More Pictures
Here are some pictures from the past week. Everyone is adjusting well . . . Hailey is sleeping well at night and Ian seems to be happy (as usual) and occasionally wants to give Hailey a kiss. We had a nice quiet Thanksgiving at home this year with my parents. Enjoy the pics!

Hailey's First Full Day
Our doctor allowed us to come home from the hospital today since all of us were doing so well. We are so thankful to be home and are looking forward to a relaxing Thanksgiving. Here are some pictures from Hailey's first full day and some special visitors that came to visit her.

Hailey is here!
We are pleased to announce the arrival of Hailey Faith. She was born at 11:21 am today and is very healthy and doing well. She weighed 7 lbs. 11 oz. and was 19 1/4 inches long. Everyone is doing wonderful and Ian enjoyed getting to meet 'Sissy' in person this afternoon. We are so thankful to the Lord for giving us the privilege of raising this little girl for His glory! Thank you for your prayers.

Hailey's Imminent Arrival
We are pleased to announce that (unless she decides to come early), Hailey Faith will be arriving sometime Tuesday. My doctor told me at my appointment that my body looked ready and since I have been progressing for the last several weeks, I am going to be induced at 5:30am on Tuesday morning, Nov. 20. We are very excited. We'll get home on Thanksgiving with a wonderful 'Thanksgiving present' from the Lord.
Needless to say, we have been rapidly trying to prepare and gets things together this past week. We've almost finished our Christmas shopping, decorated for Christmas, covered church responsibilities, organized all winter clothing for the kids, etc. My mom will be coming from Greenville to help out for a while which we are very thankful for. She spent 2 weeks with us when I had Ian and was a tremendous help. Ian knows that "sissy" is coming but I can hardly wait for him to meet her. We'll definitely have to catch it on video.
I am feeling well and am just recently recovering from an unexpected bout of food poisoning. Steve and I went to Chick Fil' A after my doctors appointment and apparently there was something in the chicken nuggets. I have been confined to the bed and the bathroom for the last 24 hours but am finally able to keep down toast and gatorade. I am very thankful for renewed strength.
We'll post pictures of her once she arrives. Hopefully the hospital has wireless, but I don't know for sure. We would appreciate your prayers for a safe and healthy delivery.

Baby Shower
Our church gave me a baby shower last week. The ladies were very kind and generous and Hailey has some very cute clothes to wear. It's looking like everything is on schedule as far as her delivery date and maybe just a bit ahead - according to the doctor. So, she should be arriving pretty soon! We're excited. Ian keeps pointing to Hailey's clothes and Moses basket (where she will sleep) and says "sissy." So, although, I'm not sure he knows who sissy is or what's about to happen, he does know that she's been getting a lot of cool gifts lately.
