Finn is doing good. He's sleeping well and eating like a champ! Ruby loves her "baby Finn" she showers him with kisses every chance she gets. Reality for me starts on Tuesday when daddy goes back to work :( it's been so nice to have him home. We've done a ton of fun family outings which has been so refreshing.

Mr. Finn...

He is here!! Finn arrived November 20th at 5:33pm. He is a perfect addition to our family and we are so glad to finally be able to love on him. Labor was....well, it was labor. Contractions woke me up around 2 am on Friday, went to the gym at 5 am in hopes to speed the processes up...my water broke at 7:45ish....went to the hospital labored for what felt like was forever with very little progress (in my mind), got the epidural :)....still wasn't dilating (stuck at an 8), gave me pitocin....pushed for 35 min :) and Finn was here! 8.3 LBS (huge) 21 inches long!

Here are some shots Caylan captured for us....Thanks Caylan

Not the whole family...I definitely was sad that Ruby couldn't be apart of the experience. She was missed.
Just loving him so much
Big feet :)
Lots of dark hair just like his daddy

Update....

Read on if you are interested in Finn's delivery......

Went to see my doctor this morning and I am 4 cm dilated, and still not in labor. What in the world!! I'm a little tired of them telling me labor will be "any day now". I'm ready now, well as ready as I can be. Anyways the doctor also told me it should be a pretty fast labor since I'm already dilating...but honestly what do doctors really know!!! On the plus side Casey is really hoping Finn holds off until the 17th (better for his work schedule and such) so at least one of us is getting their way!! I'm just so anxious to meet our son!!!!!!

Congratulations to my wonderful husband, he's officially a grad student! Casey will be entering the MAT program at George Fox University in January. I'm very proud of him for pursuing his goals. We're super excited for what this means for our family, and we trust that this is the direction and path that the Lord has laid out for us. We know we will have to make a lot of sacrifices for Casey to get through the 16 month program, but we're excited. The Lord is faithful :)
