Ayda and Zander

Here are a couple pics of the kids (it is kind of weird to know I am the mother of more than one child). This is before church and our first family picture. Thanks to my mom for taking the pictures and for spending the night at our house giving us a chance to sleep! We love you!!

He is finally here!

Thanks for all the well wishes while we were in the hospital. I am happy to announce that Zander Rodney Gower was born on May 26th at 10:41 pm. He weighed in at 8 pounds 1 ounce and was 21 and 3/4 inches long. Zander has a lot of beautiful brown hair and despite being 10 days late weighed 6 ounces less than Ayda, who was four days early. It was a long hard labor but thanks to Travis and my fancy doula sister Endre I did it! Welcome to the world little baby, we love you!

Three year pictures

I had been putting off getting Ayda's three year pictures because I thought I would have a baby and I would just get their pictures done at the same time. But the more I thought about it the more I wanted to get Ayda's taken care of. My sister Keely said she would take them for me and I thought that was a great idea. We went to my mom's house and did some outside as well as some inside the house. Ayda did pretty well, but she preferred playing with her cousins over smiling and posing.

That baby counter is a liar!

It says on the baby countdown thing that "it's go time" I just want everyone to know, I have not had the baby. I will be walking the CF walk tomorrow and maybe ride a few rides to get things moving! :)
