This is my little corner of the web, devoted to directing you to my many other haunts. It's been a long time since I've done anything on here, so not everything is up-to-date.

IT'S A BOY!!! Josiah James was born on November 21st, 2009 at 3:54pm. Stats: 6lbs 11oz 18.5" long. His arrival was a huge answer to prayer. After another high-risk pregnancy with weekly ultrasounds to monitor the baby's health, we knew we had to make some decisions about delivering the baby early. Even though I wasn't crazy about the idea, we finally decided on an induction. Two days after Gwendolyn's 2nd birthday, and two days before I was scheduled to be induced, I spontaneously went into labor and delivered naturally. Yay! After being induced with Gwen, this time felt like a walk in the park; I had Josiah 3 hours after getting to the hospital and pushed for nine minutes (those nine minutes felt like an eternity, believe you me!).

There are always things we could still use, if you're interested! And hand-me-downs are just as appreciated! We have an ongoing Amazon Wish List - categorized into sections. THANKS!!!
