Brogan's 1st Haircut!

July 27th 2009
(Before)

OKKK so I let it get out of control and Brogan grew a mullet... GUILTY. Everyone had told me horror stories about how they cut of the curls and they never grew back!! I was in love with his curls, but when they started touching his shoulders when they were wet... I knew it was time! It looks way worse in pictures now that I am looking at them. I was just in denial apparently...

Getting ready with the Cape on!
1st Curl Cut- I know Brogan I feel your pain!
OOH squirt Gun!! Auntie Brooke has the best ideas!
OOOH Figured it out!
Everything and Everyone got soaked! lol But it kept him entertained!

Then he figured out how to squirt it in his MOUTH! He thought it was SOOO funny!



All Grown up!!! What a big looking boy! Where did my Babers go?!

::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...
