"Above all else, children need to know and feel they are loved, wanted, and appreciated. They need to be assured of that often. Obviously, this is a role parents should fill, and most often the mother can do it best." ~Ezra Taft Benson

Finally.... Our beautiful creation has arrived!!

Ok so we were on our way camping when we stopped @ Blue Mountain Food for some last minute things and I went to crawl up into the truck and WHAMMO!!! Stefanie's water broke!! I calmly walked back to the camper where Kirk was putting all the grocerys away and said... "babe my water just broke." Kirk gave me the deer in headlights look and said "lets go to the hospital" I calmly said "no we need to go home and get stuff..." So we went home and I took a shower and we got everything together within 15 min my contractions were 3 min apart... Things were progressing quickly!! So to make a huge long story short... Kayden made his grand entrance @ 3:12 AM August 2, 2008!! 8 hours of HARD LABOR... NON STOP, NO BREAKS in between contractions... Did I mention NO PAIN MEDICATION?? Yeah... But it was all worth it!!

We got home today @ 10:20 AM... I can't believe it... What an amazing thing!! BTW... IM EXAUSTED!! Love everyone and a HUGE thanks to my labor coach MRS. STACI LOU HOGGARD!! I think I would have died without her... And to my man and new proud papa Kirk... I love you babe and we created the most beautiful thing I have ever laid eyes on!!
