We celebrated New Years 2010 with friends. Since I was already pregnant I was the designated driver. Everybody was really proud of me for staying up past 12 even though I didn't make it long after midnight.
January and February we celebrated some friends' birthdays while somebody else was busy growing inside my belly. Luckily, I was fortunate to not get morning sickness or any of the other nasty 1st trimester sickness stuff.

We also learned in February that I was carrying a healthy baby and we even got to see him for the first time.

March was a big month for us. I had the annual rodeo bulletproof party to work (such a great fundraiser event for the rodeo scholarship fund). We also found out I was carrying a boy! Jay and I were both overjoyed with the news.
We told Grandma and Grandpa in a very special way.
April we visited Grandma and Grandpa in New York. As they say....I finally popped! I was huge and flying was not fun.
May was pretty boring but in June we went on our annual beach trip with friends. I'll spare you the beach pictures because frankly I looked like a beached whale and nobody needs to see that.
July we spent enjoying Austin and our wonderful friends.
August was a really big month for us.
We enjoyed some time with friends.
I was able to celebrate my birthday in the most wonderful way possible. Happy 31st birthday to me!
At 2:00 pm on August 10, 2010 I went to my 39th week doctors appointment and she stripped my membranes. She also let me be induced but by 6:30 pm I was in full active labor.
After 27 hours of very intense and exhausting labor Jack was born at 9:07pm on August 11, 2010. He gave us a few very scary hours during labor but he came out screaming and perfect.
He got to meet his grammy.
He also met his godmother.
We finally got to go home and recover from being in the hospital. I still can't believe they let me leave with him.
At the end of August Jack met another very important man in his life. He got to meet grandpa for the first time. Grandpa traveled all the way from New York to see him.

September came and Jack got bigger and stronger. I think he finally realized who his parents were.
We went to our first baptism for our friend Reid.
October flew by. Jack continued to grow like a weed but did get dressed up for Halloween.
