Maybrie McCutchen

My last day of work before maternity leave, I got to labor one of my oldest friends. Sarah was such a champ and she made delivering Miss Maybrie look like a piece of cake. It was so special to be able to be there for her and to be one of the first to see Maybrie. I hope Maybrie and Colson will be as good of friends as Sarah and I. And I also hope they never date.

Daniel made it just in time!

Isn't she pretty?

Pseudo-Pregnancy

Callie has enjoyed watching my body change with this pregnancy and is curious about everything. She always tells me "wow mom, you are getting so big!" When she sees or feels her baby brother move, her face just lights up and she lets out the cutest squeal. She is so excited. She also reports to me that her boobies are getting big too and the baby is moving in her tummy all the time. I always catch her stuffing pillows under her shirt to pretend that she is pregnant. We were at the pool and she was watching herself breathe and swearing it was her baby. I have stopped allowing her to watch 16 and pregnant and I am scared for her to be a teenager!

Shower For Colson

I feel very spoiled that I had several people offer to throw a shower for me with this pregnancy. I felt guilty accepting with this being my third baby. But the girls at work insisted. I work with the most amazing group of women and they are the main reason I love my job so much. Even my doctor came to help us celebrate. I just love Dr. Reddy.

Aren't they creative?

They know the way to my heart

Callie was so excited for this shower

Grace opened up her beautiful home for us



Callie and Chandler were good helpers

Chase and Marion were just a couple of the adorable kiddos at the shower

Special thanks to Cassie our photographer for taking so many great pictures!

Love the Zunkers!

I still can't believe that my body can stretch this way. To say I get large with my pregnancies is an understatement.
I can't say thank you enough to all of you! Colson is already very loved!

3 Car Seats

I drive a small Lincoln MKX and I have been telling Shane for months that we will never fit 3 car seats in there. Here he is trying to prove me wrong. The doors barely shut, but they shut.

Someone is ready for a baby to be in here...

Big Bear

Michael's sister Becky gave Rachel this bear and then gave it to Cade after Rachel passed away. Cade sits on this bear while he does his speech therapy. During therapy one day, he got a little sleepy. He decided it was over and layed down and went to sleep.

Cade's Field Trip To The Zoo

Cade loves animals. At the petting zoo, he was hugging and kissing them. He was handed a brush to brush them but he brushed his hair instead.

I was very pregnant on this trip and had a hard time catching a run away Cade. Unfortunately, before I could get him, he threw his hearing aid into the Addax pen.

The zoo keepers wouldn't let me look because these big deer looking things can be dangerous. And of course, they couldn't find the hearing aid. What am I going to do with this kid?

Playing Outside

Callie always insists on playing in the front yard because she loves to ride her bike and visit with the neighbors. Cade just loves to be outside.

Come on Cade, we are taking a picture!

He's not cooperating

Sibling love

I made him wear the boots because he always finds the ants

Callie always insists on taking a few herself. She wanted everyone to see how lazy I am.

36 Weeks

I didn't take many prego pics this time because I always feel depressed once I see how big I actually am. My cousin insisted on a picture so I took one. I am getting very uncomfortable!
