I look at these pictures and my eyes fill with tears of joy. These are the first moments we were able to hold our little girl.

Welcome, Ashlynne Grace

Ashlynne Grace Mabin

April 22, 2010
1:14 AM
8 pounds, 2 ounces
21 inches

She has finally arrived. The big event came very fast. We arrived at the hospital at 11:30 pm and she was born at 1:14 am on Mom's birthday. I had no time to get an epidural but I only pushed for a few minutes. We weren't t able to hold her immediately because she had the cord around her neck and came out blue.....God was watching over us and taking care of us because she is perfect and healthy!!

I was in love as soon as I saw her...holding her was magical. It brought back memories of holding my sweet Michael. It is amazing how quickly my heart filled with love! Here are some shots of our sweet angel.

Easter Pictures

These are the pictures we had done of Michael, Nolan, Katie and Robby. They really turned out pretty cute...maybe next time the photographer will catch a smile from Michael but the pictures were so much better than Christmas!

This year with Michael's Easter bunny photo, Mike and I had to get into the picture because Michael started to cry and was trying to get off the bunny's lap. :)

Easter

April 12

Our Easter this year consisted of three Easter egg hunts, lots of candy, delicious food, lots of family, and chocolate Easter balls (compliments of Dave). The morning started out with Michael finding his Easter basket. The first thing he went for was a Cadbury Cream Egg(his new favorite). After that we had a little Easter egg hunt at home and then headed to church. We visited with the Mabin clan in the afternoon for another fun filled Easter egg hunt, and then we went to the Schanberger house for our third hunt and a beautiful dinner. All in all, the day was filled with happiness and love.
