Christmas trees

Ah the joy and thanks of the season we are in now, the snow the cold weather, oh and the yummy hot chocolate. There is nothing like this time in the world, especially when it's with family. I really look forward to this time every year giving thanks for the things the Lord has given us and one of those things that I am most grateful for is my wife and son who have been and are the greatest people in my life.they inspire me to do all I can.it had been tough the last couple of months with the lack of good stable work but they have been there to help me always. Also I give thanks to my parents for all the support they have given by letting us live at home with them.

This past saturday was a fun day we as a family went to kiabab mountain to get christmas trees. Even though we didn't get a tree it was a nice outing to the snowy mountains. Seeing the family and some old friends. As soon as I get the pictures uploaded I will post a couple pictures of tanner driving with grandpa. He is such a cutie.

Hospital

Well we had a pretty good stay while we were at the hospital, the nurses were very nice and our doctors and pediatricians were amazing to.  It was fun having family come and visit with us, Tanner got to meet Grandma Susan Blake and Grandma and Grandpa Ipson, and even a couple of his Aunts.  We have such an amazing family.  Grandma Blake is staying with us while she is here.

Of course everyone who has children know how tiring it can be and exhausting…these pictures just show how beautiful Tanner is and how loved he is…I got to do a lot of the pictures except for the two that were of me. but I sure did enjoy being able to be there and support my lovely wife in all that she did in preparation for this miraculous event.

Tanner Blake Ipson

Tanner Blake Ipson was born on Aug 19, 2010 at 8:20 am, he was born at 8lbs 2oz and 20 inches long.
He has a full head of hair and is a very beautiful child...I will have pictures on here soon, but for now I am waiting for some of them to come from family that was here and took pictures so hang tight.

Baby update

Well, here I am Aug 19, 2010, 5:21 in the morning listening to my little boys heart beat in his mommies tummy.  at approximately 1:30ish Dani's water broke so we called the hospital and they told us to come in to make sure that it was just that.  We went in and had some tests done to make sure that it was her water breaking not anything else and check to see if she was having any contractions...sure enough both tests came out positive so they told us that we would be staying (we were emitted) and Dani was hooked up to an IV because she tested positive for strep b(something that can be Harmful to Tanner. The IV is suppose to help lower the risk of anything passing to Tanner during the Labor.

Dani just might kill me for putting this on here, but all well.

Leslie is our nurse right at the moment and her tech is Kamille, but soon at six we will be having a shift change and getting a new crew of nurses in.

At this point in time Dani's mom is driving down here to be with us during this time, and at the same time Dani's Contractions have sped up to about every three minutes and have been pretty consistent in strength and timing.  She is a trooper, all women who have baby's are amazing. that's a lot of pain you go through.  I am especially grateful for my wife and all she does for me. She is AMAZING!!!! and I can't wait to be a parent with her.

For most of you who don't know we are having a BOY!!! and we are naming him Tanner Blake Ipson.

What a Journey it has been over the last nine months.  First we start out by going to the ER because of the pain that Dani went through and come to find out not only were we then reaffirmed that she was pregnant but the pain was from a cyst.  we had thought from the beginning that it may have been a tubal pregnancy but thankfully it was not.  but now we are just getting through next the rough part of the actual labor.

I'll post more later when more news comes.
