Baby Caleb!!

I put this picture on cause I thought it was funny.

We just recently finished our flagstone patio around our fire pit. I think it turned out pretty good. We have already had a couple marshmallow roast.



We still have a couple of things to do around the patio to finish it up. I think the veggy garden is going to go next to the patio. Next year we are gonna take our attempt at a garden.


Garrett is trying to stick his belly out as far as Mommys. This was taken about a week before Caleb was born.


We were scheduled to go into the hospital to 7:30 in the morning to start Julie into labor. At 4 am she woke me up and in a voice as calm as could be she said to me, "Trent, I think my water just broke." She got up to go to the bathroom and I told her either her water had just broke or she totally wet the bed. We arrived at the hospital at 4:20 am and she delivered Caleb at 8:10 am. This is her around 5:00 or 5:30.



Caleb Ray 7lbs 12ozs 19 inches long.

This is Dr. Hall, Me, Julie, and Caleb


This was taken the day she delivered.














The newly formed Nelson clan. This was taken the day after he was born.





I know this picture doesn't show it but Garrett loves having a baby around.










We put his pumkin outfit on and it fit like socks on a rooster.







We are way excited to have another child in the house. Last night was our first night home and it went about as well as can be expected. (that means we didn't sleep much) Thanks to all who came and saw us at the hospital. And thanks to all who brought gifts!!!!

YEAH!!! Cute pictures. I just LOVE Garrett. He looks like a character from Harry Potter in the first shot and the one with Julie, now that's just too funny. I especially love how he's trying to see how far out he could push his belly!!! You guys all look good. Yeah, how are those sleepless nights, eh??? It'll pass before long (all I have to say is BABYWISE). I think we are for sure coming down, so we'll see you then!!!

Oh I just love little Caleb. It was so fun to get to hold a newborn again. He's perfect. And Garrett is going to be a fantastic big brother.
