Auntie Morgann's First Soccer Game

My sister Morgann is in her senior year as a defensemen at EK on their soccer team. She is an AWESOME soccer player and we are so sad that this is her last year playing. Brogan has been going to her soccer games since he was born, and he loves picking her out on the field and then running up to her after the game. Even if she is not in a great mood, Brogan can always bring a smile to her face. They are best buds. Since she watched him the whole first summer I was working. Here are pics from the game, she is number 18.


(side note.. yes that is a pacifier, and now since i thought it was so cute and let him have it for a couple days... since he never wanted one... now he won't give it up again!!!..ugh you live and learn right!)


:The rules of soccer are very simple, basically it is this: if it moves, kick it. If it doesn’t move, kick it until it does.:

::Introduction::

Although his life was unplanned Brogan has brought so much joy to ours. We found out we were pregnant May 21st, 2007, and what a shock that was. Looking back on that time now, as i look into his big blue eyes, I don't think we ever could have known what happiness he would bring with his arrival. I worked right up until my water broke at 4:40pm on January 15th. My heart was beating so fast as Buddy met me at my house (after i had to call and pull him out of an interview to let him know it was "TIME", he got the phone call he had wanted! Since I was scheduled to have an induction on the Thursday following and we both really wanted it to happen naturally. We got to the hospital between 6 and 6:30 and i was dilated to 5. After I got the epidural around 8:30 -9 I dilated to 10 within the hour, but was so numb that I could not feel my contractions to push. Poor Brogan was stuck there for another 3 hours with his head just trying to come out! We turned down the epidural, and when I could feel enough to push, it only took 1 hour and our baby boy was delivered into this world by his Daddy and Grandma Wood at 1:51 am on January 16th 2008. Grandma R and Aunt Chelsea and Aunt Brooke were also there to share that special moment and capture it with photographs and video. The rest of the family came in shortly after. What an amazing experience this has been...
