Baby Day Part 1

My due date was August 27th.  Because I had had a c-section with Ryan, I can no longer be induced.  That day came and went... and went and went.  I scheduled a c-section for September 4th - just in case I never went into labor, but hoping I would.  But despite all my hoping and praying and walking and sitting on a birthing ball... I never did. So, September 4th it was.  This was the big day.  I was so nervous to be walking into surgery, but more excited that we were going to meet our little Jace.

The last picture as a family of 4.  Right before I left for the hospital.

Walking into the hospital.  

Last belly shot.  I didn't realize how big I actually was until I saw this picture.  I was HUGE!  

Prepped and ready to go.  I wasn't sure if I should be smiling or crying at this point.  Luckily, the smile won out.

Walking myself to the OR.  With a pee bag in hand.  

Minutes away from meeting out baby.  I was so glad to have Brett at my side!

Summer Rewind

A few more pictures of our fun summer vacation... looking back on these pictures was so fun!  We had such a great time in UT with all of our family.  I also look at some of these pictures of our sweet boys ( husband included) and they just take my breath away.  I am so grateful they are mine forever.

Ryan with all of the Murphy cousins. This is the youngest half of MY cousins.  Ryan sure loved being with them!

Luke's "cold face".  A favorite of my brothers!

Ryan didn't really like being in the water

Luke loved it!
