Today is Todd Daniel’s birthday! He was born at 1:18pm at United Regional Hospital in Wichita Falls. He weighed in at 6lb 9oz and was 19.5 inches long. He was really similar to Russell’s size. Preston and Russell had a good time visiting him in the hospital, and they seemed to be thrilled to get to meet him! Donna was a trooper, and is doing great now.
It won’t be long at all now before Todd Daniel is born. It is looking like it will be no later than the 12th. I am really excited, but a little nervous too. Donna and I have been working with the kids on keeping their room (and all the others they destroy!) clean. I think we’re about as ready as we’re going to be!
Thanksgiving is this week. We’ve got a lot of work to do around the house in preparation for Todd Daniel’s birthday. We’ve got his crib, which is much nicer than my bed ;). It’s hard to clean the house up, when right behind you are two little tornadoes that are destroying at a much faster rate than you can clean. Donna has been working very hard to get everything ready for Todd Daniel, but Preston and Russell seem to be out to sabotage her work! We are expecting him to be born within the next couple of weeks. We will still be visiting Mom and Dad in Ardmore for Thanksgiving, so there is the possibility that he could be born in Ardmore! We will see… Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Donna had her ultrasound today. The new baby is a boy! I think his name is going to be Todd Daniel. Now we’ll have three boys running around the house. Exciting! 🙂
