OUR LATEST ADDITION: LINCOLN JACK!

Here he is!! Our chubby little guy made an early debut. In fact,
he came two weeks early while Chris was in Cali at his brother's
wedding. I called Chris at 1:30 am Cali time when my water broke, so
there weren't even flights going out until 6 am. He was devastated...I
told him I would not find out if it was a boy or girl until he got to the
hospital, so the nurses and doctor tried hard to keep it a secret and do
all diaper changes. Of course, as soon as they handed him to me I thought "boy" immediately. He looked just like a little football player...the biggest cheeks and even a big roll on the back of his neck.


The kids came with Chris to the hospital later that day and we
did the big unveiling. Cade, Chris and I thought it would be a boy
and Nate and Chloee guessed a girl.


Is that Daddy's boy or what?!


Melissa is my dear friend who took me to the hospital and helped
me through the entire process...and let me tell you a 10 pound baby
is much more of a process! I don't know how she can still look at me
the same way, but I couldn't have done it without her!


Chloee thinks it is OK to take home her new baby brother.
