Maggie is here!! Yay! She was born on Friday, October 23rd at 7:51 a.m. She weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and is 19 inches long. She is beautiful and is tiny! We are so blessed.

Everything went so well with my surgery. It was better than Hunter's delivery. And we love Hendrick!! It is the BEST hospital with the best staff! We had such an awesome experience, just like last time. We are so thankful for my doctor, Maggie's doctor, and all the nurses, especially Julie!

My biggest worry was for Hunter and the Lord has just taken care of him and me. I was just so worried about how he would handle everything. He has done amazing!!! He stayed at home with one of my very best friends, Amanda, while i was in surgery. She, who is also very pregnant, came to keep him at 7 in the morning on her day off! She is so sweet! They had a blast! He came to the hospital shortly after I was out of recovery. He was sooo sweet. He just couldn't wait to see Maggie. He wanted to hold her! He wanted to sit with me in bed. He ran over and kissed her on the head over and over again. He was so sweet!! And he is still so sweet around her. He tells people that she is his sister. He really does love her. Thank you, Lord! He truly is the best big brother!!!

Pumpkin Patch 2009

We made our traditional trip to the Pumpkin Patch on Friday. We all had so much fun! Hunter loved it! He ran and ran and ran! Here are some pictures from Friday! This 1st one is Hunter and Parker sitting on a swing. Parker is Stephanie's son who works with Ben. They had a lot of fun together.

Here is Hunter with this stuffed dog. He kept giving it high fives and a few hugs.
Hunter running...
and running some more. We don't walk anywhere! We run!
Hunter picked a "tiny little pumpkin" for Maggie and a bigger one for him. He also helped us pick out a Daddy and Mommy size pumpkin. After running through the pumpkins for a while we went on a hay ride. What a great afternoon!!!

Coach and Sword Fights


I have the best Daddy in the world, both earthly and heavenly. Yesterday my Dad had to go out to west Texas with his job and check some rigs. He works for an oil company in G-ville and every once in a while he has to take a trip to west tx to check some the rigs out there. I'm not really sure exactly what he does...something with the parts on the rigs and keeping track of which parts are where, anyway he got to stop by yesterday morning and just say hello. It was good to see him, but it was such a short visit. So on his way back through last night he came and spend the night. Hunter was so excited! He has been wanting to sword fight with Coach and he finally got to! It was so funny to watch them play! My Daddy is so much fun! They had a great time. He also took us out to eat and then watched Toy Story until bedtime with Hunter. Unfortunately he left very, very early this morning. He needed to get back to work. :( Hunter's first words this morning were "Where's Coach? I want to go with Coach!" I am so thankful that Hunter gets to play and have fun with my Dad. Thank you Dad for staying with us last night!! We love you! :)
