Meet Mr. Crosby!

Well of course I wasn't planning on having a baby Friday, but that is how God works with me...teaching me things when I least expect it! So crazy story, as usual, but I went to my appt. having contractions as usual, but I had progressed enough that my doctor knew I would have him this weekend and she wasn't going to be in town. She told me she didn't want to miss it and if I wanted to have him Friday, we could! So of course I said yes!!!

But then came the tricky part...I had Cole with me, and didn't think I should go up to L&D with a 2 year old :) Cory wasn't picking up his phone (he was in a business mtg out of town), Carter had to be picked up from school, Caden and Lizzy had to be picked up before my mom could get here, and my bag wasn't packed!!! So after calling Cory several times with no answer, I called my mom and got her headed this way, then called in reinforcements...thank you to Mandy, Becky, and Tisha for being at my beck and call! Also thanks to Devin for letting me call and explain the chaos to someone who would truly understand!!! Love you girls and thank you so much for BEING THERE for me!

So after taking Cole to Fargo to meet Tisha and heading back to Shattuck I went up to be admitted. The nurses had put out APB on me. They were calling me as I walked back into the hospital wondering where I was! So funny. Things progressed slowly at first but once they upped the pitocin we were on a roll. He came so quickly that his poor little face was bruised really bad! So there are no close ups yet :) But enough chatting here are the pics you are waiting for...

Momma and Daddy with their 4th little blessing!
Cole is totally in love with his brother! So proud!
My 4 little men
All 5 of my guys! I am one blessed lady!
