More photos of Miles!!!








Really not much to say, just wanted to add a few more pictures that we've taken since we brought Miles home.  We are all still amazed by his fuzzy head.  He has been such a good little baby so far, and he sleeps a ton!!

Welcome to our family Miles Scott Woodruff!!!!

He's here!! Miles Scott Woodruff joined our family on October 21st at 7:31pm. He weighed 7lbs 15 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. It was a long day, but well worth the wait and the 12 hours of contractions!! Justin and I were both about ready to kill the doctor on call. Even though I was contracting every 2-3 minutes there was no change to my cervix, so she refused to deliver, even though I had a c-section scheduled for Thursday. Two days early- give me a break. I've had contractions throughout most of my pregnancy, but nothing like these - needless to say I was a mess by midafternoon!! Sorry! I guess maybe I needed to vent a little:)

Here is our handsome little guy with Grandma Lu - finally opening his eyes



Look at all that hair!! It is so soft and fuzzy. The kids were in heaven "petting" him every chance they could. And check out that double chin and chubby cheeks. Love it! 


Trying to catch another shot with his eyes open




Here is our new family of six!! A little crazy, but we wouldn't have it any other way! We love you Miles and we are so excited to have you in our family!!

More to come.... you can never have enough pictures of your newborn, right!?

Two weeks and counting!!

So - I am not the best at keeping my blog updated. Things have been very boring around here! I have two weeks to go before we become a family of six and we are taking it pretty easy! I have gone early with my two other pregnancies and so far this is the longest I have ever stayed pregnant. It has it's good and bad points. I'm sure it is better for the little guy to be cooking, but boy what I wouldn't give to have my body back right now. I actually do love being pregnant, just not for the full 40 weeks I guess:) My mom comes on Tuesday and we couldn't be more excited. She gets to stay with us for a whole month. I don't know what we would do without her!!! I am scheduled for my c-section on the 23rd. With contractions coming like crazy our goal is to make it at least until grandma comes!


Justin is crazy busy at work, and we don't get to see a whole lot of him. The kids were having the funniest conversation about him the other day. The ortho guys take turns being on call and they can come home, but just have to keep their pagers on. So this is how the conversation goes:
Kenley: When that thing starts beeping that means that someone is in trouble and dad has to go to work to help them.
Marcus: Yeah, he goes to work at the hospital
Kenley: That's right, cuz he's a doctor now
Marcus: He's not a doctor, he's daddy
Kenley: I know Marcus. He doesn't really look like one, but he is!

I know the kids miss him as much as I do. I am sure they are pretty sick of watching movies so mommy can rest. When Grandma Lu comes she is going to be kept busy to say the least!
