Introducing Kolton Kade Hanks

So I know that back in September I said that an update was coming soon, but the truth is I have the update written I was just waiting to get the pictures all put together. Therefore, until I can get those pictures in place I thought I would let you know of a couple of new things happening, one major event that took place is that we had our little boy. Kolton Kade Hanks was born on Thursday, February 4th at 3:14pm and was 8lbs 2oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. He originally was due on the 8th but I didn't want to wait that long and I didn't want to risk him being as big as Kimber had been, which when all said was done he only weighted in 2oz less than Kimber. Anyway, things went really smooth and if I can I will always be induced, that was great! One happy family! Kimber loves being a big sister! Things have been going really well. He doesn't sleep the entire night like Kimber had but he does allow me to sleep at least 2-3 hours between each feeding which is nice and he does like to sleep in, that he gets from me. Kimber is doing great with the whole baby thing. She is my little helper for sure and just can't love him enough. Whenever he cries she is right there trying to make him happy by trying to give him binkies or a blanket. She does a great job getting me things for him and is just overall fascinated by him. Thanks to everyone for their e-mails, phone calls, and visits! Kade waiting patiently. Happy to be done being pregnant! Finally going home. How cute are these!

Congratulations you guys!!!! He is so stinkin' adorable! Look how gorgeous he is! So glad that everything went well and that Kimber is taking on the role of big sister so great. We miss you guys and need to see you. A trip that way is not looking likely in the near future. We expect to see many many more pics of your cute family. Can not believe how big Kimber has gotten. She is SO cute. (I think I'm seeing more of Karli in her now.)
