Merry Christmas

We got a little something extra in our stocking this year!!
Introducing
Reese Evelyn Thompson

It was quite the Christmas celebration this year with the arrival of our daughter, Reese. I woke up quite early Christmas morning feeling uncomfortable and woke up Troy shortly after to let him know that our day would not go as planned. Instead of an extended family Christmas party...we were going to extend our family! I was dead-set on having our Christmas before we went to the hospital...so we quickly ripped open our gifts with a very sleepy Kai. Didn't clean up or even have breakfast before we left. All went really well with the delivery...Reese was a trooper! We checked in at 9am and finally got to hold her at 2:26pm. She is one chunky baby, weighing in at 8lbs 10oz and measuring 21inches long!! She has some of the chubbiest cheeks I've seen on a baby...and is as beautiful as I imagined! We hope you all had a great Christmas - because ours was stinkin' AWESOME!!!! Merry Christmas!
