A Little Glimpse of Life With Three...

Besides the pictures Elizabeth took, I have one other prego belly shot. The night before Tessa was born. 9 pm.
I drove myself to the hospital. Got a call at 6:30 am asking if I could be there by 7/7:15. You better believe I would be there. Which meant I took off as soon as possible and Jared got the kids to Dan & Melissa's and then met me at the hospital. Really, what did he miss by showing up an hour after me? Not much.

We don't have a single "family" shot from the hospital. Not even one of me, Jared & Tessa. In fact, Gavin didn't even make it to the hospital. Really, why bother to drive 20 mins both ways to bring a 2 year old who could care less? Mia was super excited to come to the hospital though.

I drove myself HOME from the hospital. Since we drove there separately we ended up with two cars. What are you going to do?

My little baby girl hasn't had a bow in her hair every day!

Mia has had her hair done maybe one time in the past week.

I don't have a million pictures of Tessa already. But the ones I have sure are cute :)

Tessa did not have a first name until she was a day old. It took us a week to pick a middle name. We had to have it called in by 2:30 pm on Thursday. I called the lady who did medical records at 2 pm on Thursday. Jared and I finally agreed upon one just one hour prior to that. And do we love it? Does it have any special meaning. Absolutely not. But she DOES have a middle name. It's Brianne.

So,so cute! I love her middle name. Your dad came over to my parents' for Easter dinner and I was asking him if you guys did middle names or not. He didn't really know. :)
