Welcome Baby Mckenna!

Our New Family

After one of the longest weekends in Mommy's life, Mckenna Grace Lucas was born Sunday, September 27, 2009 at 11:06am. She weighs 6 pound 7 ounces and is 20 inches long. We are so happy to have her here! There are so many good pictures... too many to pick from.


Grandpa and Grandma VonBon made it just in time for Mckenna's arrival. They picked up Laura and were on the road by 3am! We were so nervous that they wouldn't make it!

Auntie LaLa was so much help. She stayed at the hospital with me Sunday night so Matt could go home and get some MUCH needed rest. Auntie LaLa woke up every time Mckenna needed to eat and helped me! I am so fortunate to have such an awesome sister. We can't wait to have her come back next weekend! :)


Mom is here for the week. It will be so hard to adjust after all of my help goes home! ...More to come later! :)

Still.... NO Change!

I went to the doctor today and I still have not really changed. The good news was that I lost 3 pounds and she is starting to make her descent and they say you lose weight just before you go into labor. She did however say... "I will see you next week!" :( Let's all say our prayers that Baby Lucas decides to come before next Monday!

Things have slowed down for Matt and I. We are happy to have some free weekends. Kelly and Marc's wedding was really nice and we had a lot of fun! (I have included a couple of pictures for your enjoyment... don't laugh too hard at me!)

Here's to another week...!

Ready for the Weekend!

This weekend will be a busy one but we are getting more and more ready as the days tick by! I went to the doctor on Tuesday and her final words to me were "I'll see you next week" so Kelly can breathe a sigh of relief because I will too be walking down the isle (as a bridesmaid) this weekend... belly and all! :)

The doctor said that Little (content) Baby Lucas is still pretty high. I wanted to know how to get her to move down and I didn't get much help... lounges, squats, sitting on a yoga ball... "you still have 2 weeks".... so I am thinking that she has set up camp and she is not going to come till she is good and ready! I guess this is a good thing, we are just ANXIOUS to meet our little one! On a side note the doctor did another QUICK ultrasound (to make sure she is still head down) and she was amused by the hair on her head. It was sticking straight up and she measured it to be about 1 1/2 cm. :) I have been hoping for a full head of hair so I think I am going to get my wish! Bring on the bows!

... So two weeks to go!
