At Long Last, We Have A New Evans!

This blog post has been a long time coming. Who knew newborns took up so much of your time? Now that we got some sleep under our belt (it only took 2 months) we can finally show off the bundle of joy!



The Hospital





Trying to relax... it wasn't working



The infamous Giant Maple-Bacon Glazed Apple-Filled Doughnut to celebrate



Our visitors for the big day!


This is my surgeon Dr. Lane. She did an amazing job!


For those that haven't heard the Birth Story:
I had a scheduled cesarean delivery for Wed. February 29th (leap day!)
Scott walked me to the O.R. and was going to come in just before the procedure was to start so we could both be there for the birth of our son. For some reason, my body rejected the spinal and I was never completely numbed before they started the procedure. That's right folks, I felt the surgeon make the incision.
My blood pressure spiked from the stress (go figure) and they were forced to put me completely under. Scott was no longer allowed to be in the room since the surgery had changed, so he was escorted out... dragged out kicking and screaming would be more like it. It was an extremely stressful situation. But minutes later a nurse walked into the room where Scott was and handed him his son. The picture below is of that moment :)






Extremely drugged up momma


Scott caught us both napping :)


He did this on his own... adorable

Holiday Light Drive




This year we did 'The Big Loop"
We scheduled 13 stops and added more along the way.
Starting at the letter O, we headed north through Arvada, then up to Thornton,
down to Aurora, across Littleton and back up to Lakewood.
It was a magic winter night filled with magic winter lights.
