He is finally here!!!

We are so in love with the newest member of our family.  Ashton is the most beautiful baby boy I have ever seen.  He is so sweet and loving.   I am having the hardest time sharing him.  I just want to hold him all the time and kiss his little face off.  He is worth every shot, every negative pregnancy test, all the tears and longing.  He is our little miracle.







Here we are at the hospital just before they took me back to have surgery.  I was really nervous and so anxious to meet my little guy.  Jeremy looked so hot in his hospital scrubs.  He is the most supportive husband ever.  He loves me so much and takes the best care of me.  Lucky girl for sure.

 We were talking about how much he would weigh and how long he would be last week when we were putting his swing together.  I guessed 9lbs 3oz 21 in.  Jeremy guessed 7lbs 14oz 21 in.  He was spot on both categories.  He was so happy, he was yelling it to me across the operating room.  He guessed that because 7/14 is his birthday.   

My first time holding my sweet little boy.  I was amazed by him, he is absolutely precious.  Very proud momma.

Hanging out with my dad.  He gave me my first bath all by himself.  Mommy was about to have a heart attack because I was so wet and slippery and she thought my daddy would drop me =-)
 Meeting my sisters for the first time.  They are so pretty and they love me so much!!
 Aunt Krissy and Uncle Brett came by to meet me.

 Grandpa and Grandma Webb think I am the cutest little baby.  They love me.

Leia brought my mommy doughnuts to the hospital and dinner to our house this week.  I think she was trying to distract my family so she could hold me the whole time. 
This is my Grandma D.  She is so in love with me already.  She told my daddy that he has moved down on her list of favorites =-)

 Me and mommy.
 I'm so cute.
 Sick of that stupid flash in my face
 This is my bassinet in mommy and daddy's room. 
 Me and my biggest sister Arianne.
Me and my beautiful sisters Arianne and Alyssa.  Alyssa is dressed up in her rocker outfit for school.  She is so funny.
 Sleepy baby
 I got my eye on you.
 So precious.
 Staring at my mommy.  I love her.
Most precious little man.

We are having our pictures done professionally on Wednesday.  I am so excited to finally have family pictures done.  They will mostly be his newborn pics but we wanted some with his sisters and a few of all of us.  I will post them as soon as they are done.  Thanks so much for being so supportive.  We love all of our friends and family.

The dreaded first post

I am really trying to get the hang of this whole blogging thing.  A friend at work has a great blog that his wife keeps up with and I just love it.  With all of the great things going on in our life, I don't really know where to start.

Let's see....

Arianne was in her first school play recently.  She was in the ensemble.  She did an amazing job.  When she was a little girl, she was so shy that I never imagined I would see her on a stage singing and performing.  She is so beautiful. 


We also just had a party for her 12th birthday.  I know, how am I old enough to have a 12 year old daughter!!!




Alyssa will be playing machine pitch baseball this summer.  She is so excited.  I can't wait to check out her skills.  She loves to run and play outside.  She is definitely not a girlie girl.  Arianne and her friends painted her nails and braided her hair.  She looked so cute but absolutely hated it.  She is so funny.






I was really lucky over the past few months, Jer's grandma, Leia, and Krissi all threw me a baby shower for Ashton.  He is already so spoiled.  We were fortunate enough to get everything we need for him.  We had a great time.






Jer has been working really hard to get everything ready for our little guy.  He is so amazing.  Here is a picture of the nursery.  He painted and hung up his letters for his room.



I almost forgot about Easter!!  The girls found eggs and got some great stuff from the Easter Bunny.  Suki even had a little fun with it.






And the best news of all.  I went to the doctor on Friday and scheduled my c-section for May 25th at 7:30.  I am so excited to be done with pregnancy.  It has been a rough one.  I guess I will never be one of those women who love being pregnant.  Oh well, he will be worth it.  Stay tuned...
