Four day old Graham!

My mom yelled for me and said that Graham had rolled over...I thought that was a sweet "idea" but she must have pushed him over!! Then she yelled it again! I went in and watched him roll over- all by himself- for the third time! I knew no one would believe us so we got the camera....this is the fourth time he rolled over. When David got home we showed him the video- he still didn't hardly believe it! So he took him to our bed..he rolled over again....then he put him on the carpet...no fluffy bed or springs to help:-)....and he rolled over again!!


Our little Graham

Some more pictures of our newest little one!



The delivery went awesome! This was my favorite delivery so far! I got the epidural, but something didn't work as well as it did w/ the other two. It helped the pain w/ the contractions on my stomach, but once the baby started really pushing, the pain was a bit crazy! He was also face up which added pain as well. It was very different than the other two! At the time I didn't know what was going on, but it was definetely my favorite delvery experience.




Going home from the hospital!

Mom's helper!
Okay, so here's a close up of my poison ivy! This is the day before it got really bad! I was having to wear a big "patch" over this arm and the next day I had to wear another "patch" on my other arm b/c it got pretty bad as well. And then it came up on my leg too! I called the doctor and she gave me some medicine, so it's now looking better!! A good memory!

I love these pictures b/c I think we look a like! The other boys came out and my mom said they looked nothing like me. I was very excited that Graham looks like me. We'll see how long it lasts:-)

The last day before the birth!


Our last picture just the four us!

Graham Ward Gossett

We're thrilled to annouce that Graham is here! He weighed 6 lbs 13 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long! It was such an awesome delivery! The Lord allowed me to feel a lot of the birth....it was a bit painful this time around, but it was such an amazing experience for me. We are all very thankful he is here w/ us! He was born Monday morning at 10:26 am! He's already been such a blessing!

There are tons of more pictures to come! My dad took so many it has been hard to choose which ones to put up:-)
Thanks for all the prayers! Our Lord is Good!

Grandma and Grandpa are here!!

Yah!! G'ma and G'pa are coming!! David always laughs abt. how excited I get the day before they arrive! They rushed in from church services on Sunday night! We all stayed up late to wait on them! The boys were so excited!! (and me...can you tell?!)


Grandma and Grandpa always bring the best surprises!!


One of our "daily" walks to try to get the labor going!




Rosie's didn't work! We have gone to Rosie's w/ each pregnancy as soon as my parents arrive....the next day delivering the baby! It just didn't work this time!


Since the walks and Spicy Mexican food didn't seem to be working, we got to work in the yard...First daddy put up a new mailbox so J could get the mail from the sidewalk...

then we pulled up some flowers and weeds...
And all we have to show for it is a bunch of Poison Ivy!!! Daddy and I have it pretty bad! That's always fun:-)

Walking yet again at David's softball games....
w/ no results:-) Just tired feet!

Happy Birthday, John David!


The party boys!








The wind was blowing so much that we had to be creative w/ the b-day candles:-)






Hudson was pushing my hand so the cupcake would go faster in his mouth....he inhaled it.



The big surprise!! "Monster Truck"
If you look closely you can see that Brogan has a finger in his nose and J has his tongue out! We were laughing thinking abt. when they will all be 16!!




This was their expressions as soon as J stepped on the pedal!

J gets abt. three weeks of b-day celebrations! We had a little "party" on his actual b-day w/ just the four of us...then we had his b-day party picnic...and then when my parents get here on Monday, the celebration will continue!
Kase, Kobe, Kali, Karli, and Kloe....John David kept asking if you guys could come to his party! We all missed having you guys! We love you and can't wait to see you soon!
You'll all be able to meet your new cousin next time I get to see you guys! yah!!!

Baseball!




We all enjoyed going to watch Seth play ball this weekend! His team had a great year and made it to the 2nd round of state play offs. We had a big day full of watching and cheering them on. We really enjoyed watching Seth play- he had such a great season! My boys are going to have lots of "coaches" when they get old enough to play:-)








Part of the fan club!

J's new thing is to take some pictures himself! He was very proud of this one!

Tired little boy!





Seth did so well- we are all very proud of him!


Thought I'd throw this in too- another one of John David's masterpieces!



36 weeks


Went to the dr. yesterday and here's the update: 3 cm, 80%, and +3!! He's coming soon!! I go again on May 1st and then on May 5. She would like to take the baby on the 6th to make sure I can get the epidural. Looks like Pops will have to share his b-day w/ baby Graham! My parents are planning ot be here on the 4th, so we are super excited to get this little guy here and in our arms! What a blessing!

Parachutes and hair!




Parachute army!
These are awesome little crafts to do! Easy and fun:-) We love them!






Hud got a hair cut!! I watched J get his hair cut and thought I could try it on Hudson...he looks handsome!

It was a great first date for us! This was back in October of 08...
He has been such a blessing to our family!!
We love you, John David!!

Easter!

North Carolina surprise!!

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!! We miss you both!!


Our own little Easter Musical!! I think I've had a headache for two days now!





Huntsville has been having some crazy weather here lately..a hail storm hit us the other day...we found some the size of golf balls!











Hudson wanted to go get the "balls" that God was given us:-)






Sunday Morning!




Little Monkeys...



Dad putting Hudson to practice a bit early:-)




Hud's favorites right now are balls, cars, and dogs! Dogs have to be at the top of the list- we hear
abt. them daily...many times a day. Almost every morning at the breakfast table he sees people walking their dogs out the window...he loves to tell them hello and goodbye.



Workin' hard!


( several of you guys have asked how far along I am- I forgot to post that on the belly pics...this picture is 34th week...Dr. estimated the first or second week of May for delivery..it has snuck up on us so quickly!!)
