OKay so this is a little late...but it's here none the less!!

Collin James Brownlee finally joined our family on March 10, 2009 after a schedule induction. They found out I had a liver condition that was dangerous to deliver later on and after an successful amnio that showed his lungs were mature we were able to start the induction. He was 6lbs 3oz and 19 inches long. Can you imagine if he would have gone full term???

He's super sweet! The kids are absolutely in love with their brother and adjusting very well to having a new baby in the house. Things could not be better and our hearts could not be fuller! We are so thankful to Dr. Cahill and everyone else that has helped us through the last couple weeks! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

On a lighter note, Tracie and the family were here this weekend, and it was a much needed visit! I am however sad that Ben wasn't feeling well and had to go home! Hopefully he'll be better and able to come back later in the week. Oh how I cherish the moments with the kids! Matt has also had a burst of motivation and has been able to finish some of the projects around the house! We have been barbequing and just having a great time enjoying our family. Pretty sure Collin is just what we needed for some motivation and appreciation!

The next couple weeks we're just concentrating on finishing up the house, and moving on to the next chapter of our lives. I'll post when I can share more :)
