Deacon's First Photo shoot

So I was going to wait till I got all of my birth announcements out before I posted these pictures but I just couldn't wait anymore. He is just too cute and I love how they turned out. Josh and I took these pictures about a week ago. By the way, I am feeling much better. I just got out of the hospital yesterday after having a D&C done on saturday. I lost a lot of blood during the procedure and so I had to stay overnight to have a blood transfusion. But hopefully things will get better for me from here on out. I have been really sick the past couple weeks since I had him due to left over placenta that did not come out during delivery. So hopefully it is all taken care of and I will feel well enough to fly home to Idaho on wednesday. My brother Scott is getting married this saturday and my step brother Dylan is getting married two weeks later. I am so excited to be there for both weddings and Thanksgiving in between. It will be nice for everyone to be able to see Deacon while he is still so small too. THANK YOU to everyone who has done so much for our family over the past couple weeks. The meals have been so good and so nice and thank you Slavka and Lindsey for watching Arlie for me so much. I truly feel so blessed to have people in my life that care so much and are so willing to help. It means so much to me. Well hope you all like the pics. I do but I am a little byist. Love to all.

And More

Here are a couple more. This was as soon as we got home from the hospital. Arlie was so excited to see Deacon and couldn't wait to hold him. And anytime someone stops by the house she can't wait to show him off. She gets so excited and says hurry come see look and points to the baby. It is so cute. Hopefully it stays that way. We are already having problems with the potty though. It is like pulling teeth to get her to go now. And I guess while we were gone she had lots of accidents. I hope it gets better instead of worse.

Another picture

I took this before we left the hospital. All is going ok. I am recovering. Thanks everyone for your nice comments. And for everyone who has offered to help us out. It really means a lot to us. I am sure there will be more pictures to come.

Deacon Joshua 0603 2 November 2008

Tiff gave birth to Deacon Joshua at 0603 on Sunday November 2nd...Both her and baby are now doing great. He is a beautiful baby boy; although, these pictures are rather scary. Sorry I don't have Tiff's photo editing skills. Here is the story...
So on Saturday...Tiff decided she was going to have the baby and went out for a walk/jog/jump. Well it didn't work but in the process she slipped and fell. Later on in the day we decided it was best to get checked out just to make sure all was ok. So we went to the hospital around 5pm. They checked her out and said she was good to go. Well then the on-call doc came in and checked her and said she was dilated to a 4 and she wanted to induce her that night. She was induce at about 10 P.M....YEAH for staying up all night.
