Welcome to the World Thomas!












He's here! He's finally here! After 32+ hours of labor Thomas Solomon Caugh entered our world on July 19, 2009 at 5:22 pm weighing 8.1lbs and 20.5 inches long! We can't stop watching, staring and looking at him. He is precious and we are so grateful to have him in our family!

Baby Shower #2!!!

The nurses I work with at Germantown Methodist Hospital threw me another sweet baby shower! They are some of the sweetest, generous, and thoughtful coworkers I have ever worked with. Baby received some of the most adorable outfits, books, toys, diaper bag, diapers and so much more! We celebrated at the Olive Garden and had the best time! Below are some pictures from the fun event!














One of my most favorite gifts is a hand-painted canvas by the amazing artwork of my nurse educator Karon Steen. Since our nursery theme is baby turtles she painted the most perfect piece of art. We just love it! Thank you, Karon!

As we get closer and closer to our new arrival we will be keeping you posted!

New Birthday

Since our sweet little baby has decided to stay in the breech position for the last 9-10 months we have opted to schedule a Cesarean section to help him get out into the world. His birthday (tentatively) will be July 18th, 2009, just a week earlier than planned! We can hardly wait until he gets here. Although, with this new date, mom and dad are working like crazy to get the nursery ready. The dresser and changer are ready, the glider/rocker are ready for late night feedings and baby's "big-boy-bed" is ready. The only thing left is the crib. Daddy is working hard every day sanding, painting, and tweaking the crib so it is just perfect for baby boy Caugh! Daddy also put the Pack N Play together as well as the stroller and carseat, so we are just about ready to go!



Mommy has washed all of the onesies, outfits, washcloths, burp cloths, and towels. The last thing left to do is pack the suitcase for the hospital! We will keep you all apprised on "junior" and his cameo appearance into the world!
