Big Brother Present

Well Daddy decided that Lincoln need a Big Brother present. So they went out the other day and got a new Power Wheels Quad. Lincoln absolutely loves it. It is amazing to me how good he is at it already. He is getting to be such a big boy, I really can't believe it.

Kyson Harvey Has Arrived!!

Ou Precious Little Bundle of Joy!!

KYSON HARVEY MANSFIELD

Mommy, Daddy and Kyson

Big Brother Lincoln and Kyson

Well our little bundle of joy has arrived! He came into the world on May 22, 2009 at 6:19 am(Nothing like having your last day of school on 5/21 and delivery a baby less than 24 hrs. later). He is our little peanut weighing in at 5lbs. 15oz. and 181/2 in. tall. Mommy and baby are both doing very well. The delivery was 100 times better than the last one and I am feeling great. I never quite understood how people could leave the hospital the day after giving birth, but now I know. Lincoln is so in love with his baby brother and is quickly learning how to be a great helper.

Could be Sooner than Later!

Well we went to the doctor on Tuesday and I have already begun dialating. We discussed timing on when Kyson will be joining us here in the world outside of mommy's tummy (I am really getting ready). Dr. B said that on the 21st of May he will do some things to help try to induce natural labor. And if that doesn't work then we can induce the last week of May. WOW!!! It could be as little as 2 weeks away. Man how time flies. We are excited and a little overwhelmed to know shortly we will be taking care of two. Keep us all in your prayers as we prepare for the next adventure in our lives.

What a fabulous job by my husband.

A Big thanks to our families for all their help

We redid the front yard too.

Morrison Homes had really skimped on our landscaping in the front.

-------------------

Well as you can see from the photos above we have had a busy last couple of weeks. We have been really working on finishing the yards. My husband has been hard at work after work, but the fruits of his labor are fabulous. WE now have a wonderful backyard with grass, a beautiful planter area, and a great sandbox and play area for Lincoln (and Kyson too someday). My friend Kim and I finished Kyson's mural over Spring vacation. It looks absolutely fabulous in his room. I have had two showers this last week and have been blessed with wonderful gifts and fun times. For the shower at my house we played Bunco. I had so much fun and it seemed like everyone else was having a great time too. I feel truly blessed to be able to welcome our little baby into the world with all these wonderful friends and family members to love and support our family. Well this pregnancy sure has gone fast and we are anxiously awaiting meeting our new son. ONLY 5 WEEKS TO GO! Wow time sure does fly.
