Missionary Matt Club

 Lynn's brother Matt is serving an LDS mission in Oklahoma.  For Christmas he surprised the whole family with Tee shirts that he designed that said "Missionary Matt Club".  Here we are sporting ours!  We still need to send him a copy of us with the shirts on.  We love Matt and pray for him every day!

Pictures of Preston

 Here are some updated pictures of baby Preston.  He started smiling this week and everyone is so excited!  I'm not that great at taking pictures ever, so these are some of the best I've gotten recently.

Baby Preston

 We are so glad to have our little Preston here!  It was a very easy pregnancy for me.  I had a lot of energy and had no complications.  What a blessing!  I was scheduled for an induction on 12-12 at 8 am, but this little guy had different plans for us.  I went to pick up my mom from the airport around 10 pm I was having contractions the whole way there and back, but I didn't think much of it.  We came back home and I said, "These contractions are about 3 minutes apart and they hurt."  Lynn and my mom said, "Call the doctor!"  So I did and we ended up going to the hospital around midnight.  They made me walk the halls for a bit and bounce on a big ball.  They checked me and I was at a 6, so they let me have an epidural.  That was AMAZING!  I didn't feel a thing after that and was able to get a few moments of sleep.  Next thing I know it was time to push and three contractions later he was here!  He was born at 6:55 am.  He weighed 8 lbs. 12 oz.  We love him so much!

Our first family photo...I love how it captures the chaos of having four kids!

Porter loves little Preston

The kids loved coming and visiting.  They ate popsicles and held their baby brother.

Where did time go?
