just go with the flow , in deeper water...

 So my last post announced our new expected addition.... and HE'S HERE ..

after a pregnancy that was SO different than my last 3 ,and about 2-3 weeks of early/slow labor ,a 4th cesarean that resulted in anemia and a spinal headache we were blessed with the littlest brother in our house , who was ironically also our biggest baby . Weighing in at 9lbs 9oz and 21 3/4 inches long , David Owen joined us on February 7th at 8:51am . He is just about perfect and everyone is adjusting very nicely .

Here are Big Sister and Biggest Brother , waiting my mom was great enough to bring them up to the hospital early in the morning so that they could meet their new littlest brother , this is them waiting.
  And here he is ,the littlest brother.
 Biggest brother loving him , he was SO excited to have been there and to be one of the first to hold him and see him . He's so in love with him .
  While another brother wasn't on the top of her list, she's in love with him , and probably the BEST big sister anywhere around.
  My mom, this makes her 9th grand child. Who was ironically 9lbs 9oz.
 Sweet baby Owen , one day old.
 Since his birth he's done lots - had his first bath at 3 weeks old in his Tummy Tub  he absolutely loved it
He has spent an afternoon outside enjoying some of the random 77 degree weather days we've had



so while I don't know what I am really doing with 4 kids , Softball for Big sister , and Baseball for the big brothers , in two different leagues, all starting in the next 2 weeks. While the Daddy of the house is still a workaholic and we are trying to buy a house and learn to live debt free.... we're having fun and just going with the flow even though it seems the water is getting deeper.
