The Haddon's: June 5, 2010

One year ago on June 5, 2010 hubby & I drove to the Women & Children's hospital in anticipation of our little man's arrival! We got to the hospital around 10am and went right back to be set up for my scheduled c-section. After getting all the monitors hooked up and my IV started we quickly realized that those little twinges I had been feeling were labor pains! I was in active labor and had no idea! I contracted every few minutes but the contractions were nothing like Emma's delivery. Although I attribute those horrible pains to the pitocin! haha!! Heading into the operating room was familiar but a new experience all at the same time. The smells of the operating room brought back so many memories from Emma's delivery. After my spinal they began the process of bringing our little man into the world!! The delivery seemed to take forever but our little man was soon with us. He weighed in at 7lbs 15oz and was 19.5in long :) After being checked out and deemed as healthy our little man went out with daddy to meet his new big sister and the rest of the family! Emma was so amazed at the little being that was now hers. She was so careful and sweet with him.

Throughout the past year of Tanner's life he has brought so much joy to us! From the first time he crawled, walked, or said momma or dada he has been nothing but a blessing. We are so thankful for the precious gifts we have been given to raise and care for. I hope for the future that he will become an amazing person with so much love and happiness to share.

I'll leave you with photos to share our past yr with our amazing little man!!
