Newborn Pictures

We had newborn picutres taken of Morgan when she was about 2 weeks old. We finally got the pictures and they are so adorable! She was wide awake for most of the photo shoot. Mason was even being pretty good and took a few pictures with her. Morgan in her cute newborn dress. I love this dress and she was only able to wear it twice before it was too small for her.

Mason is the best big brother ever!

I had to keep a close eye on Mason during this picture. He kept wanting to climb in the basket with Morgan.

Morgan got to wear the cutest tutu for this picture.


Mason loves his baby sister so much. I know everyone thought Mason was going to beat up on her but he is so nice and gentle with her and he loves taking pictures with her.

This is my favorit picture of Morgan. I love the hat she is wearing - so cute!

Morgan's Blessing

We had Morgan's baby blessing on September 27th at our chuch. It was so nice and Shane gave Morgan a wonderful blessing. Mason was even a good boy in church. He usually likes to run around and be noisy. It was nice to have some of our family there. We missed having Hadley, JoAnna and Evan there since they just moved to Kansas for Law School.

Morgan did great during the blessing. She slept the entire time we were at the church. She looked so cute in her dress. I especially loved her little bracelet she wore.

Mommy and Morgan - and Morgan is ready for a nap!



Day at the Zoo

Grandma Lomax and Aunt Shalese came for a visit to see Morgan and Mason. Daddy took Shalese to work with him one day so Mason, Morgan, grandma and mommy went to the zoo! It was a very nice day. Probably one of the last we will have before cold weather hits. Mason loved to see all the animals. He also like grandma pulling him around in his wagon.

Mason was so excited to climb on the Rhino. He was getting very impatient waiting for other kids to get down.

There was a baby giraff at the zoo. Mason was most excited to see the giraff's.


We all had fun at the zoo - even Morgan. It was her first time and see did great (she slept the whole time which was nice for me).

1 Month Old

Morgan was one month old on September 11th. It is so amazing how time flies and how much she has grown. I love these sleeping pictures. She looks like a little angel when she sleeps.



Mason loves his baby sister so much! He is the biggest help with her too. He will get me a diaper, birp cloth or blanket when she needs one. In this picture he had one of her washclothes and is washing her head.

Morgan Lin Lomax

Morgan Lin Lomax was born on August 11, 2009 at 2:07 pm. She was 6 lbs 10 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. My doctor scheduled my induction at 6:30 am! We were already pretty tired from getting everything ready the day before so we were pretty tired. We got to the hospital at 6:30 and I was in my room and changed getting my IV in and started the petocin by 7:00 am. My doctor came in around 8:00 and I was dialated to a 4. She came back at 9:00 to break my water. Around 11:00 I got my epideral which was so much easier and less painfull than it was with Mason. With Mason the guy told me that it would just be a small poke for the numbing needle but he was totally wrong and I flinched a little and he yelled at me! Anyway...this anestieologist was great - the needle didn't feel great but at least he was nice and didn't yell at me. Shane even looked at the needles and described to me how long they were. Then he started to get a little queesy and had to sit down. After I got the epideral The doctor came in the check me and I was dialated to a 5 at around 12:45. About 45 minuted later I kept getting these pains which I thought were the contractions so I kept pushing the button to have the medicine come. That really didn't help and Shane had to go get the nurse. She can in to check me and I was fully dialated to a 10 and the baby was coming! At this point I was pretty freaked out since I didn't anticipate it to happen that fast. The doctor and a bunch of nurses came rushing in and had to hurry and set things up. Once they were ready the doctor told me to push and her head came out. She had the cord wrapped around he neck so they had to hurry and cut it. The next push she came out! The doctor later told us that everything that could go wrong with the cord did. It was wraped around her neck and it was only about 12 inches long and normally it is almost double that. With Mason I was so worried about the cord being around his neck but it wasn't so I didn't even really worry about it this time and it happened! The doctor and nurses were worried about Morgan's color and her breathing so they took her to the nursery but Shane was able to bring her back with in about 15 minutes because she was really improving. We can hardly believe that we have a beautiful little girl. She is the sweetest baby ever! Mason loves her so much. Shane brought his to see us in the hospital that night and he was a little upset because he was more concerned about me and where I had been but once he saw baby sister he got a big smile. he is always giving her kisses and petting her "fuzzy" head.

This is the newborn picture they take in the hospital. We think she looks a lot like Mason. She has his same nose checks and chin just a little bit smaller (Mason was almost a whole pound bigger than her).
This was the day we brought her home from the hospital. She is so tiny! It's hard to believe than in a few months she will almost fill the whole car seat up!

Mason loves baby sister so much! He is the best helper too. He will give Morgan toys to play with and will even giver her his buddy (blanket) which is amazing since normally if another kid comes near his buddy he will push them down to rescue buddy (just ask Cameron and Evan). Before Morgan was born Mason still seemed like my baby but now that we have a newborn again he seems so huge!

Mason's 2 Year Old Pictures

Mason had his 2 year old pictures taken. He did so well. At first he is usually shy of the photographer but once he sees that he is getting his picture taken he will ham it up. He takes such good pictures that we usually end up getting a picture of each pose. He is such a happy kid and we love him so much!

Happy Birthday Mason!

Mason's turned 2 on July 15th. We celebrated his birthday a few days before but we still had to sing to him on his actual birthday. The night before Mason "helped" me make cupcakes. He likes to watch the mixer mix everything and I have to watch him to make sure he doesn't stick his fingers in the beaters while they are moving. He loved to like the beaters or the spatula. He make a huge mess of his face!

Mommy and daddy sang Happy Birthday to Mason and had him blow out his 2 candles. Instead of making a wish he decided to touch the flam on the candle and end up with a burned finger! Poor kid - but he was tough and didn't cry about it.
