt has that monkey for me but she hasn't given it to me just yet. Thanks to Brooks and Davey for those stripes:-)


Thanks to Shelley for helping out with these monkey's:-)



Check out the photo Miss Carol from Conway Photo took above the dresser...be sure to check out her blog for a few of my maternity pics (she's on my blogger list)! Thanks Miss Carol! And thanks to Amanda for the diaper cake you see:-)





Another thanks to Amanda for making the curtain:-)




And thanks to Ms. Randi who painted my belly and did my belly cast this past weekend:-)
