Introducing… Megan Rose Stout!

You should all be proud of me for posting my first blog, but this is definately something to blog about! Well, she's finally here. The doctor scheduled my C-Section 1 week after my due date to give me a chance to go into labor. I felt a few sporadic contractions, but other than that nothing happened, so C-Section it was. I was a little nervous about it, but having done it before I knew what to expect this time around. I went to bed very early the night before, thanks to an Ambien Alison gave me. We woke up at 4:00 am, arrived at the hospital at 5:30, was wheeled into the operation room at 7:30, and she was in my arms at 8:06!!! Sounds pretty easy, doesn't it? Actually it was. The hard part was standing up to take my first steps 24 hours later. I do have to say the pain has been minimal compared to Jordan's birth, probally due to the lack of a 24 hour labor and 2 hours of pusing. Things have gone relatively smoothly, thanks to both grandma's taking turns helping. Jordan has asjusted a lot better than we thought he would and he even gave her his first kisses this morning. Love you all!!!!!!

Springtime in Spokane ---- BRRRRRR!!!!

This is what we woke up to this morning the 29th of March!!!

Major and Barbie don't seem to mind the cold.

Evie's 4th Birthday.
Her special requests were pizza and strawberry shortcake.

She said it was the best day of her life.

Jared's 31st Birthday.

Everyone holding up their fingers to show how old they are. Benjamin thought he'd use his finger to experiment with the fire.

Evie and Benjamin are good buds...most of the time!

Last night Daddy was in charge of bathtime, so Benny got a mohawk.
