Merry Christmas at the Stimpson Home

Santa brought us a new dishwasher and God brought us a baby girl!

Our Little Christmas Present

We got up early Tuesday morning to head out to the hospital. Even though Lee plowed the snow out of our driveway the day before, it needed it again. Luckily one of the mechanics was already up and plowing and cleared the way for us. We spent Lee's birthday in the hospital, hoping that anytime Charity would be born. We watched the time pass by slowly and watched midnight approach. Five minutes before midnight the doctor sad we were good to start delivering. We pushed only for 20 minutes and at 12:15 AM on the morning of Christmas Eve Charity was born.
She is as cute as can be and is such a good baby. She slept well though the night and the next day.

The waiting game is nearly done!

Today, we are doing all of our last minute errands and chores around house and town. We're trying to get everything set. Tomorrow we get to go into the hospital and have our baby girl, Charity, be born! And on Christmas day, weather permitting, we get to bring her home.
It's a great time to celebrate! Tomorrow is also Lee's birthday, so from now on Daddy and Daughter will get to share their special day.

Charity's Quilt

Grandpa & Grandma McCain stepped in and are helping with Charity's quilt that we had started but never finished. They are almost done. This is a picture of the front of the quilt. Grandma says it reminds her of a candy store. You can easily tell which one block I did compared to all of the other blocks Grandpa and Grandma put together.

Thank you, Grandpa & Grandma McCain!

Still Waiting - 38 Weeks

Waiting Time

Lee and I are in our last week of school. We are just working on finals and last minute touches to the nursery, as we wait wondering when Charity will decide to be born. Our little family is about to grow really soon, as Lee and I become parents to a tiny little girl. We're hanging in there as best as we can and simply waiting.
