Welcoming our Newest addition! It's a Boy!
Welcome to the world little one! Gavin Michael Toso was born at 12:35am on Friday, April 17th! Mommy delivered a successful VBAC (only 12 pushes!!). Here are some pictures and a video(Shawn would kill me if he knew, but it's too sweet not to), and when I find a bit more free time, a longer post will follow! Everyone is doing great, and we are excited to be home plus one!

Anxiously Awaiting our Arrival
Tip-toeing up to the final day, I find myself constantly second guessing the decision I make in regards to the baby(VBAC/C-Section). Had I chosen the c-section, baby would have arrived on April 7th and I would have been a week into recovery. Now, we sit and wait for the baby to be ready:) Problem comes if the baby isn't ready by Tuesday. I have an ultra-sound schedule for Wednesday, and a few tests. As of Wednesday, I set up the c-section, and no longer get the option of delivering. I thought I was in control of the decision, but am slowly figuring out that I am not in charge:) On the upside, if the baby doesn't come by Tuesday, it will be neat to see an ultra sound of a baby at 40+ weeks!
Easton has been quite the trouble maker latley(hense why there have been no posts!). He's not a bad kid by any means, just pushing the limits with mom and dad in regards to everything lately. Bed time is a debate, eating is a debate, picking up and even going places can turn into debates Please, please, please let this be the terrible 2's and 3's!
Aside from that, I can say that half stinker child of ours is the most caring and lovable thing you will ever meet(maybe a slight manipulator, but hey, that may get him far some day!!). Easton can walk into a room (especially with older women) and have them eating out of his hand in minutes. He knows just what to say, and how to look in order to get what he wants from a situation.....hmmm...could that be why mom and dad are in so deep??? Easton is constantly telling me he loves me, and always hugs me. He will stop in the middle of play several times to do so. If I am getting ready to go somewhere, he makes certain to say, "Hi pretty lady", or "mommy, your budaful", which melts my heart. He most often will thank us for taking him somewhere or tell us he had a great time without us having to remind him.
I will post some recent pics of us all, and hopefully be updating VERY soon with the news of baby!

A Merry New Year!
The break went fast, as it was filled with lots of activity! I enjoyed having the time off and getting to spend multiple full days with Easton and Shawn. It's tough getting out of the work routine and into full time mommy mode, only to get comfortable and have to switch back!
Christmas was so much fun this year. Easton was into santa, as well as opening presents. We spent Christmas Eve with our family at Aunt Missy's house and Christmas Day with family at Grandma and Grandpa Bozue's. Sunday we ventured to Waukegan to see Grandpa George and Grandma Eva. Easton was a little charmer as always and had everyone laughing and enjoying themselves. On New Years, we headed to Uncle Matt and Aunt Sally's house for dinner and fun. We headed home early so mommy and daddy could ring in the New Year together. The day after New Year's, everyone joined at our house for Daddy's homemade pizza....delicious as always!
We took advantage of the sled from Aunt Mandi and Uncle Michael and headed outside a couple times to enjoy the break in the weather. I only hope I can download from a camcorder the footage we got. Easton loved the sled and was so happy being pulled around in it. The neighbors yard slopes into ours, so that along with the layer of ice sent him across our front yard nicely! Icicles were another favorite. He enjoyed pulling them off of the patio furniture and crunching them.
Mommy and baby #2 are doing well! We had our 6 and 1/2 month doctor visit on Friday, and all looks and sounds great. We are (and will most likely be until the end)debating on whether or not we will try for a VBAC. If that doesn't work for us, the baby's due date will be April 4, 2009:)
