Graham meets more of his family

Ruby came up to the hospital to meet her baby brother for the first time. She was curious and gentle, touching his little feet and hands. We've been talking about Graham's arrival for months now, so it's great to finally introduce them.

Happy Birthday Graham Alexander Macnab

On November 1, 2011 Graham Alexander Macnab was born via planned c-section at 12:36 pm, weighing 10 pounds and 12 inches, and measuring 21.5 inches long.

As soon as the doctors delivered him they all were commenting on his size. Early on in the pregnancy an ultrasound showed him being large, but I never had any confirmation later on. No wonder I was so uncomfortable toward the end of my pregnancy! Graham is a GIANT!

Here he is shortly after birth. Such a sweet baby boy with dark brown hair and deep blue eyes.








Graham has long fingers and toes.

Welcome to the world Graham!

Arriving at the hospital - 11/1/11

Here I am the morning of our planned c-section, arriving at the hospital 39 weeks pregnant. The past few weeks of the pregnancy were quite uncomfortable as the baby was wedged under my ribs. I'm happy that this pregnancy is over and I don't have to do that again.

We are so excited to meet our baby boy!

Trick or Treating!

Ruby had so much fun trick or treating this year!

Her friend Addy came trick or treating at our house...



Then, at dusk Grannie Lynn walked with us around our neighborhood. Ruby would go up to the doors and say 'trick or treating' and got so excited for CANDY!

Ruby's Halloween Costume - Kitty!

Ruby was a cute kitty for Halloween. The inspiration came from her special grey kitty!






I was surprised, but she loved to wear the hat and gloves!









When I first got it out she walked on fours in the living room meowing...

Laura - 38 weeks pregnant

I'm near the end...thank goodness. This picture was taken last week when I was 38 weeks pregnant. I'm starting to get very uncomfortable and experiencing a lot of rib pain. It feels like the baby has no more room to grow! Looking forward to meeting baby boy soon.
