Blake James - Born (Happy Easter)
Our best friends, Trent & Tara, welcomed a little boy to their family on Easter Day. Blake James was born just before 3:00 in the afternoon on Sunday March 23rd. He was 7lbs 10oz. His mommy did such a GREAT job as her contractions started Friday morning and she didn't deliver Blake until Sunday afternoon. We're so proud of her.
You know, I've been around a lot of babies. It seems like everyone I know has kids now or is pregnant with their first -- even us. However it still feels a little strange when your best friends have their first baby. It's been just the four of us for so long it seems. And now they have a BABY. Tara's a mommy and Trent's a daddy. It's so awesome, but it's still hard for me to really wrap my mind around it. Am I making any sense?
But in a few short month Tim & I will join the parenting band wagon. It's all just a little surreal today though. To think that Tara and I were originally both due in March (last time I was pregnant). I'm so excited for August. Our babies will only be 5 months apart. Just the thought of welcoming our new little one to OUR family makes me tear up. Sheesh, I'm always so weepy these days (still blaming those pregnancy hormones).
CONGRATULATIONS TRENT & TARA! We love the three of you so much!
**Okay Ashlee, wipe the tears away and get back to work.**

Oh I have been waiting and waiting to see Blake (I hate that I am in Calgary!!). Thank-you sooo much for putting up pictures, I knew I could count on you! Just a few weeks and it'll be me, then you'll be next!!! Ya for babies!
Your friend is so beautiful for just having gave birth...and that baby, simply edible. What awe I am in.
What a handsome little man! She looks amazing for being in labor so long! Wow!
Is that your baby belly poking out a little I see? We so need belly shots!
