Well after what seemed to be a very long pregnancy for me with many ups and downs we finally had our baby!!! Arlon Joseph (A.J.) was born Wed. April 7th. He has been so much fun to have around and the kids are totally in love with him, maybe a little too much! A.J. weighed in at 8 lbs 15 oz and was 19 inches long. He struggled the first 24 hours to maintain his blood sugar levels so we had a lot of heel poking to keep that checked but he has done a lot better since then. He was named after my dear brother in law (Dusty's brother) who lost his battle with cancer last year and after my grandfather who passed away the end of March this year. We love having him around and the sweet spirit he brings with him. We are so blessed to have him in our family and love every one of our 5 kids so much. WOW we have 5 kids that's pretty crazy!!! I am so thankful that i have the opportunity to be their mom and to teach and love them. What a joy they all are and how blessed we have been to be able to have such wonderful kids. 
Here's the whole gang!!
