Paisley's VERY FIRST Flowers!

Hi y'all! I'm so behind on posting but y'all just hang in there...she's grown so much but I have so much I want to post so bare with me! Yes I bet you guessed that Big Cousin Tucker gave Paisley her very first flowers! It was the sweetest when he brought them to her...again made me tear up! He made them for her at church and when he came to visit he said "I have flowers for MY Paisley"! Aren't they the prettiest flowers you've ever seen!

I'm the BIG Cousin!

I know you all are thinking...FINALLY! Well, I have so much to blog about and don't know if I'll ever get it in...I'm just hoping to finish this post before Miss Paisley awakes....LOL! Anyway...you know I had to do a post on BIG cousin Tucker! He is so excited about being a big cousin and just gets so excited every time he sees Paisley! He must hold her every time and wants his picture taken with her every time as well! He is such a big help...LOVES to sing "You are so Beautiful" to her (this is the sweetest...it brings tears to my eyes every time) and sooths her when she's upset! He is just the sweetest...I can only hope Miss Paisley is as sweet as he is! Not sure if I've mentioned it before or not but he will be a BIG brother to a baby brother in December and what a great one he will be...they found out the gender the same day Miss Paisley came home from the hospital! Tucker opening his BIG cousin gift from Aunt Chele, Uncle KK, and Baby Paisley (take note of his shirt)! He was so excited!

And this was the same day we came home from the hospital...how sweet is this...you know I had to blow it up and put it in my den!

OBX bound

I know I haven't posted since we came home from the hospital...just sooo busy being a new Mommy! I hope to post so much when we get back from the OBX...will be there the entire week! I have so many pics to share! Y'all have a great week! Just wanted to let you all know I do still exist even though I'm not posting right now...LOL!

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:-)
