My sweet baby !!!




Sweet baby Cormac






My sweet boy's

I never thought i would be the Mom of 2 little boys. I absolutely love it! I can't get enough of these cuties and love to kiss there full little lips. Carston adores Cormac and talks to him in such a sweet little voice and loves to hold him and give him kisses. I hope these little guys will grow up to be best buddies, and always love there mommy as much as they do right now !




Crazy Carston !


Cartson is such a little stinker... We talked all morning about getting our pic's taken, and how he was going to say cheese for the camera... Ya right. Katie was a trooper and managed to snap a few shots of my crazy 3 yr old. Good thing he is so cute !



Our attempt at a family photo !

Here are a couple cute ones of Cormac at 2wks.





Our newest addition

Our first week home has been great. Carston is an awesome big brother and he loves Cormac so much. He gives him sweet kisses and holds him so good. Mike had been a champ. He has 2 wks off work and i changed my first and only diaper yesterday, because he was busy planting flowers.
We are enjoying this sweet little boy so much, and hoping he stays this good forever.




Cormac meets his family

Carston was so excited to meet his little brother. He has been so curious my whole pregnancy about what was in my tummy. He kept telling Cormac it was time to come out. He is so excited to share his toys with him and give him loves.
Carston loves his Lulu and was so happy to be with her the whole time we were in the hospital. I didn't have to worry an ounce about him, thanks to my mom and amy ! He had a great time playing with his cousins.

Pompa Don and GG. Glad they were up for this eventful weekend.

Introducing Cormac Charles Martin

Cormac Charles Martin
Born May 10th 2010
8lbs 6 oz (17 days early)
20 inches long
Sweet, Cuddly and sooo Cute!


My delivery with Cormac was amazing. I had lost my mucus plug (sorry.. kinda gross) on Thursday but my Dr was out of town until Monday... so i told him he had to wait. Mike worked the Mid on Sunday night and when he left for work on Sunday night I was dead asleep in bed with no signs of labor. I woke up around 3:00am with a little back pain and thought nothing of it.. until it woke me up again 10 minutes later. I called Mike and told him he might need to come home, but i would let him know. I jumped in the shower and while i was in there had a couple more contractions. I called mike again and told him i thought i was in labor and he needed to come home. I then called my Mom... so glad she lives across the street. She came over and calmed me down threw my painful contractions which were now coming close and hard. I drank a Diet Coke, because that is all i wanted when i was in labor with Carston and they don't let you have it once your at the hospital. Mike couldn't get home fast enough, by the time he got home at 5:10 am my contractions were every 4-5 minutes and lasting a good 1-2 minutes. We jumped in the car and drove to the hospital. It was a very long and painful ride.. I had kidney stones a couple of months ago and remember thinking it was as bad as contractions, but i was wrong !!
We got the the hospital and got to our room around 6:00am. My nurse checked me and I was already dilated to a 6 ! I was amazed, i didn't ever dilate with Carston even though my water broke. We hurried and got my epidural before it was too late and by the time i was done with that they were paging for a Dr and telling me to get ready to push. Mike and i were laughing because I was in Labor for 30 grueling hrs with Carston, and on this one we didn't even have time to sign all the paper work. The drugs worked fabulous and the delivery was amazing. Cormac was born at 7:30 am. He was perfect and BIG ! I got to hold and nurse my sweet baby right away and have enjoyed every minute since then !!!!

Playin with Pomps !



Carston loves his "Pomps". He loves to go and play ball, hide and seek and chase with him. We love living so close that he can do this just about anytime he wants to. These pictures are of him and Pompa at the Gardens. Since I am an emotional, tired and lazy prego momma.... Lulu and Pompa have been the best and take Carston alot!!

Carston was a good boy this year!!!!

Christmas morning was so fun this year. Carston asked Santa for a choo-choo table, and he must have been a really good boy because he got an awesome train table. He was so cute when he came out of his room and saw his trains. I thought we weren't going to get him out of the basement all morning but he was just as excited to open his presents under the tree. Dad's shoes were his other favorite present. This kid loves to dress up.. he loves to put on our shoes, wear hats, mittens, glasses and anything else he can.




Christmas Nativity



The kids had so much fun acting out the Nativity this Christmas. We now have enough kids to play the parts. Carston wasn't quite sure of his costume, but loves to do what his cousins are doing so he kept it on for the most part. Christmas time sure is FUN with a 2 yr old.



Pumpkin Patch

We love this time of year and one of our favorite things is going to the Rasmussen Pumpkin Patch. We had so much FUN playing in the Pumpkin's. Carston was trying to pick-up BIG Pumpkins, and loved pulling the wagons and playing with Abby and Baya.
