Our Little Monkey Man!



When Eric and I had our ultrasound, the technician commented on how active Everett was. Having felt his big kicks for awhile, I definitely agreed with her. Now that he is here, I could not agree more. Eric has told me how he was an active child himself and I am afraid our little Everett is headed down that path! Everett is addicted to being swaddled and we feel that we have finally mastered the art of a really tight swaddle. Well today our little monkey man managed to get out of his swaddle and turn himself sideways in his bed. I love the disgruntled look on his face!

Everett Grey Is Here!






Everett made his appearance on May 16th at 2:10 pm.....three weeks early! I was very surprised when I woke up early Friday morning and discovered that my water had broken. We called the doctor and she said we needed to time the contractions for an hour. They were three minutes apart! After an hour we went to the hospital and were admitted. After eight hours of labor, Everett finally arrived at 6 pounds 9 ounces and 21 inches long.
