Little Spencer has Arrived!

Levi and I are so so happy for our new little addition to our family! Spencer Levi Darrington was born June 23rd, 2010 at 3:52 am. He weighs 8lbs 6oz and is 18 1/4 inches long. So I know that we were all expecting him to be here the 28th but I think he had plans of his own. I started to feel abdominal pain at about 7:30 on Tues night, I didn't think much of it because it seemed like every time I thought I was having contractions, it was just cramps. So it wasn't until around 11:00 when they still hadn't gone away and were actually getting worse, that I started to worry. After much debate, we decided, better to be safe than sorry, so we called the on call doctor. He of course told us to come to the hospital... so we did! I was definitely having contractions and was dilated 1cm, so they decided to do an emergency c-section.
I am so glad to let you all know that everything went smoothly, with no complications. He had surgery to close up his back yesterday afternoon, and he is recovering well from that too! I want all of you to know how grateful we are for your thoughts and prayers, I know they are being heard, and that the Lord is watching over him!
He is so cute!

This is my first visit to see Spencer after his surgery!

Little guy has already been through so much, and not even been here a day yet! He's tough!

Spencers little room...Also other pics of our new home!

Here's a bunch of pics I took of our new townhouse, for those who have been begging to see them! I didn't take any of the basement, because we had a little floodige go on down there, so it is a work in progress!
I am so grateful for the wonderful ward we live in. We have been blessed with so many good friends, who want to help us out! Kate Downs a friend in our ward, gave us her crib and dresser, she is such a sweetheart! Also, I had yet another awesome baby shower here! So between the shower I had at home in Utah, and here, we will definitely be able to get everything we need! Thank you so much to all my wonderful family and friends! I love you all so much!
Now that I have the crib set up, and almost everything we need for Spencer, I am getting sooooo excited to welcome him into our little home! I just can't wait!

Las Mananitas, this was a really good Authentic Restaurant!

Don't worry, it was bottled water without ice!




















This was a really beautiful beach at La Playa del Carmen! (don't you just love the white sand!)


5th Avenue at La Playa del Carmen, this is where you go to buy really cheap stuff!


Levi took me on a little boat cruise, and then we had a really nice dinner for Valentines Day!

Our Steak and Lobster dinner on the beach! It was really good!

I just love all the colors!

The temple at Chichen Itza! This is one of the 7 wonders of the world! It was awesome!



I guess they must have played tic tac toe too!:)


The backside of the temple... this is what it really looked like without being fixed up!



This vacation was Awesome!

This snowstorm happend while we were babysitting the Whitney family for 5 days! (they are a family in our ward.)
