It's a Boy...




Introducing...Rowan Garrett! He is finally here and I couldn't be happier with my Bundle of Joy! He was born Wednesday, January 20th, 2010. I was in labor for 15 hours, which was completely shocking to me since he is my third and the other two didn't take that long. I was getting worried that maybe he would never show up, but you know what they say...Good things are worth waiting for!!!!
He is absolutely amazing, breathtaking, gorgeous, yummy, beautiful, joyful, precious....the list goes on and on. He is such a wonderful addition to our family. It has been such a long wait, but he fits right in and the kids are absolutely smitten with him! They are so cute and helpful! I am doing well and glad to be home. Rowan is sleeping right now, so I took some time to do a quick post. I will post more when I have time, but you all have been so sweet with all of your well wishes and prayers that I wanted to let you know that he has indeed arrived, healthy and wonderful!
I appreciate all of your support and it has been so fun to read all of your sweet posts! Thank you! I better dash, but thanks for fluttering by!
P.S. I don't have any new creations since I have been at the hospital, but I did post this on Thimbles and Thread if you would like to check it out!!!!

Don't worry about posting, mommyhood comes first and we'll still be here when you come back :D.
