2 weeks after Jake was born he was introduced to the craziness of our love for pictures. 
Enjoy the beautiful pictures that Stephanie took for us!
















2 1/2 year old update on Paige


Since I am so behind on blogging, I decided to recap what Paige has been doing and some of my favorite pictures! Paige continues to be very active. She continues to improve on her learning skills at Mrs. Patti's. She is writing her name first and last well. She loves everything about school! She enjoys writing, coloring, and playing with her friends; London, Gianna, Brooklyn, and Aiden. Paige continues to LOVE singing. She amazes us because she can remember words to songs immediately after listening to them. Some of her favorite songs are: Call Me Maybe, Party in the USA.. aka Put Your Hands Up, Rumor Has It.. aka Boomer Has it, Like Jesus Does.. aka Vine Vine, Cruise.. aka Florida Georgia Line, Get Your Shine On.. aka Shine On, Just Give Me a Reason.. aka Written in the Stars, 22.. aka Perfect Day, Easy, I Want Crazy, and Crash My Party.. aka Luke Bryan. Paige still takes a 2-3 hour nap. She is wearing between 2T & 3T clothes. Her shoe size is 7.

Jake Timothy Daly Born!!

Bill, Paige, and I welcomed our adorable son/brother on January 15th!! He was born at 6:56 pm. He weighed 6 lbs 11 ounces and was 19 1/2 inches long.  I began have contractions on Monday, January 13th so I went to the hospital. They monitored me and after 3 hours, Dr. Williams decided to keep me over night. He wanted to see if I could progress on my own before inducing us. Tuesday the 14th was a LLLLOOONNGG day!! I started to  progress and so Dr. Williams decided to start pitocin around 2 pm. The contractions kicked in boy was i feeling it! Unfortunately, I was not progressing and baby was still too high up for Dr. Williams to break my water. Finally around 8 pm Dr. Williams ordered an epidural for me in order for my body to calm down and so I could sleep.  I feel asleep around 10 pm and woke up 2 hours later completely uncomfortable. Needless to say I had an extremely rough and sleepless night! I though my family had all left but I learned in the morning my sisters and Aunty Laurie slept in the waiting room the whole night!! What troopers. Wednesday the 15th was more of a waiting game. Dr. Williams finally broke my water around 4 pm and I went from a 6to 10 in 2 hours. I started pushing around 6 pm and finally had our sweet boy at 6:56 pm!! My labor was long but well worth the wait and pain!! 
Here are some of our favorite pictures from that day!!

Getting ready to start pushing!
