The Birthday - AnaBelle and Jordan!

On Tuesday night, we had a birthday party for AnaBelle's 4th birthday!  It was a small party with just us and Grandma and Grandpa.  We had a simple dinner of tacos and then some cake, strawberries, and ice cream.

Princess AnaBelle on her birthday!  We can't believe she's already 4!

Grandma gave them paints for Ana's birthday

Daddy got Ana some more princess puzzles

Our cute girls
The birthday party was cut short because Mommy started having contractions that were 3 to 5 minutes apart, so we headed to the hospital.

After some time on the monitors and waiting for our doctor to finish delivering other babies, we were admitted and scheduled for the C-section.  Our original schedule was July 2nd, but it looks like our baby boy had different plans!

Good job Mommy!  Meet your new son Jordan!

This is Daddy's baby photo.  Any resemblance?

We are very excited to have Jordan!  He is a very quiet little boy.  He sleeps most of the time and doesn't fuss much except during diaper changes and if he gets really hungry.

Thank you everyone who has helped us out watching kids and entertaining them while we welcomed baby Jordan into the world! What a coincidence that he happened to come on AnaBelle's birthday!
