She's Really Here! Blizzard and all!

Dadda & Mikelle


Braet & CC in the lobby of the hospital. There were so jazzed to meet sister but they can't even come in =( Two very sad kiddos. Hopefully we'll be home later today.

So Sweet!!!


So here's how it all went down. Luke was on his way out to shovel on Wed night night. I said don't bother, were not going anywhere tonight (boy was I wrong!!). The induction had been canceled for Wed night and Thursday morning (Braet and I were by far the most disappointed) and the few contractions I had been having that day were no different than the ones I'd been having for the last 2 months. So I feel asleep watching the Caps game and then a few hours later in the middle of a sound sleep, I jumped out of bed and called to Luke, "My water broke!" We were both surprised to say the least and sprung into action, bags, camera, make up of course and Cammy went to shovel (sweet boy). Thank the Lord for 4 wheel drive. Cam drove us to the hospital and then we waited and waited and waited some more. Eventually they started petocin I opted for an epidural- such a gift from God! And before we knew it she was here!! I feel great and she is just precious! Still surreal!
Mikelle and Daddy are watching hockey as we wait for the docs- were ready to get outta here and get home!!
The story on her name, well Mikelle is the feminine form of Micah, need we say more =) Braet nicknamed Micah, "Micah J" so lil lady's initials are MJ. We love it, it honors our boy and speaks of the joy we want to continually know in the Lord!
You make know to me the path of life, in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Ps 16:11
Thanks for your prayers, texts, calls & emails! We love celebrating with you!!!
