Today is the Day

This morning we learned that Tristan tends to take a little bit after his daddy. Following his dad's habit of getting an early start on the workweek, he surprised us with Sharee's water breaking this morning around 2:30 AM.


After a quick throwing of things in the car we we're off to Dallas Presby. We've been camping out here in a room in the labor and delivery wing and they say that we're about 8/10ths of the way towards the real kickoff of this party.

Of course, thanks for all the last minute labor and delivery advice from the savy veterans of Aunt Abbie and Aunt Courtney. All those text messaged breathing tips are sure to come in handy in a few hours.

For all of those that we woke up this morning Texas, Florida, Indiana and Michigan our son promises that he isn't sorry and that he's just excited to meet you all.

Ironic that we just took some pregnancy pictures of Sharee just yesterday. We're almost 36 weeks along, a month early but so far everything is looking good. We're very thankful for the past 6 weeks.

We'll keep you posted as the day moves forward. Hopefully by sometime this afternoon we'll have a healthy little boy.

A soon to be father excited beyond belief - Justin

Sharee!!!!!! Yay for you guys! I'm so excited for you! I've been thinking (just this weekend, especially) about how out of touch I've been, and wondering how you were doing. So yay for Tristan coming today! So exciting! We'll certainly pray for a strong, healthy little boy and mommy. Oh yeah, and daddy, too. :)
