And We're Off To The Hospital....

I decided to get induced, but wanted to do things as natural as possible.

So Dr. Broms broke my water at 8 am and I gave birth at 3:52 pm...without any drugs.

Things went so smooth!! I think I could do another one natural...give me about 3 years to finalize that decision though.

The Moment You Have Been Waiting For....

Briana Elena Horton

9 lbs 2oz

She is perfect!!! Labor went great!

Our Sweet Baby Girl

These pictures speak for themselves.

We are excited to know already that she is a snuggle-bug just like her brother.

Isaac and Briana

What a beautiful family!!! Doesn't my Mommy look great?!

Isaac finally gets to hold the baby sister that he has been waiting for!

There's No Place Like Home

After 48 Hours, I was ready to get home

"Lovesy"

When Isaac got to the hospital to meet his new little sister, he found that she had brought him a gift. He was excited to see that it was a family, with a mommy, daddy, brother, and baby.
Briana also got a gift from Isaac. Her very first toy. A beanie baby puppy dog named Lovesy. She is very soft and Isaac hopes that she will love to snuggle her as much as he loved to snuggle his Plopper bear when he was that little.

The Whoopie!!

David bought Isaac his first Whoopie Cushion

Isaac thought it was THE BOMB and played with it for hours. He thought it was soooo funny to make everyone pito. We decided to dub it "The Pito Pillow"

Isaac & Mommy & Briana

Normally I can't get Isaac to pose with me even if I beg, but this time he HAD to be in every picture.

He's posing for the camera, just like mom.

He loves Briana and can't wait for her to get here!!


(And yes, I wear this shirt A LOT!!! It's one of the few that still fit!!!)

Crazy Isaac...

He kept running past as David would try to take the pictures. He almost looks like a "GHOST" in this first one. He thought that was pretty cool!!

Isaac was having so much fun posing for the camera when David was trying to take pictures of me.

Clackamas River @ Estacada

It was so nice this weekend that we decided to drive out to Estacada and go to the Clackamas River. We wish you were here Neet and Doug so that we had someone to camp with. Maybe then we would camp!!

Isaac just loves the water!!

But it was freezing cold, as you can tell by the expression on David's face

The mom-to-be looks like a giant Bull-Frog sitting on a rock!! (I had no idea David took this picture!!)

Washing The Car...

Okay, we are slave drivers....Isaac earns his keep by washing the car.
He wanted to help wash our new car. He loves to help his Dad.
David just better enjoy it while it lasts!!

Visor N Boots

We bought Isaac this cool visor, and he loves to wear it!!
He put the visor on as well as his rain boots and insisted that I take him to the store looking like this. So I did. He looked so cute!!!
He was being so silly!! But that's our boy!!

We've Been Promising All Summer....

Isaac waited all summer to come out to "The Beach".
Our other attempt was foiled by Mother Nature.
We wanted to make it out at least once before Briana arrives.
We are glad that things worked in our favor this time.

Isaac loves shoveling the sand. It wasn't wet enough where we were to build a castle.
There were way too many people around.

David was checking out the ladies to see if there were any hotties on the beach-there weren't to his dismay....No seriously, he was watching the volleyball tournament that was going on. There were tons of volleyball nets set up everywhere. It is an annual event at Seaside.

David was playing along side Isaac in the sand. After taking a couple pictures I got down on all fours myself and played for a little bit. You forget as an adult how much fun it was to be a kid.

The Ocean at Seaside

Isaac and Me watching a helicopter that flew RIGHT OVER our heads...it's a tour that usually doesn't get that close, but Isaac loved it!!

He thought picking up the wet sand and throwing it was "the bomb"!!

Isaac and David hit the water.......

Isaac loves playing in the Ocean, no matter how cold it is...it wasn't bad today.

Bumper Cars

These wouldn't download in the correct order, but here goes anyway....

Isaac loves to ride the Bumper Cars whenever we come out here....

Maybe next year I will be able to ride with him, but then again I am sure he will want to ride with his Dad. Those two are thick as thieves!!

One Tired Boy


He had so much fun that he crashed on the ride home.

Goofy Isaac

We bought Isaac some swim goggles at Target, and he thinks
that they are "cool".


Guessing Game

Okay, I have 12 Days until my Due Date. At my appointment on Wednesday Dr. Broms said that he didn't think I would make it to the due date. Who knows.
But just for fun, lets see what all of you think.
Just leave your guess in a comment as to when you think she will arrive!!
Can't wait to see what you all think!!!

Pedicure Party

I decided what better thing to do with 2 weeks left than have a pedicure
party to pamper my extremely swollen feet!!
Check out that belly!!!!

We had pizza and a lot of fun. It was just me and my pals Sarah and Taylor.


And here are the oh so swollen feet of a mom-to-be!! I was really swollen with Isaac, so I knew I didn't stand a chance with Briana. At least I didn't swell until the end!!
