I am happy to announce the arrival of my perfect little girl:
CLARA ISABEL HEDRICK
Her name means: Brilliant; Shining Light; Consecrated to God!
Born: Feb 3rd, 2010
Time: 2:22am
Weight: 6lbs and 9 oz
Length: 20 inches
Isn’t she beautiful!?
And with every family of five comes a….Minivan! So, yesterday we bought a Honda Odyssey and it’s beautiful – really, it’s BEAUTIFUL! Probably the prettiest car I’ve ever seen…I know some of you are laughing right now but, I told Matt that he bought me my dream car and I meant it! There’s something really amazing about joining the ranks of “BIG” families and having the freedom to bring extra kids along anytime we want! For those of you who don’t have a van you can keep laughing at me…I don’t mind!
I also wanted to announce the WINNER OF THE “GUESS HER BIRTH-DATE” Contest…actually there are two!
Vicki Willcock AND Yvette Edwards
One thing I didn’t think through was what will happen when two people gets certain portions of the questions right and I guess the answer is they tie!
Here’s what they guessed:
Vicki – Tuesday, February 2nd, 6 lbs 8oz. and 19 inches.
Yvette: I am going to say Tuesday Feb 2 at around 10pm and I think she will be 7lbs 2 oz and 19 1/2 inches long.
They tied on the date, Vicki won for weight, and Yvette won for length…so, I’m going to bite the bullet and award them both a $15 Itunes Gift Card! A special thank you to everyone else who played!
I’m home and overwhelmed with joy! Feeling great even though I know I won’t be getting a lot of sleep of the coming months. There is grace and I will need it!

As most of you know…we’re having a baby! Our third and final (we think!) I’m 37 weeks and ticking. I don’t know when we will be having this baby but, since I have to wait I thought I’d make a little contest of it!
So, here’s the contest:
The person closest to guessing the right day, right length and right weight…wins a $15 ITUNES gift card!
(BONUS: You can try and guess the name too…but, I doubt anyone will guess it!)
NOTE: If you’re reading this on Facebook…You HAVE to click here and post a comment on my blog so, all the contest results are together.
HERE’S SOME HELPFUL HINTS:
Due Date: Feb.21st, 2010.
Adriah was born nine days early at 8 lbs and 21 1/2 inches.
Leyton was born 2 1/2 weeks early at 6 lbs and 14 oz, 19 1/2 inches.
I hope tons of you will play because it will give me something to do over the next few days. Can’t wait to see who wins!

Over the past few years of my blogging life I’ve shared many stories and personal moments. i have no regrets. I love blogging and connecting with people (ones I know and ones that just know me.)
Today I sat down to talk to you and instead I started by reading my sister-in-law’s blog…you know how that happens? Well, I was so inspired by her blog I thought all of you should read it instead. Click here: Il Bel Far Niente – Rachel’s Blog was about a local singer-songwriter named Sara Groves and her recent trip to Africa. (Definitely watch the video!) With everything that’s been happening in Haiti over the last few weeks…it really touched my heart.
I hope your heart is blessed as mine was.
