Growing so fast...

I cant believe that my sweet Ava is almost 4 months old!!!! She is a great baby and very laid back!! She loves to smile and has started laughing which is the best! Maddox still loves ehr and tells everyone that he "protects" her, it is the sweetest. We are currently attempting to get her to sleep in her bed which is not going so well but hopefully soon.

A few more....

Oooooh those cheeks!!!!!


Grandma with sweet Ava!

Here she is fresh from the womb! I will say that it just amazes me that she is able to come into this world the way that she did! The Lord is amazing and I wish so much that I was able to share this moment with my Grams. I miss her daily. I hope and pray that Ava Elloise inherited Grams' kindness and sincerity, she was an amazing woman and she would love to know she has a great grdgt named after her!

Ava's First Day

The Anesthesiologist took this picture!!! It is so great!!

Ava Elloise



Maddox loves his sister and was so happy to meet her! If you notice his little hand is under her head!!! Ava has been such a good baby so far and loves to cuddle, eat, and sleep! We plan to go home tomorrow and I will upload some more pictures. I am still in shock that we now have a son and a daughter, we are very blessed to have two healthy children. Thank you for all of the thoughts and prayers.

Great Wolf Lodge



We had the best time here! Maddox loved playing in the water and had more stamina than I thought he did, he could have played for hours I think without a nap!!!

Big Boy Slide!!


Madds finally gained the courage to go down this slide and when he did, he LOVED it! I was so proud and his smile is absolutely priceless!!!!

Vacation!!


Maddox loves to go on vacation and stay in a 'hotel' so after we had to cancel our Chicago trip due to several misfortunes we decided to take a one night vacation to great wolf lodge in Cincy! Maddox has a current obsession for water fountains and water falls and we normally search the city of louisville for the best ones so this place this was a dream for him. It was a 75,00 sg foot indoor water park, packed with water fountains! we had a great time and it was a special time for him and us before we become a family of four!!

Oh the things kids do....


Maddox thought it was great to "fall" and get Daddy to help him. This went on for about 20 mins. It was hilarious! At first he would fall on the time but then he realized it is much softer to "fall" on the pillows! Smart kid!
