A visit from my Great-Grandparents

Today my Great-Grandparents stopped by to visit me. They both held me and talked to me. It was really great to see them once more. I can't wait until they come by and visit again!

A letter to my wife


Emma with her mom, originally uploaded by bosox026.

Nearly one week ago, I learned what strength and courage is. Last Saturday, my wife went into labor with my beautiful daughter. The moment that we had waited nine months for was going to happen in just a matter of hours. It was at that time that I saw how incredible my wife is. The way that she dealt with the pain and discomfort was nothing short of heroic. This short note cannot adequately express my love and gratitude for the gift that she has given me. I want everyone who reads this to know that my wife, Meredith, is one of the most incredible people that I know.... and to top it all off, she's my wife. I have been blessed by God. I love you, Meredith.

Love,

Aaron...

They are both sleeping with their hands on their faces. Too cute.

Abby and Gracie don't seem to be too interested with Emma right now.

Emma had her first doctor visit on Thursday. She has gained 3.5 ounces since coming home from the hospital and her doctor says she is doing just great.

We got home around 1:30pm Tuesday. Meredith's mother made this sign to announce her arrival.

Worth the wait!

It was fitting that at the end of the day the clouds parted a bit to allow a rainbow to form outside our window.

At the hospital now.

Well, our baby had some other plans it would seem. We got to the hospital at 11am this morning. We still have some time to go, but all is progressing well so far.

Just the two of us

Meredith and I went down to the lakeshore tonight to see the sun set on Lake Erie before the baby comes. It was a beautiful night to sit and watch the lake. It is hard to believe that in less than 48 hours (we hope) that we will be parents. Our next entry will be pictures of our beautiful little girl.

Anxiously Waiting

When will she get here? What is her name? These are just a few questions being asked by Abby and Gracie as they wait for the new arrival with anticipation.

Good News!

Today our doctor told us that if Meredith does not go into labor before Saturday, that we should go to the hospital to be induced. The baby will most likely be born on Sunday, June 22. We are so excited and ready for this! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers!

One week to go.


It seems like yesterday that we were telling our family that we were pregnant, and now there is only one week to go! The room is ready, the car is ready, and Meredith's suitcase is ready. The only thing left is to actually have this baby. Our family is very excited as are we. The next post will have pictures of our little bundle of joy.
