Easter Festivities

Coloring Easter Eggs

Braxton and Gavin coloring Easter eggs. Braxton said some funny things while we were coloring eggs. One of the eggs was a little cracked and Braxton said " I don't want it to hatch!" Then Gavin was eating an egg and Braxton saw that the middle of the egg was yellow, and he said " Oh so is the middle of the pink egg pink?" We had some good laughs.

Easter Egg Hunts

Braxton participated in three Easter egg hunts. He did the city egg hunt, the Smith egg hunt, and then with my family. Let's just say we are all egged out.

Bailey's first egg hunt in the stroller.

Logan helped hold the bag for Braxton, so he could get more.

Annual Smith Easter Picnic

Due to the weather we had the Easter Picnic in Craig's Barn, and it turned out great. The heaters were going and then later the Sun finally showed through. The kids had a blast playing all together and of course we had great food, as always. It was fun to relax and visit with everyone.

Jeff and Madi, soon to be married in June. They are such a cute couple.

Easter Morning

Braxton had fun trying to find his Easter basket and eggs. The Easter bunny even brought something for Bailey for her first Easter. We also enjoyed listening to General Conference this Easter.

Finding eggs, what a pose.

The Photos Begin

I apologize now for all the pictures I will be taking of Bailey, but newborns are just so much fun to take pictures of and little girls have so many cute outfits.

Vistors

We have been blessed to have such great family and friends come and visit and help with meals. Thank you so much for all your help. Sorry, to those I was not able to get pictures of.



My mom was the first one at the hospital after Bailey was born, but some how we never got a picture of her at the hospital, but she has been so kind to come over and keep me company, make dinner, help with cleaning and take Braxton. Thanks Mom

Bailey Jo Smith

Our Precious Little Girl arrived weighing in at 7 lbs. 10 oz. and 19 inches long. The C-section went really well, I was nervous, but it was so much better having it planned and it was so much better than the first one. I loved when Bailey came out she was crying and I could hear her. I was alert for this c-section and knew what was going on. It was such a special moment for Doug and I. So here are some pictures of these first moments and first few days.


Arriving at the hospital, about to get ready to be hooked up to the IV and prepare for the c-section.

All ready to go in and have my spinal block and have the c-section.

Bailey came out crying and did not like being cold.

After the intial assessments I was able to finally see her and she was able to sit my chest for about 5 min. longer than with Braxton, than they took her to the nursery, while they finished stitiching me up.

She is so sweet.

I finally get to hold her.

Bailey and her sweet older Brother. Braxton loves her so much and is always saying how cute she is or how gorgeous she is.

She has lots of good dreams, it is so cute to see her smile.

Baby Shower

Robyn and Jolynn were so sweet and threw me a baby shower. We had it at The Pizza Factory. It was perfect, we had a good time visiting and enjoying a good lunch. I got a lot of cute things for Bailey, there are so many cute things for girls. Thanks everybody for coming and for spoiling us.
