Growing girl...






It's hard to believe that Tatum will be 2 months old soon. She has so much personality already, she loves to smile and is making so many different noises. We have been very blessed to have a baby girl that loves to sleep. We just made the transition from bassinet to crib on Friday (mommy's first night back to work), so daddy did all the work. She is doing wonderful, she sleeps through the night, she makes it too easy on us!!!

Train ride

Tatum went on her first train ride. Pa Pa, Mammy, Aunt Crystal, cousin Kingston, Tatum, and me got to enjoy a nice train ride in Bardstown, Ky. The train was robbed by cowboys!! Aunt Crystal is holding Tatum while she sleeps through the experience. We also visited Nashville, TN. and Gulf Shores, Ala. on Tatum's first vacation.


So much to do...

Tatum did so many things in the first month. Here she is with uncle Scott on Coby's 4-wheeler, she also took a wheelbarrow ride with Grandpa Sandusky, Sydney, and Coby. Tatum also went to the Cabarrus County fair where she experienced her first concert, Keith Anderson, and she sat on the pink tractor. She also got to ride in Pa Pa's "OLD BLUE" truck!!



Under the lights!




Tatum had to go back in the hospital two days after we left, she had jaundice. We thought she just had a real pretty skin color (she still does even without the jaundice)!!! Look at those sunglasses! It was harder on us than it was her, she stayed under the lights overnight, and was only allowed out to eat and to be changed.

Tatum is finally here!!



We have waited so long to meet our baby girl, and she is finally here!! Tatum was born on Wednesday August 28, 2008 at 3:52 p.m. and weighed 6 pounds and 13 oz., and was 20 inches long. She is beautiful, and the spitting image of her daddy right now!

Waiting on Tatum...




It seems like so long ago when we were having trouble trying to have a baby. Now here we are, at one of the happiest points in our lives waiting for our baby to arrive. We can't wait to finally meet her!
