He has arrived!!!

Madden Thomas Hebdon was born on 11/20/08! He weighed 7 lbs. 14 oz. and he was 20 in. long. During labor we figured out why I was a week late and not progressing. After 20 hours of labor I had regressed and he still had not dropped. We opted for a C-section because he was starting to struggle. And we discovered that the cord was short and wrapped around his neck twice. So, thank heavens we made that choice and he was stubborn about dropping. He is safe, healthy, and adorable!!
It is amazing how life changes in wonderful and difficult ways with a new baby. We are running on very little sleep right now, but he is so much fun!
These are some of our favorite pictures.

Long Overdue Update

Well, I am now officially 2 days overdue. This little guy thinks he is staying in a warm hot tub for life, I guess! Matt and I have been very bad at this blogging thing, but I am going to reform once the baby arrives. Our lives will be much more exciting then. Seriously, the last five months since we last posted haven't been that eventful. We have worked, Matt has gone on campouts for Scouts, I have done school and been pregnant, and that's about it! But, I did want to post a picture of our Halloween costumes, because I think Matt looks so great in his little shorts! For work, my belly dressed up as a pumpkin. My patients were appreciative of the comic relief! Then, on Halloween Matt and I had a party. I coerced Matt into dressing up as Bleeker, so I could be Juno. For those of you who have not seen the movie, the costumes won't make much sense. Matt wasn't too pleased about the whole short shorts business, but options for a pregnant woman are extremely limited as far as costumes go! He was a good sport!
