Springdale Divas

These 3 ladies have been close to Chad and his family since he was in high school. Linda and Trudy's sons are Chad 2 best life long friends and Cindy's daughter was also one of Chad's good high school friends. They have engulfed me with love ever since we met and I absolutely adore them. Harry loves them too!

Santa Baby

Santa Baby had a wonderful first Christmas! He did not do as well in new surroundings and strange faces but, before long he will be terrorizing those homes and loving on those new faces!
Harry is a great eater and a great sleeper but, we are struggling with getting them at the right times.
After a night of constant "snacking" Harry's mom woke up determined to get a 10 day old baby on a routine. So far so good, his mom introduced the pacifer today despite what the "books" and "people" say and it worked for this little guy. His mom has been calling different moms constantly getting advice and they have been so supportive to her and eager to help in any way. Let's hope Harry sleeps and eats better tonight because if he doesn't his mom may lose it. Harry's parents still have their "get out of jail free" passes for a few more days and it may be stretched to weeks....or even until the 2nd child! Harry wishes all of you Happy Holidays!

1 week old

We are in shock how fast time flies when you are falling in love!
Harry likes to sing Christmas songs! He fell asleep during "Silent Night"!!

Harry Meets Grann and Memaw

4 Generations!

Day 5 and Day6

I am a bit late on his Day 5 post but, better late than never! Harry's Papa and Mimi came to visit along with Uncle Scott and Aunt Amy. He sure was happy getting all of that attention. He has been doing so good at home, he is really an easy baby so far, but tomorrow is a new day, I am counting my blessings now. We are in Harry Land constantly!
He loves to look at the lights on the Christmas tree, it is one of his favorite things to do. I had to take a picture of him in action, if I didn't want to hold him so much, he would be content sitting there staring at the lights.

DAY 4

We are moving into survival mode, I figure we have a get out of jail free card for any mistakes we make these first 2 weeks. Harry did not want to sleep by himself this morning,who can blame him, it is much more fun sleeping with someone else! Daddy woke us with this picture!

Uncle Kirk and Aunt Rachel came over with pizza for the Warehouse! Harry loves to stare and coo at them! We received our swing in the mail today from my sweet Aunt Karen and Uncle Dale! I always want to unwrap my new gifts as soon as we get them! Kirk jumped in to help while Chad hogged Harry. Of course, Chad knew I would blog about this so he gave Harry up to Rachel and he helped finish it. We love them so much, and Harry obviously does too!

I couldn't resist!!!

My NEW LOVE!

Harry took his first bath tonight, he wasn't very happy about it but, boy does he smell yummy!
I am sorry I haven't blogged much, I have been spending my time with the most perfect little guy I know!
Yesterday was our first day and it was NOT easy. He had awful gas and he was not a sleeper. Today has been a dream day, let us see what tomorrow will bring.
I just had to post a few new pics and one of my favorite old ones. The one with Olivia cracks me up! His older cousin really wanted to give him her sister's bottle nad love on him.
We have been truly blessed by our beautiful baby boy. I just sit and stare at this baby! I knew I would feel this way, but I really got strucked by the love bug! We are a happy little Warehouse! More disgusting gushy posts to come!

From Daddy

Here Comes Harry

Looks like we will have a baby on Friday night or Saturday morning! More posts to come!

Down to the wire!

One week until Harry's due date! We are more ready than we can ever be! Can you tell from the last 2 posts? We have decided our house is always 10 minutes from perfectly clean! So, if we can get a 10 minute notice we will feel completely at ease to have this baby! Nothing new, I should know something on Wednesday but, until then we unpatiently wait for Baby Harry! My doctor did say he will not let this baby go past the 19th! ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS BABY HARRY!

BABY DANCE

All things are ready....except for baby! I know all women go through it, but I am not tough, I am not a patient, I am ready for Baby Harry to be out in the world! I have done every baby dance I can think of or heard of....cleaned the bathroom floors, eaten spicey foods, had every cowork tell him to come out ect....! Today we are making it a "lets due what we will never do in this cold weather with a baby"! We are going shopping, out to eat and to a movie! This is due to all of the advice from friends and family! Last night was the last night will hang out with Kirk and Rachel without a baby to bring over! Tomorrow night we are going out to eat with friends a new restaurant in town! Do a baby dance or a prayer for us!

2 weeks 2 long

I have realized that God makes those last 2 weeks so miserable so you will be completely ready for a baby! Why can't I be one of those lucky women who have their babies early!

On a pleasant note! I had a wonderful time at a shower the girls in our community group through Baby Harry! Chad and I joined a bible study with a group of 5 other married couples a year and a half ago and watched God use them to bless not only our spiritual life but our marriage! They all go to different churches than us but, it keeps us open minded and really stretches us to keep seeking God.

The shower was so special, they gave me tons of advice I had not heard before and prepared me more so for the after birth and bringing home baby! They are all moms with kids under 5 who opened my eyes to not only raising boys but, keeping those 3 weeks of chaos after baby comes home much easier! They are truly a blessing to us! I left the shower thinking....why hasn't anyone told me that! I also left with very special gifts that I AM DYING TO USE! I have all of the needs and wants for a baby, now I just WANT AND NEED the baby! I feel so blessed to have so many friends who are great moms that are so willing to show my family so much love.

Although the highlight was celebrating Baby Harry we also had a great time at my school Christmas party and the church preschool party! Christmas is a great time to have a baby because, I am not constantly consumed with the thought that he may be coming any minute!

Snowed In and Contraction

Who wants to be stuck at home waiting for a baby! We got out at lunch yesterday and school was canceled today. I know I complain about working and being 9 months pregnant but, I would rather be doing something than sitting at home!
I have been having light contractions! WHOO HOO! I just need to know that something is happening in there! I have only had 3 but, it is a sign that a baby is in there and maybe getting ready to come out!
My doctor's appt was canceled because of the snow so, I will know something on Monday! Watching Grey's has been freaking me out with all their baby problems! It would be nice if Adison would just deliver a baby and everything be perfect!
