Presenting the NEWEST member of our TEAM...

We are thrilled to present

KIMBER GREY RIGGLE

who joined us on 9-21-2009 at 7:24 AM CST

He weighed in at 8 lbs 3.5 ozs and was 21 inches long.


We had a scheduled c-section and while the birth experience involved much less drama, meeting our new little man was once again a breath-taking experience. He has a head full of red hair and looks very much like his proud big brother. Matthew is doing a wonderful job of being a big brother and loves giving kisses and hugs to Baby Kimber. Sleep is a hot commodity in our house but we both know how fast this time goes by and are trying to enjoy every moment.


My precious, absolutely perfect little red headed baby boy!!!!!


My main men.

Memories.....

As I am preparing to go into the hospital to meet my new little person I have been thinking about Matthew's birth and how completely life altering it was. I have said time and again that I thought my life was pretty great before I became a mommy and I continue to be surprised at how much better it got after Matthew's arrival.

One of my favorite memories in the hospital with Matthew was the first time Willie called down to the nursery and said these words...."Will you please bring my son to our room." I know, pretty ordinary words but me in my hormonal state got teared up hearing my husband of 9 years say those words.

My baby boy is almost a big brother....wow!!

Atlanta Adventures

Matthew, Muppet and I recently traveled to Atlanta to visit some good friends, the Williams family.

We both had a blast and enjoyed playing on their gorgeous new stone patio, splashing in the river, blowing bubbles and playing with trains.

Muppet actually enjoyed the river as well!


Explorers......

Maternity - Family Photos 2009

Our lovely and talented neighbor took some amazing pictures for us over the weekend to commemorate this pregnancy. While it is hard for me to think I look "good" with the extra weight and truly massive belly I am quite pleased with the shots we got. We have less than 3 weeks until we meet the new little Riggle!!! I hope and pray this baby is a sweet as my little snuggle puppy Matthew is.....as you can see from my snuggling session at the end.
