Christmas time with the family....

It has been a year of so many changes for the Colby Clan :) Clint and I were married this year. We bought a house. I started a new job. And finally we welcomed the newest addition to our family...our little Ruby Jane!! Some days I feel like my head is still spinning!! Christmas time in our home was full of laughs and excitement. We spent our first Christmas as a family in our first home together. We later went over to Grandma and Grandpa Green's house for more present time...I am not sure what to bribe or threaten the girls with now Santa is gone for another 365 days. This motherhood is a tricky business, still trying to figure it out! We are excited to spend some time next week with Clint's family next week and show off Ruby!! We miss them and are sad they are so far away!! I know I say this on every post but Clint and I are truly grateful for all the love and support our family and friends have showered on us this year! We feel so lucky and blessed as the year is coming to an end...hopefully 2010 slows down A LOT!!

More of Ruby's big day....

My poor husband works nights and went a few days with minimal sleep...He was a trooper and never left my side...I would have never survived those 24 hours without him by my side! I love you Clint with all my heart!! I am so excited about our family and all the places we are headed together!!



My little angel was a little smaller than thought...None of her clothes fit her...but lets face it she still makes it look good!!






My angel came out smiling!!



Not my shining moment in this world...lets say I did not handle the delivery with much grace...and but somehow I don't care :) I make no apologies for screaming at the doctor...a failed epidural will do that to a girl!!

Baby Ruby is coming to town....

Well Ruby made her big entrance on 12/8/09 at 6:52 am. She weighed 6 pounds 14 ounces. After a long and difficult pregnancy the labor and delivery was no different...BUT the silver lining in the story is that she is perfect...I will post more later...but baby needs to eat now...Clint and I are so grateful for all your love and support. We feel truly blessed to have so many people surrounding us that love us and support us!!
