1st Week Home!

1st Week Home
We survived our first week! We actually made it through our first week as a family of four. WOW! We are a family of four. Of course we did have some help along the way. Bekah's parents were here for about a week, helping with Kaiden mostly. Today(Friday) was Bekah's first time to be at home by herself with both kiddos. Let's just say it was exhausting!! Kaiden has started to become a little more defiant lately so we are in the process of working with him to listen and obey mommy and daddy. Zachary is doing great! He is sleeping about 4 hour stretches at night, eating great, and seems to be a laid back child so far. We pray that he stays this way!!! Nick's dad is coming for a weekend visit on Saturday and will stay until Monday. We are looking forward to introducing him to his 2nd grandson.

He's arrived

Now presenting the long awaited arrival of our baby boy...

Zachary David Davaul !!!!!

Zachary was born on Wednesday, February 6, 2008 at 3:03pm. He was 6lbs. 12oz. and 19 1/4 inches long. We were scheduled to get induced on Wednesday morning, but when Bekah called that morning the hospital was full and her induction was pushed back until 10:30. We waited patiently at home and finally arrived at the hospital and was in our room by 11:00. Bekah was already experiencing contractions the night before, but they were irregular and very far apart. Wednesday morning around 10:00 on the way to the hospital her contractions were actually going about 10-15 minutes apart. She was progressing all on her own so her doctor decided to break her water about 12:00. After that her contractions began getting closer together and stronger, but still bearable. They decided to go ahead and give her pitocin(medicine for inducing) about 1:30 to strengthen her contractions. Bekah knew at that moment that she should maybe go ahead and ask for the epidural at the same time because she was starting to feel a lot of pain at this point. Well after they did the pitocin and the epidural she progressed very fast! An hour and a half later Zachary arrived into this world with ease! Mommy nad baby are doing great! We stayed in the hospital until Friday and arrived at home Friday evening. Kaiden is LOVING his new baby brother and is really a big helper. He is always wanting to hold him, kiss, him and love him. He is very gentle and it is so dang cute to see him with Zachary. We are so blessed to have such a beautiful healthy baby boy! Zachary had done really well, is already nursing like a pro and sleeping well. We are very excited to start our new adventure with two little boys!

Tomorrow is the big day!!!! I am scheduled to get induced on Wednesday, February 6 in the morning. We are really looking foward to going from a family of three to a family of four!!! How exciting does that sound. Now I will have 3 boys(including Nick) to take care of! Will post pics and an update later.

Please keep us in your prayers!

Kaiden is patiently waiting the arrival of his new baby brother! He is very anxious to help mommy with the baby and talks about him all the time. He is very interested in babies and is always wanting to help! We are hoping that his excitment stays that way when baby Zachary actually comes.

Mommy is now 37 weeks pregnant and is also anxously waiting for the arrival of our little boy. I went to the doctor today and we are scheduled to induce on Wednesday, February 6. As long as my appointment on Tuesday the 5th looks good then I will get induce the next day!!! So the countdown begins...how exciting! 5 more days!!

We will do our best to keep you all posted with new photos and updates.

It has been way too long since the last time we posted anything. Here is the new update!

We are expecting our second little boy any day now, Zachary David Davaul.
Kaiden is now 2 1/2 and has more energy then mommy and daddy combined!

My First Birthday party was great! I had my friends and family over for a pool party!

Somedays I just crack myself up!!!

Yes I would consider myself a COOL DUDE!!!

My mom and dad say I'm a messy eater. I have no idea what they are talking about!!! Look at the pictures and decide for yourself.

BATH TIME!
