Then comes the Kellar's with a baby carriage!

And this is finally the beginning of this precious baby boys story!


I was induced on 9/8/09 at 7 am. If you have read my profile at all, you will see that he was born on 9/9, so my labor story is definitely a good one! We went to the hospital and to make a very long and grueling story short, I was in full on labor (without epidural) for around 17 hours before they informed me that I was going to have to have a C-section. So I got the epidural so I could sleep for a few hours. After that short nap, I was taken to the OR and at 2:26 am Hudson Brandt Kellar arrived! He was 7 lbs 15 oz, 20 in long. He was perfect in every way and we thank God for that every day.

Our First Family Picture

So that smile in the picture was a very forced smile. I was so sick and shaking like crazy. Shaking so hard that I could barely hold him when we got back to the room. I had to have Tommy and my mom help me. The first 2 hours of his life were a complete blur. I wasnt able to nurse, so Tommy fed him his first bottle. He's such a natural dad. He has been wonderful from day one. I am so blessed to have such an amazing husband and father to my baby.

Hudson was so good from the beginning too. He slept well, ate well and was always so aware of everything. My mom still always says, He doesnt know how old he is! He acts like he is 2! Ha! I think she is pushing that a little bit, but he has always seemed like he is big boy.

Then comes marriage...







Tommy and I were married on June 16, 2007. It was such a hot day, but it was beautiful! I have gone to a Christian church my whole life. My great grandmother has gone to this church all her life also. So it is a very special and sentimental place. It is an old white rustic church with a steeple and all. About 300 people attended and that was about how many we invited so it was a great turnout! It was a very exhausting day, but well worth it!
