Uncle Kevin and Aunt LeeAnna

Uncle Kevin and Aunt LeeAnna came to visit 2 weeks ago. James loves playing with them and they love playing with James! Don't yall want to move a little closer???

Sorry for the delay in nursery pictures...better late than never! I am so happy with Miller's nursery, it honestly turned out better that I expected. We got her bedding from http://www.javisdavis.com/. I loved working with them on her bedding and they have the best customer service. The furniture came from Pottery Barn Kids and all of the other decorations came from various websites that I found while on bedrest. I still have a chandelier to hang but we have had problems with our plaster ceiling and old wiring so it will be coming soon!

James and his Friends

We have had a lot of fun playing with Aulden and Ella Carsyn!

Miller Claire Corey

April 29th 2010

10:02 am

6lbs 9oz 18 inches

Miller was born on Thursday morning which also happened to be mine and Gray's 4 year wedding anniversary. I went to the hospital Wednesday night around 9:40 and I was having contractions but nothing regular at all. I was 4cm dilated and 80% effaced. We power walked the halls of the hospital for an hour and I had progressed to 4-5 and 100% effaced. I was admitted around 11:30 and was told to get some sleep because I was still in pre-labor. I was in no pain and pretty comfortable. Around 7:30 nothing had changed and they decided to break my water. As soon as that happend the contractions came and labor began. I had an epidural but it didn't work completley. It didn't work with James either.. I was told I have a crooked spot in my spine right in the epidural place. It helped the pain a little but I could still feel my contractions. I was in labor for 2hrs and 45 min and pushed for 2 min. She was born at 10:02 and it was the fastest, easiest labor imaginable.. even without a full epidural or pain medication. What a great anniversary present!
