Conference Weekend

During Conference I always think "What was going on in my life last Conference weekend?" and "What will be happening in my life next Conference weekend?". Well, I can tell you exactly where I was last Conference.....in the hospital.

It was Anita's (my Mother-in-law) Birthday on Saturday April 2nd and Andrew and I were getting ready to welcome little Charlie into the world. I remember Andrew and I driving to the hospital so excited, nervous, anxious, scared, and ready to have this baby. We went in to be induced at 8:00 and everything went smooth and pretty quick. I was ready at about 2:00 and six minutes later Charlie was born! He weighed 6 pounds 15 ounces and was 19 3/4 inches. It is hands down the neatest day I have ever experienced! I was so grateful to have my husband by my side the whole time. I was also grateful for my Mom and everyone that came to the hospital to see our sweet little bundle of joy. What a fun weekend to have a baby (and not to mention on his Grammy's Birthday)! I thought I would watch Conference while we were waiting for things to progress and of course watch it on Sunday too. That whole weekend I only heard bits and pieces of one talk....but I will always remember where I was during the spring session of General Conference 2011, and there was no other place I would have rather been.

Happy six month Birthday my sweet Charlie!
You bring more joy into our lives than we could have ever imagined.
You are growing so so so fast and we love it and hate it all at once.
We love you more and more each day :)
