Hunter is Half a Year

He is 6 months old and so much fun! We have been in Utah for 1 week and close on both our homes next week! I started my new job this week, Scott is in Houston packing up the house and Hunter is in Oregon visiting cousins. Life is crazy! But it is so fun! I fly back to Texas in a couple days to help Scott load up the truck and then we leave for good! Hunter will be in Oregon til Saturday, he is having so much fun spending time with his cousins! He is getting so big! Almost crawling!! Scooting and babbling! We love our Lil Hunt!

Hunter's Blessing

Hunter was blessed by his da on April 6th, 2013. We had him blessed while we were in Hawaii so we could have my family there. Nothing better than watching the sunset over the ocean right before your husband blesses your baby boy! Scott did such a good job, and Hunter looked so cute in his white outfit. We are so blessed to have a home where dad has the preistood and was able to give Hunter that special blessing. The only thing that could have made the day more prefect was if Scott family was there, but with us living in Houston this was our best option. We chose April 6th because that is the day ( 3years ago) that Scott and I were sealed in the Draper Temple.

Welcome Little Hunt!

He finally arrived! Hunter Scott Christensen, born January 3, 2013 at 7:49 pm, weighing 7 lbs 11 ounces, and 19.5 inches long.
We tried so hard to have a New Years baby, but little Hunt just wasn't budging. So the Doc agreed to induce at 39 weeks. We got to the hospital around 10:30 in the morning (when they finally had time for us) and started up on the pitosin right away. I had been contracting all morning so I was ready for the epidural as soon as possible! After that is was smooth sailing til about 4:30 pm when we started pushing. THREE HOURS LATER... at 7:49 our Little Hunt arrived. He was perfect. Ten fingers and Ten toes. Scott and I were exhausted! I've never seen a husband help so much during childbirth as Scott did. He was an awesome coach, traumatized, but awesome.
Two days later, on our 4 year anniversary (Jan 5th) we brought our little bundle of joy home. He has been such a blessing in ourhome, bringing out the best and worst in us but bringing Scott and I closer together. We have had to work as a team, taking turns rocking him at night, and taking turns sleeping!! But we love every minute of it!

Oh Boy!!!

That's right... We are having a boy and we are so excited!! No names yet! (any help is appreciated!) and we have the nursery about half way there and we are running out of time! I can't believe it! We have about 7 1/2 weeks left!! Unless he comes early... we're kinda hoping for Dec 31st :) Everything has been well so far, the doctor says he is big (hope that means he'll come a little early) and besides being uncomfortable ALL the time, its been an easy uneventful pregnancy! We've also been SOO spoiled... we were able to fly back home early October and have a baby shower with our families. We got tons of great stuff, but seeing our families was the best part! I also was blessed with a baby shower thrown by the ladies of our ward! So much fun to hang out with the girls and celebrate our little guy! ALSO last week Scott's coworkers threw a shower at his office! I was able to meet lots of his coworkers and had such a good time with crazy games and good food!! This little guys has already blessed us so much and we couldn't be more grateful for all the support and for our health so far. Only a couple more months and he'll be here. come on Christmas!!!
