Welcome to the World Ivy!

So here it is... A (rather lengthy) photo run-down of the night it all went down! Exactly one week ago. In fact, right about now, we were getting settled into our hospital room.

The one picture I wish I had with Jack was a picture of me in the hospital bed... for sure I got it this time around! And one of the handsome man below.

My hospital guests arrive just in time... look at the anticipation!

I may appear to be in pain, but my epidural was working great... I just had the overwhelming feeling of needing to push and the doctor wasn't quite there yet.

One, two, three... and...

Here she is!!!

She has quite the set of lungs!

So glad the girls made it this go around!!

Proud Daddy!

Thank you, Kara, for being my photographer! These pictures are amazing and I will treasure them!!!

Home Sweet Home

We are home...and a family of four!

This baby decided to make her debut a couple weeks early (lucky me!). My water broke Monday night at 8:20. After making arrangements and getting ourselves together Daniel and I made our way to the hospital, anxious and excited and a little dazed! We were admitted a little after 10:00 and then the fun began!

I didn't think I could have a smoother labor/delivery than the one I had with Jack but I did!! After a quick shot of pitocin to get my contractions going and a perfect epidural I was ready to push... the time really went by so quickly! After 3 sets of contractions our perfect, pink baby girl was born at 2:45 am! She weighed an even 7 pounds and is 19 inches long!

She already is the perfect fit for our family and we couldn't believe how much we could love another little being, but we do! Jack has been a great older brother, smothering her with kisses and insisting on holding her every 3 minutes. We love our little girl and are glad to be home.

I will post pictures of our IVY ANN MUNNS this weekend but not tonight. Tonight I'm just going to enjoy my new little family and enjoy the happiness in my heart.

Happy Easter!

Yes, the Easter Bunny did make an appearance at our house this year! Our entire weekend was filled with Easter festivities actually. Our ward did a phenomenal Eater activity campout (we didn't camp) but we attended a fun potluck/Easter devotional Friday night and then a pancake breakfast and Easter gaming/activities Saturday morning. Sunday we enjoyed a nice breakfast here at home, Jack opened his Easter basket and then we had a nice day at church followed by a big family dinner at Daniel's parents house. It was a fun weekend and a good reminder that our Saviour lives!! And that His Resurrection means that we will all be resurrected someday. I'm so grateful for the knowledge I have of Jesus Christ and for the life He lived for me!

Yay for goodies!



My handsome, handsome boys!

Babe!

When Jack woke from his nap yesterday he called for me, "Mom! Mommy! Mom!" etc... like he usually does. I was right in the middle of finishing up a little project so did not go and get him right away and after a few minutes he started calling out "Babe! Baaaabe! Baaaabe!" The things out of a 2 year olds mouth! Such a funny kid.
