Welcome To The World Ty Allen!

We welcomed Ty into the world on Wednesday March 2nd at 7:34am! Just like his big sister, he didn't wait for his scheduled c-section. I had contractions off and on for a couple of days leading up to his birthday. I woke up around 2:30 Wednesday morning with strong contractions. I got out of bed and tracked the contractions. They were coming every five minutes for two hours, so I woke Ryan up and told him we needed to head up to the hospital. Thankfully, we already had most of our things packed and Leah was staying the night with my parents. When we made it to the hospital, I was dilated one centimeter, so they went ahead and called my doctor to come up! We headed into the OR around 7:05, and got to meet our son just a few minutes later. It was absolutely amazing hearing his precious cry! I just kept thanking God for letting everything go so well. The surgery went perfectly and the recovery was harder this time around, but I am getting better everyday. We are so in love with Ty and cannot get enough of him. Ryan and I are so blessed to have Leah and Ty and we are in awe of the amazing things that God has done in our lives.

Leah finally wanted to get in the bed with me. She wasn't so sure about her mommy laying in this big bed. But, she finally got up there to snuggle with her little brother.
This is the perfect shirt for Ty!

All dressed up and ready to head home. He looked so adorable!
We wanted to take a family picture before we left to go home. But, miss Leah was not the least bit interested. So we took a picture with our little guy in front of our hospital room.
I am so thankful to finally have Ty in my arms. I am one very blessed mommy!
