Welcome Gracelyn Rae Hosford

Well today was quite a day!! :) An early Christmas gift for the Hosford and Carlson families. Gracelyn Rae was born to Dan and Tracy this morning at 11:20. She is 6lb. 11oz and 19in. long. Just a little sweetie! Both Mom and baby are doing fantastic. I have to go through all the million pictures Tom and I took today, but here are a few to start. We are very proud of both Dan and Tracy. Tracy was just amazing. Love you all.

Meeting Santa

Today Maddie met Santa Claus and actually didn't cry! :) She didn't really know what to make of him. She didn't smile, but more or less just sat there. :) Hey...at least there were no tears.

Courtright Family Christmas '06

Sunday was my Mom's side (Courtright) family Christmas gathering in Mt. Pleasant. My Grandma hosted and we all brought "the grub." It was wonderful seeing everyone! Maddie and Catherine, as you can see in the picture, got into the gifts before we had a chance to open them. I love the look on their faces.

Congratulations Aaron and Sarah!

We want to send out our congrats to Aaron and Sarah as they were married on Saturday Dec. 16th. Many blessings!!

Less then 6 weeks!!

Man........we are SOOOOO excited that in less than six weeks, we are going to have new little bundle of joy in the Hosford family. Gracie is on her way!! I'm placing bets that she will arrive early. Doctors aren't ALWAYS right. :) I say....oh....Jan. 5th. 8lbs. 7oz. Eh...just a guess.

I stole this picture from Katie and Austin's blog, so a thank you goes to Katie for the pic. Tracy, you have been such a trooper with your pregnancy! It's getting so close now and we are praying for a smooth and safe delivery.

Funny Faces

Just having fun. :)

Snowday Fun!!!

Madilyn and I spent the afternoon outside in the snow. What a BLAST!! She was a riot. She absolutely loved the snow, except when it got in her boots. Then...not so much. :) Here are a few cute pics.

Another Hosford Baby on the Way.

Babies!! Babies!! Babies!!!

Tom and I are pleased to share with you that we are expecting our second child in the summer. :) I'm not very far along, 6 weeks at most. We are so excited and couldn't be happier. Another little Hosford running around. :) Maddie of course will be the best big sister and already understands that Mommy has a baby in her belly. Thanks to months of practice with Aunt Tracy.
