Hey ya all, sorry that it's been way too long. Like I have been saying we don't have a working camera and so we are using my in-laws and I don't know how to down load the pictures from that camera to our computer and I just can't get Mark to sit down and do it so sorry about going forever with out new pictures but they will be coming soon. I just have to convince my husband to help me out. But things are going good. Rhagen is just growing like a weed and Roxy too. We have so much fun with those girls. Roxy loves to be the big sister and is such a help. Poor Rhagen gets helped a little too much but she's still alive so we're good, Right? Rhagen also has acid reflex really bad and has a hard time being comfortable. We've got her on meds right now which seems to help with her not throwing up so much but she still just has a hard time feeling good. Doc says that she will grow out of it but the peck for it all is at 4 months and we have a long road ahead of us. That's all right she's cute so it makes up for it.
Can I just say that I love being a mom. The job is really hard sometimes but it's so worth it. I have so much to be grateful for right now and I just feel really blessed. Having a husband who has provided for us so well and two beautiful daughters and just wonderful friends and family, who could ask for more. The Lord has really blessed us lately and I didn't make it to F&T meeting today so you all get my shpill about how grateful I am.
Oh some good news, we got the date that my bro Trevor gets home. July 24th so we are all really excited. What a great way to celebrate Pioneer Day than with Trev coming home. Anyways well here's our update and again sorry about the no picture thing but we will get some up soon. Love you all and good night.

Newest Addition
Our wait is over! Rhagen Elisabeth came into the world Tues the 20th at 2:11 p.m. Weighing in at 7lbs 7oz and 20 in long. Labor and delivery were both very quick. Mark and I showed up at the hospital around 7:30 (mind you with no contractions) and the Dr came in and gave me the pill around 9:00 a.m. and Rhagen was born just after 2:00. Mark and I had some good times listening to a few moans and groans and we were lucky enough to hear a natural child birth while waiting for our own room. We also had a fun trip down to the cafeteria to have breakfast. I did have an epidural but like Roxy it only worked on my left side, and by the time I got the epidural and was pushing they couldn't do much more for me. Big thanks to my mom for being my coach and helping me breath through those contractions or I wouldn't have been able to do it. Only pushing through 2-3 contractions Rhagen was here. Big thanks to all who were there Dr. King, my nurse, Mom and of course Mark. Shortly after having Rhagen, Roxy and Grandma Tobler came to see us. Oh and a Big thanks to Jeri for helping us out with Roxy and allowing my mom to be with us. Only wanted to stay one night we were able to come home Wed. My mom was able to stay all week and help us out. Rhagen and I are doing very well and just moving right along. Thanks again to all our family and friends for all your prays and love. We love you all and hope that it wont be too long before we see you again.

Baby Update
Well I know that a lot of you are wondering about our new addition. So... I had my last Dr. appointment today! YES!!! He checked to see where I stood and then striped my membrane. He said that if I don't have the baby today then give him a call tomorrow morning and he will get me in at the hospital. Needless to say we are all very excited! My mom is coming down and bringing her camera so we will be able to post some pictures of our little Rhagen as soon as we get home. We are so excited and have been waiting for her to join our family. I'm hoping for tomorrow because all of us will then be born on the 20th. So maybe we will have all 4 of us on the same day. Thanks for all your love and support. Until next post with a tribute to our little Reggie(as Roxy likes to call her) thanks for your prays.
