3, 2, 1!!!!


Well Maxwell is one and I am so glad to have him in our family. Our little Max is always in a good mood, ready with a smile and a loves. This week is a special because, just for 8 days, I have a three-year-old, a two-year-old and a one-year-old.

I remember the day Max was born...I woke up early to get ready to head into the hospital for my c-section, I didn't get much sleep from being so excited to meet Max for the first time. It was a Sunday and very quite at the hospital, Paul and I waited for the doctor and the kids came in to say good luck. I was very excited, nervous and terrified all at the same time. But after a very short time in the operating room I heard that cry (that beautiful, wonderful, first impression cry) and was it loud. He never stopped crying all the way through getting cleaned, weighed and bathed. The nurses all commented on how loud he was, but once he got back to me he hardly ever cried again. I remember being in the room with Paul and the kids and thinking of Ammon's birthday coming up and realized I had just given birth to three boys in less than three years, Wow! I wouldn't trade this for anything in the world, even though I do need a nap every once in while. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAXWELL KEITH!!
