Jack William Novotny

After what seems like an eternity, Jack William Novotny made his grand entrance on Thursday, July 8 at 10:09 am. He weighed in at a whopping 8pounds 10 ounces, and 22 inches long! His labor and delivery were pretty traumatic, but in the end, we had our little guy, safe and sound, and that is really all that matters.
We are all completely in love with our newest addition!! The girls adore their new baby brother, but I think they are a little disappointed that they cant exactly play with him yet. Corey is the proudest Daddy I have ever seen and is literally glowing.
Me...well, there really are no words to describe how truly happy I am.

And now for the pictorial overload. I know there are tons of photos, but they were so hard to narrow down.
Enjoy!

My friend Mel came over yesterday to do a quick photo shoot for us. These are just a few of the amazing pics that came from it!! He was so great and practically slept through the entire shoot!!

Now, I know I am his mother and am therefore completely bias, but, ISNT HE PERFECTION!!!

My heart is about to burst! I am feeling so overwhelmingly blessed to have Corey and the girls and now baby Jack in my life...

Happy 4th of July!!!

Emily and Miss Spider

Another year, another book party! Emily's preschool class celebrated their annual Book Day today at school. Each child is supposed to come dressed as their favorite book character and bring in their favorite book. Emily chose Miss Spider's Tea Party, and this is what I came up with! I think it turned out pretty great considering I did it in one night. She was very excited with how it turned out and pranced into her classroom like only a fancy spider could!

The spidery legs were Emily's favorite part. (And the fancy headband of course!)

Miss Spider's back.

Miss Spider's favorite purple blossoms.

And of course, her teacups!

One proud little spider!!

...and one very happy mommy!

Time Flies When You're Incubating...

I know I have seriously dropped the ball on this blog. I have a good reason though, dont you think? Baby Boy Novotny is almost here, and I plan on returning with regular updates. Until then, here's a bit of cuteness to tide you over!!
