Giving everyone an inside look at what I looked like BEFORE I had Colton! Wow! I gained so much weight! Here are a few other pictures that were taken while we were at the hospital. They aren't all flattering, but the memories are worth it! Jot me a few lines and let me know how you all are doing.

Colton is doing much better now. The Dr. switched his formula to Nutramigen so he is not screaming after I feed him anymore. He has a very sensitive stomach! He is already growing like a weed and he will be a month old this week! It is so AMAZING
! I am glad to be home with him and life with four kids takes a lot of adjusting! Trips to the store are done at night or while Elizabeth and Melanie are visiting Mom and Dad!

Hope to hear from you all soon! Love ya'll and God Bless!!!

Well, time flies when you are having fun! Melanie turned 4 this past week, July 19th. Where has the time gone? *sniff* The girls got to stay the night at Mima's house Friday night and Pawpaw decided to take them to Sandy Lake Park Saturday since Melanie wanted to have a picnic. They had so much fun as you can tell! Elizabeth rode everything and Melanie rode everything but the horses. Elizabeth decided to stay another night, but Melanie came home. She was so tired when Tommy picked her up! It was worth it though! Just look at those smiles!

Colton Dean Nix

Okay, I know it has been a few days since I was on and updated everyone, but I have been extremely busy here!

To start, I went into the hospital and had Colton Dean on July 6th! My labor was longer than any of the other kiddos, but I finally had him at 3:22 p.m. and he was 9 lbs. 1.5 ozs! Amazing! Imagin if I had carried him another week and had him when I was actually due! WOW!!! Check him out! Isn't he cute! We are still adjusting here at the house. The first week we took Melanie and Wyatt to daycare all week so I could at least have some recovery time since I had my tubes tied also. This week has been more hectic because everyone is at home! Four kids is harder to adjust to than I thought it would be. We had to make a trip to Wal-Mart the other day and I made sure it was a fast trip! As it was I figured out that I can no longer fit all the smaller kids into a basket which meant Melanie and Elizabeth had to walk. Anyone who has spent anytime with Melanie knows how hard it is to contain her! I grabbed the formula I needed and got to the checkout line just as Colton decided he wanted his diaper changed so I had to listen to him cry while I was checking out!!! Oh the life! I don't know how mom did it with 6 kids.

Here is his web nursery site with more pics of him: http://www.growingfamily.com/webnursery/babypage.asp?UrlID=6L0L0X9R1J

As soon as I get more pictures developed I will post them!

Yesterday was Melanie's 4th birthday! So far we have no party plans. We will probably just have cake and ice cream here at the house and give her a few presents on Saturday. Nothing big. Melanie won't care! She only sees the cake, ice cream, and presents!
