Tator or Ben???

So far the boys look pretty much the same. Everyone see if you can guess who is who!! Both boys have been awesome lately. Nathan is adjusting. Ben is sleeping really well one night he slept 7 hours and last night he slept 6 and he goes right back to sleep after he eats. He's a really happy baby knock on wood. Nathan seems so much older now that Ben is here. His favorite thing to say is "guess what? chicken butt" Thanks to Kevin.

Pics of my boys!!

We got Ben's pictures taken the other day and here are some of the pictures from the shoot. My friend Kory took them she does a really good job. She came to our house and worked with the boys really well. If you need a photographer you should giver her a call. Here is a link to her blog www.klynnphotography.blogspot.com

Life with 2!!

So I just realized that I haven't really said anything about the whole birthing process so here you go. We went into the hospital at 6:00 am while Nathan slept quietly at home with my 2 sisters and my mom. They got my IV in and my blood drawn and DR came in and gave us the run down and he was ready to go by like 7:15 am but the nurses weren't. They started my spinal at 7:36 they cut at 7:46 and Benjamin Cooper Gibson was born at 7:52 am weighing 7 lbs 6oz and he was 20 in. Kev actually got it on video. I heard him scream and they showed him to me for a second. All I could see were his giant feet and hands but he was still cute. Kevin and Ben were whisked off to get all cleaned up while they sewed me shut. I was back in my room and holding Ben by 8:35 am. It all went really good. My sisters brought Nathan up to see us around 9:30am. He was kinda overwhelmed with me still being hooked up to everything and he didn't want to talk to me or the baby but all that has changed now. He loves both of us again. Nathan has had hard time the past couple of days with life in general but my friend Natalie came and got him and took him swimming and that helped a ton. Thanks Natalie I don't know what I would do without you. I think he will adjust once we get back to some sort of schedule. Ben has been a dream baby ( knock on wood) he barely ever cries and when he does it just because he's hungry. I on the other hand cry all the time for nothing. Stupid hormones. I love both of my boys they are both so fun and cute. I am so lucky to have Kevin as a husband. He took 2 weeks off of work and is the biggest help. I love him he's also cute and fun.

Almost Almost There!!

So now I only have 3 days left. I'm so excited I can barely stand it. I'm trying to get my house in order and everything figured out with Nathan so he can come and see the baby in the hospital and still try and keep things semi normal for him. I will post a pic of my huge belly so you can all point and laugh later. Wish me luck!!
