Sleeping Habits

Every night before we go to bed we always check on Hailey, give her kisses and cover her up (she hates to be covered up, so we have to wait until she is asleep). The other night when Aaron checked on her before going to bed this is what he found. Funny girl!!!

We're here!!!!!

Here are the vital statistics that you all have been waiting for, Christopher Aaron Walton was 6lb 3oz, 19 inches long and was born at 4:40pm on October 21 2008 and Madalynne Lily Walton was 6lb 1oz, 18 1/2 inches long and was born at 4:43 pm on October 21 2008. Both are doing great and so are mom and dad. Big sister, Hailey loves her new baby brother and sister, although she is currently at my parents and hasn't been home with them yet. I don't think that her feelings will change once she is back home. Here are some pictures for all of you to enjoy. You can also go to Mercy.org and check out the pictures that the hospital took.

Wish me luck

Tomorrow is the day!!! Tomorrow I go to the hospital to be induced. Maddie and Chris are coming out weather they like it or not. I think they will like it!! There are so many people who can't wait to meet them that I don't think they will be put down for the first month of their life. Aaron is at work today, but then he will be off the next three weeks to help me with everything. I know that we are in for a BIG change, but it will be a wonderful change!!!!! As soon as we can we will get pictures up on the blog so everyone can see them.

Aaron's 30th Birthday

Aaron is turning 30 on October 15th. Kind of scary that he will become the father of three the same month that he is turning 30. I already tell him that he is really old. I have kind of been waiting for this all year and wanted to do something special, but once we found out that we were having twins that idea went out the window. I was unsure of when the twins would come and how everything would go with the pregnancy, so we are going to have a nice quiet, small party at home. However, I would like you all to do me a favor. If you could please type up a memory about Aaron. What ever you want: funny, heartfelt, entertaining, whatever. Then send it to me either my email or the old fashion way, by mail. I want to put them all together in a book for him. Kind of like a recap of the past 30 years. If you want to write up more than one memory that would be great!! And if you know of more people that would like to contribute that would be great too!!! Thanks for your help.
