Maxwell has arrived!





We are so excited for the arrival of our new nephew! He was born early Tuesday morning at 2:35 a.m. Maxwell is his name. He weighed 6 pounds 6 ounces and was 19 inches long. Just a little guy! I was thrilled that she invited me in for the delivery. Earlier, Trish came down to Dani's so that we all could go for a walk. She didn't want to come at first, but I told her this would be the best thing for her if she was starting into labor. I told her to bring her bag just in case, (I didn't think she would really need it). We went for a good walk and when we arrived back at Dani's she sat down and had some water and all of a sudden she looked like she was having another pain; then a look of surpise came over her face. I said jokingly, "did your water just break" she look at us and said yes! Both Dani and I screamed and clapped our hands! It was pretty funny that we did it at the same time. She went to the hospital and then everything went quite fast. She was only in labor for 5 hours. She did great. I am so proud of her! She and Cody and the new baby Maxwell, are home now doing very well. She is a wonderful mom and very calm. She's been around a lot of babies! We are so happy for them!

Love the name Maxwell. I am so glad you have a blog so that we can still keep in touch - even though you're only 5 minutes away. :)
