We are having such a fun time with our new little girl. I am tired though. I forgot what the first few weeks are like, getting up and feeding and changing and burping.....It's a good thing she is so cute. I guess we will keep her:) It is so amazing how God creates a little life and then how perfectly they come-- and it is incredible the love your heart feels for them. It is like no feeling I can descibe-- and to think that is the way the Father who made the world and holds the moon and stars feels about me (only more perfect)... Crazy. Thanks for everyone's good thoughts and wishes. I am going to print off the blog so I can put it in Sydney's baby book. It's awesome that we have so many people who love and care for us. I am feeling so blessed.... so my love back to everyone, and I can't wait for you all to meet our newest beauty. Oh, And by the way Gemma, I love the name Josephina Willamena:) I had a thought, you could call your boy Jamal!!

Keep checking for more pics
I have lots, lots more pics on the camera and will put more up really soon. When Ray gets a minute to do it-- I don't know how!!! I will post some of Auntie Leah, and her big bros soon.
Still figuring out how to blog....
Sorry everyone,
I can't figure out how to send pics and keep writing things underneath them--- When I do stuff like this on the computer I feel like an old lady!!! Not sure of how to use it!
Well, she's here. I can't believe I have a baby girl. It is so exciting to be able to dream of dolls, dresses and bows. You all know what a girly girl I am-- YAY!!!
Her name is Sydney Rae and for those who don't know- She shares her name with her Daddy- He is Sidney Ray. So we are all doing well. I got to go home last night, though she was only born the night before- the 7th at 7:38 weighing 6lbs 14 ounces and 20 inches long. I think Ray being a doc gave us some extra pull. She has been so good so far.... nice and quiet.
i am great!!! Feeling so good and I can't wait to show her off to one and all. Anyone heading our way, come see us. Thanks for all the love -- Leanne printed off the blog and brought the comments in to the hospital and made my day!!! Now, I am going to check Danielle's site. So fun- so many of us having babes together, and I am sure there is lots more excitement to come -I think we should take bets on who will be next....

Update :o)
Hello everyone!
Well, it is I, Leanne, Kim's faithful secretary. :p She asked that I keep everyone up to date on everything that's happening. After waiting all week long, She went to the hospital early this morning...where she waited some more. We weren't sure if the baby was ever going to come. However, We got a phone call at 11:30 this morning to let us know that the baby was on her/his way! So, please keep them both in your prayers!! I'll be sure to let you all know whenever anything happens.
Luke, Jacob, Eric, Dad, and myself are in Sussex waiting for the boys to have a nap before we head into Moncton. Luke and Jacob know the baby is coming and this morning we even drew some pictures for the new baby Butler. I asked Luke what he was drawing and he told me it was a picture of the baby's new house. I asked him why the baby needed a new house and apparently, the new baby isn't going to be living here with the rest of the family, instead he/she is going to be living in a cabin... where Luke and Jacob will go to visit every once and a while. :p hahaha! Ahh, the things kids think of.
Well, I should be going for now. Don't worry, I'll update, take pictures, and take any messages to Kim! Take Care, Everyone!!!

ARGHHHH!!!!
So,

SO, For everyone waiting, praying, and thinking of us- we will let you know as soon as we can.

Okay, will this be my baby's birthday??
Here I am at 7:22 waiting and waiting to make another phone call to the hospital to see what is going to happen today. My Doctor is wanting to induce me- she is scared with the quickness of my labour that I won't get to the hospital in time (and I am too--- that would be terrible!! Delivering a baby in a car on the side of the road would not be fun!) Anyway, she wanted to do it a week ago, but Ray and I decided we wanted to at least wait till my due date, which was monday--- well, she's been checking me and the baby's head seems quite high, so we decided to push back the induction from monday to Wednesday -- seemed like the longest wait. Wednesday night I hardly slept and I woke up a ball of nerves, stomach ache, the whole bit. so we start calling, and they continually tell us to call back in half hour increments to see if there was room--- there happened to be a lot of deliveries yesterday...... till finally my doc calls and says we will probably do it all over again tomorrow!!!- which is today, and why I sit all dressed, all nerves once again waiting;)
Yesterday, when I was waiting and at 6 am or so I decided to read my Bible to comfort me nerves.... God has a sense of humour --- He made me laugh in the middle of my fear-- I just thought I would read a Psalm. The one I happened to read was Psalm48 and God is talking about subduing the enemy -- vs 6 says "trembling seized them there, pain like that of a woman in labour" --- I was like " Oh great, thanks God -- and I started to laugh. of all the verses in all the Bible...
Well, the kids are looking forward to meeting the newest babe. Luke says he really wants a boy to be "Just like Yukey (that's how he says his name) and he wants us to call him Yukey too, but Jacob says he wants a girl-- he wants to remain the baby brother. so cute- Either way, they are going to have some adjusting to do. as we all will- But I can't wait to have another angel to cuddle.
So, hopefully my next blog will contain pics of our new little one and hopefully it will be soon.
Pray for us. Thanks friends....
ps. I am loving the blog thing --- It makes me so happy to see and hear stuff about everyone... though Ray says he never sees me anymore as I always have my nose in the laptop!!!
