The world just changed. Big Love Ahead!

After a long overdue arrival. Carson William entered into the world on 11/6/11. And I was lucky enough to be right there with my sister, for those hurting hours. And there were lots of hours. Lots of screams. A few laughs. But  most of all, love. Pouring out of everyone. The entire day. I love my family. Sisters are the best.



It hurt to see her in so much pain.And gave me a whole new appreciation for the Daddy's who make it through labors, too. Bill was amazing. Knowing exactly what to do and when. And I am so thankful he let me crowd my way in there to squeeze her hands, rub her back and breathe with her.



The baby was big! 8 pounds 11 ounces and came out at 9:51 PM. Michelle and I reversed roles. When I had Mason, she cried while I was in so much awe I didn't know what else to do. My tears were flowing. Life is amazing. This baby, he's a gift. Wonderful. Happiness all swaddled up into a perfect package.



I wish I was still in Kirkland, listening to his sounds. Cuddling him and helping my sister. I'm home. And the kids are so jealous. They want to meet their baby cousin Carson, so bad. They looked through all the pictures, watched the video and said let's go. Now. I've held them off until the weekend, hopefully.


This picture created rolling laughter. They asked if these were the doctors. After a much closer look, couldn't stop giggling. Why were you wearing that? We'll save that part for Michelle.
