Oh My Gosh...Our Daughter Has A Mohawk

Ivy Kate's hair just keeps a growing and with the cowlick in the back...it looks as if she has a mohawk. I tried to take some pictures this morning to get the full effect. She was chillin' in her frog pajamas in her Boppy!

Hopefully, the rest of her hair will catch up, so she won't have a mohawk in kindergarten!

Memorial Day Weekend

This weekend was lots of fun. We went out to eat 4 times! We went to two cookouts! We had company in from out of town! And we got to hang out with Daddy for an extra day!

I was trying to take a photo of Ivy Kate's dress before we went to the neighborhood cookout, but I wasn't successful. So, this is the best I could get.

I hope everyone else had as a great of Memorial Day Weekend as we did!

Luke's High School Graduation

This past weekend my little brother Luke graduated from Starkville Academy. We're so proud him! Here is a picture of my family. Luke was trying to pick up chicks with Ivy Kate!

Congrats, Luke! We love you!

New Pics of Little Miss Ivy Kate

It is hard to think that Ivy Kate has been here for almost a whole week. We've had so much fun and have enjoyed all the family that came to meet our little sweet pea. Ivy Kate has also enjoyed all the loving she has gotten while everyone was here. I just wanted to share a few pics, but don't worry...there will be plenty more to come.

One of the few outfits that will fit her little self right now, but isn't she the cutest "sweet pea"!

Her coming home outfit. It is the same Feltman Brothters dress I wore home from the hospital. Thanks, Mom, for keeping it all these years!

Hope everyone has a Happy Mother's Day! Will post more pictures later!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, IVY KATE!

This is Heather. Ashley asked me to post the exciting news: Sweet Ivy Kate has arrived!

Here at her stats:

Ivy Katherine Benjamin (I hope I spelled everything correctly)
May 7, 2007
11:25 a.m.
6 lbs, 2 oz.
20 inches

Ashley called at noon to tell me the good news. She sounded GREAT! Ashley said she is precious with a head full of brownish hair.

She went in this morning at 6:30 to get induced. Last night she told me it would probably be later this afternoon, so when she called at noon I was not expecting Ivy Kate to already be here!
I am going to the coast sometime in the next few days to meet her...I can't wait!

CONGRATS ASHLEY AND JOHN!

WELCOME TO THE WORLD, IVY KATE!

Baby on the Way...

We just got back from the doctor and if Ivy Kate doesn't come by Monday...we are scheduled to induce that morning. It is finally setting in that she will be here next week.

We're so excited!

Please keep us in your prayers during this truly exciting time as our family is about to expand!
