IT'S A BOY!!!

As you can tell, I have already slacked off with my blogging. I have a REALLY good reason though! On July 27th, I was blessed with one of the greatest gifts of my life - Stryder Jayton Crouch. Of course, there is a whole long story to tell about how he made his entrance into the world (and even a video of the c-section for those who might be interested.) But, the story will have to come at a later time since I am typing with only one hand right now since my sweet baby boy is asleep on my other arm. This will just serve as my "official" announcement of Stryder's birth. He was born at 5:34pm weighing 7 lbs. 7 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long. He is beautiful - and after only three weeks, it is hard to imagine what life was like without him. I am completely smitten! :)
